Get approval before updating your automation platform

Checks for new platform updates, summarizes what's changed, and waits for your Telegram approval before installing them.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. A person has to approve before it continues.

The problem it solves

Updating the software behind your automations can break things if you do it blindly, but reading through technical release notes every time takes effort you don't have. Skipping updates for too long leaves you behind on fixes and new features.

Who it fits

Businesses running their own self-hosted automation system who want safe, reviewed updates instead of automatic or manual ones.

How it works

  1. Checks hourly for a new available update
  2. Compares the running version against the latest one
  3. AI summarizes the technical release notes into plain language
  4. A Telegram message asks you to approve or skip the update
  5. Approving it installs the update automatically
What you get

Safe updates approved before they touch your system

You get a plain-language summary of new platform updates and can approve or skip each one before it installs.

What you get

A plain-language summary of what's new, delivered to Telegram, with the update applied only after you approve it.

What you need

Server access for the automation platform and a Telegram account.

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.
