Introduction

Tallyfy is a workflow platform designed for non-technical people.

Problems Tallyfy solves

  • How can AI help create procedures quickly instead of writing for hours?
  • How do you ensure people actually follow processes?
  • How can tasks get done without constant reminders?
  • How do you prevent tasks from being forgotten?
  • How can you improve processes that nobody follows?
  • How can AI automate tasks when everyone does them differently?
  • How do you make sure work gets done the same way every time?

These are massive, under-rated problems. You can’t use AI effectively without agreed processes that people already follow. It’s like trying to build a roof without a foundation!

1. Document - Store instructions

Keep all procedures in one place. People forget things (the “Forgetting Curve”), so having everything centralized helps everyone do things right. But if nobody reads it - what’s the point?

2. Track - Follow progress

See who’s doing what with automatic reminders. Using guides helps people learn, cuts update meetings, and ensures consistent, predictable work.

3. Improve - Keep getting better

Use AI to improve and automate processes. Bake in improvements without retraining.

Improve 1% each day and you’ll end up 37 times better after a year. James Clear

You can’t improve or automate steps that aren’t documented and followed. Repeatable processes are far more valuable than projects because they’re standardized, predictable, automatable, and improvable.

What does Tallyfy do?

  • Document processes clearly
  • Launch standard workflows easily
  • Track task progress live
  • Automate repetitive steps

Have lots of small papercuts?

Many vital processes lack dedicated software and are managed via email, chat or spreadsheets. Tallyfy empowers business users to:

  • Document them as reusable templates
  • Launch and track them consistently
  • Automate steps where possible

This self-service approach reduces wasted effort and brings visibility to all workflows.

What kinds of processes is it best for?

Focus on processes currently managed manually where no dedicated app exists.

Tallyfy excels for processes that:

  • Need structured data: Consistent information collection
  • Are frequent: Occur often enough to benefit from digitization
  • Require standardization: Must be done the same way for quality/compliance
  • Need to scale: Establish correctly now to handle higher volumes later
  • Are complex: Many steps or conditional rules hard to remember
  • Require audit trails: Proof of who completed what
  • Need tracking: Visibility for workers, managers, leaders, or customers
  • Must be predictable: Everyone knows what happened and what’s next

Key benefits

  • Save time: Reduce routine work
  • Control quality: Maintain consistent standards
  • Show real-time status: Track progress live
  • Automate handovers: Smooth task transitions
  • Improve continuously: Use data and feedback

Tallyfy’s unique focus

  • Repeatable processes, not one-off projects
  • Simple conditional logic (“if-this-then-that”)
  • Workflows centered on tasks
  • Integrated documentation with automation

Getting started

Start with Tallyfy in phases:

  1. Document and centralize. Create templates using AI or import existing documents. Centralize your SOPs.
  2. Launch and track. Launch templates as active processes. Track completion and introduce tasks.
  3. Automate and improve. Add automations. Use analytics to refine templates.

1. Create or upload a template

Templates are central to Tallyfy:

  • Build from scratch
  • Use AI to generate drafts
  • Import existing procedures

Two main types:

Example customer onboarding template:

Customer Onboarding Template Example

2. Launch processes from templates

Launch specific instances called processes:

  1. Choose your template
  2. Name descriptively (e.g., “Onboarding for Samsung”)
  3. Enter kick-off information
  4. Assign people
  5. Launch

3. Track progress

Tallyfy automatically:

  • Assigns tasks
  • Sends email updates
  • Tracks completion
  • Manages handoffs

Process status view:

Task detail view:

4. Continuously improve templates

  • Collect feedback via comments
  • Monitor task durations
  • Update templates easily
  • Make lasting improvements

Best practices for template creation

Creating procedures

Start with a basic outline

List main steps, add details later. Use AI for initial drafts:

Create a template using Tallyfy AI

Write clear step descriptions

Begin with action verbs:

  • Good: “Email the estimate to the customer”
  • Avoid: “Customer estimate handling”

Add helpful media

Include images/videos for complex instructions:

Insert Media

Use the right task types

Select appropriate types (Task, Approve/Reject, Email Draft):

Approval Tasks

Assign clear responsibility

Assign Task

Set realistic deadlines

Specify Deadline

Use automation rules

Apply conditional logic:

Automation Rules

Plan data collection

Use kick-off forms:

Creating documents

Document templates create forms for platform use.

Add fields

Click New Field for various form fields:

Reuse existing fields

Ensure consistency:

Tallyfy vs. traditional tools

Vs. document tools (Word, Google Docs, wikis)

  • Actually run and launch - not just read
  • Integrated tasks within documentation
  • Reusable snippets
  • Automatic translation
  • Version control
  • Viewing stats

Vs. spreadsheets

  • Structured workflow management
  • No version conflicts
  • Role-based access
  • Process automation
  • Real-time tracking
