The problem it solves

When an automation breaks after a change, you have no easy way to see what changed or get back to a working version. You end up manually exporting files or trying to remember what you edited last.

Who it fits

Teams running many automations who need reliable version history and rollback.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system syncs your automations to GitHub
  2. It compares what's in GitHub against what's currently running
  3. A dashboard shows which automations are synced, changed, or missing
  4. You pull up the full commit history with timestamps and messages
  5. You pick a past version and import it back to restore a working automation
What you get

A working version to roll back to

You get a full history of your automations on GitHub and the ability to restore any past version in a click.

What you get

A dashboard with commit history, change comparisons, and one-click restores for your automations.

What you need

A GitHub account and access to your automation platform's API.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
