Reality check

The useful boundary is what works repeatedly in a real environment—not what looks impressive in a demo.

Works well when

High-volume digital work with stable rules and inputs
Processes where APIs are unavailable but interfaces are predictable
Teams with an exception queue and maintenance owner

Verify before buying

UI changes, credentials, audit logs and access controls
Correction effort when extraction is wrong
Whether an API integration would be simpler

Not a magic solution

A fix for a process no one can explain
A substitute for data governance
A set-and-forget bot after launch
