AI workflow Intake Workflow Agent?

The Intake Workflow Agent is the AI workflow automation capability built into Procbay.

Working as the requisition management layer, it captures demand from any team or channel, classifies and enriches each purchase request, and drives it through automated approval routing — so procurement process automation starts at the very first step.
