Tonkean

Tonkean is an enterprise-grade process orchestration platform that uses artificial intelligence to automate and coordinate business workflows across teams and systems. Think of it as the missing link between all your business applications, creating seamless experiences for employees who need to get things done.

The platform specializes in "process orchestration," which means it doesn't just automate individual tasks—it manages entire workflows that involve multiple people, departments, and software systems. For example, when someone submits a purchase request, Tonkean can automatically check company policies, route it to the right approver, create purchase orders in your procurement system, and send updates to everyone involved.

Founded in 2015 and trusted by companies like Google, Netflix, and Instacart, Tonkean stands out because it requires no coding skills and works with your existing tools. You can build complex automated processes using simple drag-and-drop tools, making it accessible to business users rather than just IT professionals.

Getting started with Tonkean is straightforward, even if you're not technical. First, you'll work with their team to set up your account and connect your existing business applications like email, Slack, Salesforce, or your procurement system.

Here's how to build your first automated process:

• Define your workflow: Map out your current manual process, identifying all the steps and people involved

• Use the drag-and-drop builder: Create your automated workflow using simple visual tools—no coding required

• Set up triggers: Choose what starts your process, like receiving an email or filling out a form

• Add approvals and routing: Define who needs to approve what and when

• Connect your systems: Link to existing tools so data flows automatically between them

• Test and refine: Run through your process to make sure everything works as expected

Pro tips for success:

• Start with simple processes before tackling complex ones

• Involve end-users in designing workflows they'll actually use
