Post by Phacet

How Roundtable automated its back-office with AI. Before Phacet: - Reviewing a 60-page contract = 1 hour of manual work. - Workflows scattered across Forest Admin, Google Drive, Notion, Excel. - General-purpose chat tools tested, but too limited for processing hundreds of documents. 👉 As Julien Fissette, co-Founder & CPO, puts it: “Chat interfaces are great for brainstorming, but not for reviewing or processing hundreds of documents.” Why Phacet clicked: The spreadsheet interface. Rows = records. Columns = attributes. Everyone gets it. Onboarding was instant. Julien: “It’s like having ChatGPT in Excel, with the same experience as Notion.” AI agents now running at Roundtable: 1️⃣ Document extraction: from 30–60 min per doc → 30 sec. 2️⃣ Regulatory compliance: trained on ESMA docs, automatic gap reports for the legal team. 3️⃣ Bulk data updates: thousands of missing data points updated in days, not weeks. Impact: - Hours of manual review eliminated. - Databases cleaned and updated faster than ever. - Teams freed from repetitive tasks, focusing on value-added work. “We’re not eliminating jobs, we’re making people more productive. Their contribution grows once they’re freed from repetitive tasks.” Julien’s advice to other leaders: “It has to come from the top. Don’t just say ‘we need AI’. Show a concrete use case, how it was done, and what results it delivered. That’s internal marketing.” For Roundtable, Phacet is now part of daily operations. The promise is simple: Automate the workflows that drain time, so teams can focus on their real business. 👉 More on Roundtable AI-journey on our website.
