Where your data lands.

What you get from these updates.

The AI pulls live data from Jiandaoyun to answer your questions.

STATUS

Current stage tracking

The AI identifies exactly where a record sits in the approval chain. You'll know who has the request next.

DETAILS

Full record context

Your agent pulls specific data points from the record. You get the necessary context without manual searching.

By checking multiple records, you can see which steps are taking too long. This helps you find where things are stuck.
