The marketing / creative / video agency playbook
The automations that matter most
Out of the full Media & Entertainment catalog, these are the ones a marketing / creative / video agency should run first.

Drafts pitch decks + proposals from prior similar work + RFP requirements + brand voice.
Brand voice writing assistant

Weekly project status drafter

Drafts weekly client status from time entries + project notes + Slack + recent deliverables.
Utilization + scope creep monitor
Agency operations
Weekly utilization + scope creep + WIP/AR analysis; flags concerning projects to leadership.

In the wild
How this actually plays out
Weekly project status drafting is the workflow that closes a 3-hour weekly status-meeting prep window across 30 PMs.
The AI workflow: every Friday, AI ingests project's time entries + project notes + Slack threads + most recent deliverables shipped. Drafts personalized client status (what shipped, what's in flight, blockers needing client decision, scope/budget heads-up).
A 30-person agency typically saves 40-60 PM hours/week on status drafting and improves client satisfaction with weekly transparency.
