Regisseur · Product Walkthrough

From a blank canvas to a running case — built by the person who owns the process.

Follow Renata Kessler, an Operations Lead at Woodgrove Life, as she draws a new workflow, builds and tests an AI agent for it, connects the pieces together, and then watches a real case run through it — start to finish, in one sitting.

About this walkthrough

Every frame in this walkthrough is a real screenshot from one continuous session against a live Regisseur environment — the workflow, agent, form, and case shown were all created during the session you're watching, and the case advanced because the platform ran it, not because anything was staged. The AI prompt drafting, the simulation, and the agent's assessment of the submitted request are live model calls. The intake form was onboarded the way it works in production: a PDF form document uploaded, its fields extracted, and mapped — the document itself was written for the fictional Woodgrove Life. The walkthrough narrates a small cast (Renata, Owen); on screen you'll see the single demo operator account that genuinely performed every step. Saving a workflow makes it immediately available to run — there is no separate publish step for workflows — while agents are published as versioned snapshots, and the running case stays pinned to the versions it started with (final chapter).

Chapter 1
A blank canvas
Before any AI or automation exists, there is an empty template with a name.
1 Start
Where every workflow starts
Renata Kessler, an Operations Lead at Woodgrove Life, opens the workflow library — every process the company runs lives here side by side, ready to reuse, adjust, or build from nothing.
Where every workflow starts
2 Start
Naming the new process
She starts a brand-new workflow: "Beneficiary Change Request" — the process for when a policyholder asks Woodgrove Life to change who receives their benefit.
Naming the new process
3 Start
A blank canvas
A blank canvas. Nothing is pre-built for her — Renata will draw the whole process herself, one step at a time.

Chapter 2
Drawing the workflow
The whole shape of the process, drawn node by node and checked before it can run.
4 Graph
The first step: intake
The first node goes down: Beneficiary Change Intake, the point where a policyholder’s request enters the workflow.

5 Graph
Four steps, drawn end to end
The whole process now has a shape: Intake → AI Risk Assessment → Manager Approval → Change Effective. Renata drew all four steps and the connections between them before writing a line of logic.

6 Graph
The platform checks its own work
Before anything can run, Regisseur verifies the graph on its own — every node reachable, every path resolved, nothing left dangling. A clean pass, with no separate manual audit needed to catch a broken workflow.

Chapter 3
Building the agent
An AI agent, drafted with AI assistance and proven safe in simulation before it touches a real case.
7 Agent
A new AI agent, from scratch
Renata creates "Beneficiary Change Assessor" — the AI agent that will handle the judgment work at the Risk Assessment step.

8 Agent
Drafting the agent’s judgment, with AI help
Rather than write the agent’s instructions from a blank page, Renata describes what she needs in plain English and lets AI draft the first version — she reviews and refines it before it goes near a real request.

9 Agent
Defining what goes in, and what comes out
The agent’s input (the requested change) and output (a risk rating and its reasoning) are defined as structured schemas, so its judgment always comes back in a shape the rest of the workflow can rely on.

10 Agent
A deterministic, inspectable pipeline
The agent’s actual behavior is a sequence of concrete steps — read the request, call the AI model for a risk judgment, write the result to the case. Nothing hidden inside a black box; every step can be reviewed and tested on its own.

11 Agent
Testing it before it ever touches a real case
Renata runs the agent in simulation with sample input — the AI step executes for real, but no case is touched and nothing is saved. She can see exactly how it behaves before trusting it with a real request.

Chapter 4
Wiring it together
The graph, the agent, and the intake form connect into one workflow — each stays an independent, reusable piece.
12 Wiring
Assigning the agent to its step
Back on the graph, the Risk Assessment node is wired to the Beneficiary Change Assessor agent she just built — the shape of the process and the AI judgment come together.

13 Wiring
Connecting the intake form
The Intake node is bound to "Woodgrove Life — Beneficiary Change Intake" — a real form Renata onboarded minutes earlier by uploading the PDF Woodgrove already uses and mapping its fields to the case record. The form and the node stayed independent pieces right up to this moment, joined here at design time — not hard-coded into each other.

Chapter 5
From design to running case
The moment a design becomes a real case — and the platform runs it, end to end.
14 Run
From design to a real case
With the workflow saved, Renata creates a real case from it — the moment a template stops being a design and starts being work in progress.

15 Run
The case, running
The case is live. Intake is underway, and the rest of the workflow — exactly as she drew it — is already waiting behind it.
The case, running
16 Run
The agent’s judgment, held for human eyes
The agent has read the submitted request and produced its real assessment — a risk level, a recommended action, and its reasoning. Because Renata set this agent to always be reviewed, its work waits here for a person before the case moves on.

17 Run
The agent does its job, for real
The Beneficiary Change Assessor runs its live risk assessment. This is the same model call and the same pipeline Renata built minutes earlier — now executing for real, against a real case.

18 Run
A person makes the final call
The AI’s assessment reaches the Manager Approval step. It informs the decision — Owen Marsh, the team manager, reviews it and approves before the change is allowed to take effect.

19 Run
The change takes effect
With the manager’s approval, Change Effective completes and the case closes. The whole process Renata drew, built, and tested minutes earlier just ran a real request, start to finish.
