About

Autostep is a desktop app installed across your organization to surface repetitive, high-cost tasks that fly under the radar. We rank them by cost and impact so you know what's worth automating, then build or find the right fix - whether that's an AI agent, a process change, or an existing tool.

SaaSSubscription

Autostep identifies repetitive tasks and costs within an organization, then finds or builds agents or process changes to automate them. It emphasizes operational intelligence, context mining, and auto-generated agents that integrate with existing tools.

Autostep discovers every process and its hidden cost, ranks tasks by dollar impact and ease of fix, and then deploys agents, prompts, templates, and workflow automations into current tools. It offers a desktop install, live departmental dashboards with task-level pricing, and automatic generation of agents and process changes to automate observed repetitive work. The platform continually updates through context mining and provides sources for answers, with outcomes measured against a baseline.

Who it’s for: Teams and organizations looking to reduce operational waste by automating repetitive tasks across departments, including admin, reporting, research, and communications.
