AI that finds your team’s workflows and hidden structures
480 followers
Panorama analyzes your workplace data to recommend hidden structures and AI workflows your team can run together. Nobody has time to sit down, look at everything their team does, and figure out which parts a computer could handle. Panorama does that for you. It watches how your team works, finds the parts that are always the same, and says “I’ll do that from now on.” Use the code PH1MONTH for your first month off!
What are common patterns you've seen in terms of workflows teams find themselves getting stuck in that are able to be automated? What do the ideal solutions generally look like?

@zacharyziegler Hi Zack :) We're working now on expanding the system to better cover team use cases not just individual, so I'm really excited to see what interesting automations pop out.
A few we've seen that we're excited to support are scheduling meetings for large groups with complicated calendars (for example the automation would be "find all the people in a slack thread, cross-reference their calendars to find an open slot, then send an invite"), and taking meeting notes and turning them into tasks, and tracking the tasks as they get finished (this one might be "take the granola notes from our meeting, and post a message in the #eng channel of slack with a list of action items tagging the assignees. If they thumbs up, turn it into a ticket. If they thumbs down or don't reply, ask for clarification").
We can do the first one already, the second one the system can't tackle yet but we're excited to continue building toward this!
really like the idea of discovering workflows you didn't even know you had — that's the hard part most automation tools skip. curious about the data access though, connecting slack + notion + linear means panorama sees a lot. how are you handling data privacy and what's the retention policy? also wondering how it deals with teams that have messy, inconsistent processes
Panorama
@abhisheksinha123 data is encrypted and stored temporarily, so we can't read your data (and you can disconnect and have your data deleted at any time). Messy, inconsistent data is actually our favorite kind, the system is designed for working with unstructured data so no need to spend time cleaning things up!
This sounds very helpful! Curious how this works for companies with strict privacy regulations. Does Panorama store the workflow data it collects for training, or is it processed and discarded?
Panorama
@olga_kargopolova good point, we hear this worry a lot especially around slack data. We encrypt the embeddings of the data, it means we aren’t able to read it, and storage is only temporary and gets deleted. The longer term plan is to train specialized models so we don’t send user’s data to big labs.

This is what I imagined when hearing about AI agents and automated workflows. I see how the value prop is clear, but I'm curious how you handle the tension between insight and surveillance. I
How do you think about the line between 'helpful visibility for managers' and 'employees feeling monitored'? Has that come up in beta?"
Panorama
@baruns this is a great question.
at this exact moment, we are surfacing individual workflows and insights (hidden structures) to themselves.
the next iteration will be surfacing individual & team workflows and hidden structures with public info: like public slack messages, public docs etc.
i think the focus of your question is: will panorama use private info (private messages, emails) to surface patterns to leadership, this is something we are exploring. on a high level, from my own work experiences: i know there were teams/team dynamics/leadership i trusted where i wanted them to know 99% of my private info (emails/private messages) so they can help me and understand all the work i was carrying out and there were teams where i felt the opposite.
i think what's interesting is, just because the possibility is there, it makes everyone of us to have a way to reflect on the type of team dynamics we are in.

@jingweihao Totally agree on the trust aspect. Individual-level makes sense, but once it becomes team-wide, it feels like a different game.
And if the workflow is complex, can your AI handle it? For example: open a website, copy specific information from a page into Excel, connect to email, write an email using a specific template, etc. This requires integrations with different systems and using programs on a computer.

@natalia_iankovych panorama right now does not support computer use.
@jingweihao Will it? Is it in the plans?
Panorama
@natalia_iankovych not at this moment, things might change down the road. are you thinking about trying Panorama out?
@jingweihao For now, no - I haven’t found a productivity app that could significantly increase my work speed. I need an app that can be controlled by voice, work across different web applications, and function in multiple programs on a MacBook. At the moment, this is still a very complex task for AI, but I’m sure that something like this will appear in the next 1–2 years, and I’ll buy a paid version.

Been following Panorama's journey since the early days! So pumped to see it launch and helping every team automate the right things. Huge congrats to Jingwei and the team!!

@rishi_builder :) thanks for supporting us all this time!
Panorama
@rishi_builder thank you for your support Rushi, let's catch up!
Panorama
@rishi_builder Love this, thanks for being an early supporter!

@rishi_builder just noticed you set up an automation to check for real time changes in a folder. The system doesn't support event triggers right now, it can only do schedule-based. I updated the system so it'll explain that better next time! Event triggers are on the road map :)

@jaclyn_lunger I ended up scheduling it daily. tbh realized that also works for my usecase. so all good!!
