KI in der Prozessautomatisierung Vol. 2:
KI-Workflows in der Praxis

Webinar am 9. Juli 2026, 10:00 - 10:30 Uhr

Viele Unternehmen haben erste KI-Prototypen umgesetzt – doch der eigentliche Mehrwert entsteht erst im produktiven Prozess. In diesem Webinar zeigen wir, wie KI-Funktionen zuverlässig in bestehende Workflows integriert werden: mit klarer Prozesslogik, Human-in-the-Loop, Governance und Fallbacks für unsichere Ergebnisse.

 

Sie erfahren, wie aus einzelnen KI-Ideen belastbare Prozesse werden und wie klassische Workflow-Automatisierung und KI sinnvoll zusammenspielen. Live dabei sein lohnt sich: Stellen Sie Ihre Fragen direkt und erhalten Sie im Nachgang Aufzeichnung, Folien und Q&A.
