Developing Custom Workflows in Paperclip
A Paperclip workflow is a programmed sequence of agent actions with branching logic, conditions, and loops. Unlike ad-hoc tasks, a workflow is repeatable and predictable. We develop workflows for specific business processes.
What is Paperclip Workflow?
Workflow is a graph of agent steps: each step is executed by an agent with specific tools, and the output is passed to the next step. Supported features include parallel execution, conditional branching, loop-until-a-criterion, and human approval gates.
Examples of custom workflows
Content Production Workflow:
- Research Agent → collecting information on the topic (from 5 sources in parallel)
- Outline Agent → material structure (after collection)
- Writer Agent (x2 in parallel) → draft section 1 + section 2
- Editor Agent → check and connect
- [Human Approval] → editor reviews
- SEO Agent → Optimization of titles and metadata
- Publisher Agent → publishing in CMS
Lead Processing Workflow:
- Enrichment Agent → data enrichment from open sources
- Scoring Agent → conversion probability assessment
- [Branch] High score → Sales Agent sends a personalized email
- [Branch] Low score → Nurture Agent adds to email sequence
- CRM Agent → status update in CRM
Development and testing
The workflow is developed in Paperclip, a visual editor, and uses YAML definitions. Testing is performed on synthetic data before launching on real data. A/B testing of workflow variations is performed to optimize results.
