Your systems should do the work. Not your people.
We automate your workflows, build AI agents, and help your whole company put AI to work, with a person approving what matters. For executives, sales, operations and finance teams.
Automation
Data that moves itself. Orders, inventory, approvals, reconciliations and month-end entries run on schedule, check their own work, and alert a person when something is off.
AI Agents
Agents that triage documents, enter data, draft follow-ups and answer routine questions. Anything that posts, pays or sends waits for a person.
AI Adoption
We find where AI pays off in your business, set the guardrails, and train your people on their real work.
Also: Live dashboards and intelligent reports · ERP implementation, migration and recovery · Managed plans that keep it all running
You approve a design before we build. Every number ties to its source. Everything is handed over documented.
Automaton is a Chicago consultancy led by founder Shawn McDonough. The person who scopes your work is the person who builds it.
Let's talk about your systems
Whether it's a migration you're weighing, a go-live that went sideways, a close that takes too long, or a dashboard you wish existed — the first conversation is free, and you'll get a straight answer.
