AI Automation FAQ
Answers about how we work, pricing, timelines, data security and our three core services.
General questions
What does AI AUTOMATO do?
AI AUTOMATO is an AI automation consulting and implementation company. We design and build custom automation for recruitment, lead generation and CRM, and sales workflows, including sales automation on LINE.
How much does it cost? Do you publish prices?
There are no fixed public packages. Custom quotation based on workflow scope, systems, integrations, complexity, and implementation requirements. Most clients start with a focused paid pilot.
How long does implementation take?
It depends on the workflow scope and the systems involved. You receive a concrete timeline in the proposal after discovery and a workflow review.
Do we have to replace our current systems?
Usually not. We connect the CRM, ATS, email, messaging and internal tools you already use.
Will AI message our customers automatically?
Only where you choose. Routine acknowledgements can be automatic; outbound prospecting, quotes and other sensitive messages are approved by a person by default.
How do you handle data security?
We request only the access a workflow needs, document data flows, can sign an NDA, and use AI providers that fit your policies. The specifics are written into the proposal.
What happens on a demo call?
We first learn your workflow and tools, then walk through an automation relevant to your situation and discuss scope. No two companies get the same demo.
Do you support the system after launch?
Yes. Monitoring, tuning and improvements continue after go-live, and the support scope is defined in the proposal.
What is recruitment automation?
Recruitment automation uses AI and workflow tools to handle the repetitive parts of agency recruitment: acknowledging candidates and clients, qualifying inquiries, sending follow-ups, and keeping the ATS or CRM up to date. Recruiters stay in control of judgment calls such as shortlisting, client conversations and offers. AI AUTOMATO builds this around the systems an agency already uses rather than replacing them.
Do you replace our ATS?
No. We connect to the ATS or CRM you already use and keep it updated. If your system has no usable API, we confirm a workable approach during discovery before anything is quoted.
Will candidates receive messages without a recruiter seeing them?
Only if you choose that. Routine acknowledgements can be sent automatically, while personalized or sensitive messages can require recruiter approval first.
Can this work for agencies outside the US?
Yes. We work with agencies in the UK, Canada, Australia, Singapore and elsewhere, and design the workflow around your time zones and data-protection requirements.
How long does a first workflow take?
It depends on your systems and scope. We usually start with one focused workflow as a paid pilot, and the timeline is agreed in the proposal after discovery.
How much does it cost?
Every project is quoted individually based on workflow scope, systems, integrations, complexity and implementation requirements. There are no fixed public packages.
What is AI lead generation and CRM automation?
AI lead generation and CRM automation connects prospect discovery, enrichment, qualification, follow-up and CRM updates into one workflow. AI helps research and qualify leads and draft follow-ups; the CRM is updated automatically; and sales stays in charge of the conversations that close deals. AI AUTOMATO designs this around your ideal customer profile and the CRM you already use.
Which CRMs do you work with?
We commonly work with HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho CRM and Pipedrive, and can connect most CRMs that provide an API. We confirm the approach for your system during discovery.
Is outbound outreach sent automatically?
Outbound messages are approval-based by default. AI drafts and prepares them; your team approves before anything is sent.
Is this compliant with privacy rules?
We design workflows around applicable rules such as GDPR, CAN-SPAM and Taiwan's Personal Data Protection Act, use approved data sources, and honor opt-outs. Your legal team should confirm requirements specific to your market.
Do we need a clean CRM before we start?
No. Cleaning up and standardizing CRM data is often part of the first phase of the project.
How much does it cost?
Every project is quoted individually based on workflow scope, systems, integrations, complexity and implementation requirements.
What is AI sales automation with LINE?
AI sales automation with LINE connects your lead sources, a LINE Official Account and your CRM. New leads are captured and qualified by AI, followed up on LINE with approved messages, logged in the CRM, and handed to a salesperson with full context when they are ready for a meeting. It is built for markets such as Taiwan where business conversations happen on LINE.
Do we need a LINE Official Account?
Yes. The workflow runs through your LINE Official Account and the LINE Messaging API. If you do not have one yet, we can advise on setting it up.
Can a salesperson take over the chat?
Yes. Handoff rules are agreed with your team, and the salesperson receives a summary of the conversation and the lead's answers.
Is this only for Taiwan?
It is designed for LINE markets such as Taiwan, Japan and Thailand. For other markets, the same workflow can run on email or WhatsApp.
How much does it cost?
Every project is quoted individually based on workflow scope, systems, integrations, complexity and implementation requirements.
