Communicating with your team can be a pain in the ass. Keeping track of who said what and when can become a rabbit hole of wasted time and energy, especially if you work remotely with a team and need everyone to develop efficient habits around communication.

Email is still the most popular form of communication between teams, but it is not always the best option. The best email alternatives for team communication are chat and video tools, mobile messaging for quick updates, and project or workflow management tools for decisions, tasks, files, approvals, and proof.

How a Checklist Saved Boeing from Bankruptcy and Helped Win World War II

On a foggy morning at Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio on October 30, 1935, a flight competition was held for the top airplane manufacturers to win a tender from the U.S. Army Air Corps for the next-generation long-range bomber.

Boeing Corporation’s Model 299, a cutting edge aluminum-alloy plane that could fly faster, farther and carry five times as many bombs as the army had requested, was sure-fire to win. Nicknamed the “flying fortress”, historians stated this competition was held as a mere formality, with Boeing almost guaranteed to secure an order of at least sixty-five aircraft.

What is Runbook Automation? Process Clarity for More Than Just IT

What is runbook automation: process clarity for more than just IT

Most teams have processes. Few can prove they ran the way they were supposed to.

Runbook automation is how IT operations teams closed that gap years ago, and the same idea is now reshaping how every team runs critical work, from incident response to compliance to marketing operations. At Process Street, we treat runbook thinking as the foundation of a Compliance Operations Platform: documented procedures, automated execution, and AI oversight working as one closed loop.

Insurance Spends $16 Billion a Year Proving Work Got Done

I presented at IRES 2026 in Charlotte last week. The room was insurance compliance leaders from carriers, MGAs, and state regulators. The number that got their attention: $16 billion.

That is the estimated annual cost of compliance operations inefficiency across U.S. insurance. Not regulatory fines. Not penalties. Internal cost: rework, manual evidence assembly, approval chasing, babysitting email threads that should have been automated years ago.

The Honest AI Onboarding Curve Nobody Tells You About

I was on a call with a small business owner who runs an art studio. Four employees. She is the chief creative officer, the janitor, the marketer, and the teacher.

She asked me a question I hear constantly: “How long until the AI is actually useful?”

I Caught My AI Cheating on a Quality Check

I was generating marketing collateral. Ten design variations of the same document. Each one goes through a QA gate before it ships. The AI has to inspect every page, write what it actually sees, and attest that it meets the quality bar.

It batched all five remaining themes into a single command. Copy-pasted the same attestation for each one. Word for word. “All elements render correctly, typography is clean, layout is balanced.” Five times. Identical.

You Don’t Have a Skill. You Have a Novice.

You don’t have a skill. You have a novice.

My team keeps telling me they’ve “built a skill.” One person gave Claude a short prompt and hit create. Another found something on a marketplace and installed it. Both walked away thinking the job was done.

Agents Do Not Improvise Well

We keep giving AI agents access to our tools and then acting surprised when they do something unexpected. The problem was never the AI. The problem is we never gave it the rulebook.

For years, workflow automation meant connecting tools through integrations. If this, then that. Trigger here, action there. It worked for simple tasks. It broke under complexity. And it was built for humans who could read error logs and fix broken triggers when things went sideways. AI agents do not work that way. They need context, not just connections.
