Cold-Chain Excursion Triage
When datalogger reads outside spec → immediate QA notification · lot quarantine · customer notification draft.
AI · AUTOMATION LIBRARY
Every trade operator solves the same problems. Margin slipping on a VIP order. Supplier cert expiring. LC documents missing 7 days before expiry. Cold-chain excursion at 3 AM. Customer's order frequency declining. The Automation library codifies the 20+ most-used patterns as ready-to-deploy workflows — modelled on patterns EDMA Group runs internally today, deployable in one click, customizable in Bot Studio's plain-English builder.
LIBRARY · LIVE WORKSPACE VIEW
Each card is a workflow drawn from patterns EDMA Group runs internally today. Click deploy and the agent is live in the workspace with default triggers, guardrails and channels. Click into Bot Studio and you can rewrite any part of it in plain English.
Each card is a real workflow shipped in v3 with its own trigger, action set, guardrails and audit chain. Customer percentages reflect TradeOS workspaces with the workflow active in April 2026.
FULL LIBRARY · v3 · APRIL 2026
Every workflow is named, scoped, and published with its typical customer percentage. Nothing is a "could be built" or "on the roadmap" — these are live in workspace today, with a default trigger, action chain, and guardrails. Customize any part of any one in Bot Studio.
Flag orders whose margin trends below threshold.
Supplier reports delay → ripple through affected orders + shipments.
Route customer amendment requests to the right approver based on impact.
Inventory drops below threshold → generate POs to alternate suppliers.
VIP customer order hits exception → immediate escalation chain.
Monitor LC docs · auto-remind supplier + forwarder at T-14 / T-7 / T-3.
Customer late > N days → draft chase, escalate to sales after reminders.
Unhedged FX exposure exceeds threshold → alert treasury + propose hedge.
Supplier invoice received → match to PO + flag discrepancies.
Watch cert expiry · alert at T-30 / T-14 / T-7 · block new POs at T-0.
Quarterly review of regulatory changes by destination jurisdiction.
Periodic re-screening of all counterparties against updated lists.
Detect declining order frequency, payment delays, communication tone shift.
Flag relationship milestones for the sales team.
Re-tier customers on rolling 12-month spend + behavior.
Monthly auto-generated scorecard per supplier — OTD, defect rate, response.
BRC / IFS / SQF / ISO audit calendar with reminders.
Monitor freight cost vs plan on VIP routes; alert + draft customer note.
Shipment ETA changes → ripple to customer notifications + warehouse.
Datalogger reads outside spec → immediate QA notify · lot quarantine · customer draft.
HOW IT WORKS
Choose a template from the library. Open it in Bot Studio to adjust the trigger, recipients, guardrails or channels in plain English. Deploy as an active agent. Full audit chain on every action; edit any time.
Open the library. Scroll or filter by category. Read each card's description, the deployment count, and the typical customer profile. You're seeing what your peers run, not a marketing menu.
Bot Studio opens with the template pre-loaded. Trigger, action, guardrails, channels — adjust each in plain English. Alert procurement and the GM at T-7. Block new POs from this supplier at T-0.
Active agent in workspace. Audit chain on every action — who was notified, what was sent, what the operator approved. Edit any time in Bot Studio; new logic applies forward.
BUILD YOUR OWN
The library covers the 20+ patterns most operators need. For anything else, Bot Studio is the plain-English builder. Start from a library template (closest match), customize in plain English, deploy.
The library is the floor. Bot Studio is the ceiling. Most operators run a mix — half the library deployed as-is, half forked into Bot Studio variants that match their own SOPs.
Library defaults shown in gold. Anything to the right is the same workflow, customized in Bot Studio.
ALWAYS GROWING
EDMA Group tracks the patterns built in Bot Studio across its own internal use. The most common Bot Studio agents will be promoted to library workflows once public v1 ships — packaged, hardened, audited, made deployable in one click for everyone.

ADVANCED PATTERNS
Three workflows you might already have running can compose into a fourth — a single Bot Studio agent that ties them together. The library is the floor; chained workflows are how operators build the second layer of automation on top of it.
Not in the library by default. One Bot Studio agent away — and ~3 of these get promoted to the library every month.
TRUST ARCHITECTURE
Nothing in the library bypasses the controls that govern the rest of the AI suite. Every deployment is configurable per workspace, audited per action, and constrained by the same guardrails the operator already trusts elsewhere.
Configurable per deployment. One-step approve/reject by default; multi-tier per amount, role, or counterparty.
per deploymentEvery workflow action — who triggered it, what was sent, who approved it, what changed — logged and exportable.
SOC 2 · ISO 27001Daily action caps, time windows, content rules, recipient allow-lists. Set at deploy; tunable in Bot Studio.

The honest comparison against the obvious alternatives. Zapier and n8n have huge libraries, but they're generic. The Automation library is small on purpose — every workflow is trade-specific, customer-tested, and chained to the operational graph.

FAQ
If you have a sixth, we'd rather answer it on a call than write it here.
Yes. Every workflow opens in Bot Studio with its full plain-English description, triggers, actions, and guardrails visible. Edit any part. Nothing about a library workflow is a black box — it is a Bot Studio agent that EDMA has packaged, hardened, and made deployable in one click.
Book a 30-minute demo. Tell us three things your operators currently chase by hand — cert expiries, LC docs, freight spikes, AR follow-up, whatever. We'll find each one in the library, deploy them into a sandbox workspace, and you'll watch them fire against last week's data.
