The 4 Faces of AI – And How FLOWS Uses Them All

By FLOWS Team

Empowering creators, freelancers, and businesses with smarter, faster tools.

Introduction

AI is no longer a single tool — it’s an evolving spectrum of intelligence. At FLOWS, we break AI into four essential categories, each playing a unique role in how businesses automate tasks, gain insights, create content, and build next-gen workflows.

In this article, we’ll explore:

• What each AI type does

• Real-life examples

• How FLOWS integrates them into your services

1. Process Automation → The Workhorse

How it works:

• Combines data with workflows (e.g., form responses → action)

• Uses tools like Zapier, Make, or code-free logic builders

FLOWS in Action:

• Automatically tags clients based on form submissions

• Sends project reminders, consultation links, and onboarding steps — all hands-free

Great For:

• Sending emails

• Creating Trello or Asana cards

• Updating CRMs

2. Smart ML (Supervised AI/ML) → The Forecaster

How it works:

• Predict client churn or engagement trends
