Introduction

Automation alone is powerful — but automation with intelligence is transformational. Microsoft Power Automate enables organizations to streamline repetitive tasks, while AI Builder layers in artificial intelligence to make those flows smarter. At TopNotch Technology, we combine these tools to build intelligent automation systems that save time, reduce error, and drive innovation.

This whitepaper is based on insights from our most visited blog post on the subject — a clear indication of growing demand for smarter business processes.

What Is AI Builder?

AI Builder is an add-on to the Power Platform that allows users to add intelligence to workflows with no or low code. Common use cases include:

  • Form processing: Extract data from invoices, purchase orders, or registration forms

  • Object detection: Recognize products or parts in images

  • Prediction models: Forecast outcomes based on historical data

  • Category classification: Automatically tag or categorize text

  • Sentiment analysis: Understand customer feedback and engagement

The Power of Power Automate + AI Builder

When Power Automate is paired with AI Builder, organizations can:

  • Automatically extract data from PDFs, emails, and images

  • Trigger workflows based on insights from AI models

  • Integrate intelligent automation into CRM, ERP, and SharePoint

For example, TopNotch Technology recently implemented an AI-enhanced document processing solution. The system uses AI Builder to extract metadata from resumes and Power Automate to route them for review — cutting review time by over 60%. You can learn more in our whitepaper on How to Automate Document Processing.

We’ve also shared insights on how AI is changing business automation in our AI-Powered Power Platform Solutions Whitepaper.
