I have been thinking about situations where clients specifically ask for AI agents to simplify a process. On the surface, it sounds reasonable. They want something intelligent to classify, route, or decide. But when we go deeper into the actual workflow, we often find that the logic is completely structured. It might just be routing leads based on budget, geography, or service type. In those cases, a simple if-else condition or a fetch record from a table would solve the problem cleanly.

Another common case is using AI to analyze structured form submissions. If the inputs are predefined dropdowns and checkboxes, there is nothing to interpret. A fetch record or rule-based filter is cleaner, cheaper, and easier to maintain.

So the real question is this: are we adding AI agents because they actually do the job better, faster, or more efficiently? Or are we just throwing AI into the mix because it sounds cool and everyone else is doing it?

Yesterday was a big day for us, and we re still processing all of it.
TinyCommand finished as #2 Product of the Day, and for a small team that s been quietly building for months, it genuinely meant a lot.
We started TinyCommand because we kept seeing the same problem everywhere, people spending more time stitching tools together than actually doing their work.
Workflows breaking silently, data scattered across apps, forms living in one place and automation in another it never felt as simple as it should be.
That s the gap we wanted to close.
Seeing so many of you understand that instantly and even share the exact struggles you face made the launch feel meaningful beyond the ranking.
Thank you for the comments, the feedback, the upvotes, and the honest conversations throughout the day.
It helped more than you know.
There s a lot ahead for TinyCommand, and yesterday gave us even more clarity on what matters next.
