Safely Modernize Salesforce Automation with AI

Flow Builder is powerful but graph generation and replacement are difficult to diff and can overwrite unrelated logic. SF Agent does not create new Flows. It uses reviewable, tested Apex for new automation and fails closed unless a small existing-Flow update proves the Salesforce baseline was preserved.

Manual
30-90 min per flow
With SF Agent
~4 min

The Manual Way

  1. 1Open Flow Builder and choose the flow type
  2. 2Design the trigger entry conditions
  3. 3Add decision elements, loops, assignments, and record operations
  4. 4Configure fault paths for each DML operation
  5. 5Optimize to avoid hitting governor limits (bulkify loops)
  6. 6Debug in Flow Debug mode with test records
  7. 7Activate and test across record types and profiles

With SF Agent

  1. 1Describe the automation trigger and logic in plain English
  2. 2SF Agent evaluates the current org and selects secure Apex or LWC + Apex for new behavior
  3. 3A named existing Flow is changed only when a small local edit is truly necessary
  4. 4Baseline preservation, security, behavior, approval, and rollback gates run before deploy

Example

You type:

“When a Case is created with Priority 'High', auto-assign it to the 'Escalation' queue and send an email alert to the Case owner's manager.”

SF Agent generates:
  • ✓Apex trigger + handler: CaseHighPriorityEscalation
  • ✓Bulk-safe entry: After Insert, when Priority = 'High'
  • ✓Secure actions: queue assignment and governed notification
  • ✓Tests: positive, negative-permission, bulk, and failure paths

Stop clicking through Setup

Describe your salesforce flow automation in plain English. SF Agent handles the rest.
