An AI agent will run your worst policy faster than any employee ever could.
In my experience the backend data is already sitting in your systems and nobody reads it, because the reporting effort goes to sales and finance. So nobody can say why a policy exists, and the agent inherits it anyway.
Start with one customer pain point, design the journey from scratch, and draw the service design blueprint of what sits behind it before you automate anything.
