Advanced Cassidy AI Controls and Automation
Build reliable workflows with stronger logic, integrations, and oversight.
Duration: 1 Day
Effective AI automation must do more than generate useful responses. It must follow business rules, use approved information, handle exceptions, and preserve human control over important actions. Cassidy AI provides these capabilities through configurable Agents, multi-step Workflows, permission-aware knowledge access, organizational instructions, and approval-controlled connectors.
This course concentrates on improving the reliability, control, and operational value of Cassidy AI solutions used for document processing, underwriting support, referrals, and business-system activities. The instructor has over 30 years of industry experience and will use real, industry-demanded content rather than an academic approach.
