The workflow landscape is buzzing with fresh innovations this year, as companies push the boundaries of automation and AI to make work faster and smarter.
Harvey’s Legal Workflow Builder: Empowering Law Firms Legal tech firm Harvey recently launched its Workflow Builder, a tool aimed at law firms looking to customize their internal processes. Unlike one-size-fits-all software, this builder lets legal teams craft workflows tailored to their own IP and client needs. Harvey’s CEO Winston Weinberg emphasizes how this bridges the gap between firms with big innovation teams and those without, helping everyone differentiate themselves by reusing their own expertise. Big names like Ashurst and Ropes & Gray are already onboard, spotlighting the strategic value of such customizable workflows.
Hebbia Acquires FlashDocs for AI-Powered Finance Presentations In the finance sector, Hebbia’s acquisition of FlashDocs marks a leap forward in workflow automation. FlashDocs transforms structured data and AI prompts into well-designed slide decks within seconds, eliminating hours traditionally spent on manual presentation creation. This means financial analysts and consultants can now generate client-ready reports and memos quickly, letting them focus more on insights rather than formatting.
ArcGIS Workflow Manager Update: Smarter Sharing and Mapping Esri’s ArcGIS Workflow Manager rolled out its June 2025 update with practical new features such as sharing workflows across partnered organizations and multi-select job locations. Additionally, workflows can now zoom dynamically to their diagram extent. These tweaks make geographic workflows more collaborative and intuitive — especially useful for teams managing field tasks or projects involving map data.
GoodTime’s AI Agents Enhance Recruiting Efficiency Recruiting isn’t just about finding talent but also managing the process smoothly. GoodTime introduced smart AI agents that handle repetitive tasks like interview scheduling, candidate feedback filtering, and even personalized candidate communications. This AI-driven automation helps hiring teams clear the bottleneck of busywork so they can focus on human connections and making better hires faster.
Tines Launches Autonomous AI Agents to Customize Workflow Automation Cybersecurity automation platform Tines launched new autonomous AI agents that allow organizations to pick precisely how much AI involvement fits their workflow needs. Whether it’s simple rule-based tasks or fully autonomous AI decision-making, teams get flexible control, ensuring tight security and tailored automation without sacrificing governance.
What This Means for Businesses and Workers These real-world examples show a clear trend: workflow tools in 2025 are ramping up AI-powered automation while respecting the need for customization and security. Whether it’s legal teams building their own processes, finance pros generating quick reports, or HR teams automating scheduling, the common thread is saving time on grunt work to focus on value-added activities.
Imagine your daily workflow as a smart assistant that learns your style and speeds up your toughest tasks so you can concentrate on the big picture. That’s the promise these latest tools bring to the table—helping companies stay nimble and workers stay engaged in a fast-paced business world.
From bespoke legal workflows to AI-generated finance decks and multi-organizational collaboration, the future of workflow management blends human expertise with intelligent automation to unlock productivity like never before.
