Micro-Automation Platform for SME's and Managed Service Providers

autoto是一个SaaS无代码流程、文档和知识自动化平台，最初是为法律部门设计的。随着autoto对COVID-19的变化做出反应，我们初步将市场重点扩大到英国服务业的中小企业。这为进一步开发我们的产品提供了动力，以满足这一目标行业的需求。世界经济论坛表示，2019冠状病毒病大流行加速了自动化的采用，57%的受访英国企业正在加速任务自动化。预计到2023年，全球工作流自动化市场将达到184.5亿美元，复合年增长率为23.56%。这是目前严重偏重于企业市场，很少研究自动化在中小企业的采用。autoto最初的目标市场是拥有10至250名员工的245,000家英国中小企业，占英国中小企业人口的5%，但占中小企业营业额的78%，占中小企业就业人数的68% （BEIS商业人口估计，2018年）。Business modelauto是一个软件即服务（Software-as-a-Service）订阅业务。客户需要支付年费或月费才能使用这项服务，还需要支付咨询费和培训费。我们打算通过MSP渠道将这一模式推广到中小企业市场。开发方法这个为期12个月的工业研究项目的目标是与潜在的中小企业客户和试点合作伙伴进行商业分析、研究和开发以及预商业化活动。我们已经确定了3个技术领域，使我们能够为中小企业市场提供服务：改进基于表的自动化和文件存储；提高集成功能的灵活性；为客户和分销渠道管理仪表板。

Project Vision/SummaryAUTTO is a SaaS no-code process, document and knowledge automation platform originally designed for the Legal sector. As Autto reacted to changes in COVID-19 we have extended our market focus, initially opportunistically, to SMEs in the UK's Services sector. This has provided the project's motivation to further develop our product to meet the needs of this targeted sector.Market OpportunityThe World Economic Forum has stated that the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of automation and that 57% of UK businesses surveyed are accelerating the automation of tasks. The Global Workflow Automation Market is forecast to reach US$18.45Bn by 2023 with a CAGR of 23.56%. This is currently heavily weighted towards the Enterprise market with little research on automation adoption in SME's.Autto's initial target market is the 245,000 UK SMEs with between 10 and 250 employees, that make up 5% of the UK SME population but 78% of SME turnover and 68% of SME employment (BEIS Business Population Estimates, 2018).Business ModelAutto is a Software-as-a-Service subscription business. Customers pay an annual or monthly subscription for access to the service, consulting and training fees. We intend to implement this model to the SME market via the MSP Channel.Development ApproachThe goal of this 12-month, industrial research project is to undertake business analysis, research and development and pre-commercialisation activities with both potential SME customers and a pilot group of partners. We have identified 3 technology areas to enable us to service the SME market:Improved tables-based automations and file storageImproved flexibility in integrations capabilitiesManagement dashboards for customers and distribution channels.
