Level L4 · Delegator
At least one whole process runs without you: it acts in your tools, and you only handle exceptions. You could show a stranger "this part of my business runs itself."
Altitude A3 · Exceptions
AI runs the process; you only see the weird cases.
01Do this first
Connect your tool to one real system (inbox or a sheet) so it can act. You handle exceptions.
