Automation Showroom

Automation Showroom is your pocket companion for operations bottlenecks in small and mid-sized businesses. Instead of chasing the next hype, it helps you do the right thing first: measure, map and price the problem — and only then automate.

No account. No tracking. Everything stays on your device.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Friction log — Capture frictions (copy-paste, searching, waiting …) in under 10 seconds. The app transparently adds up what waiting costs you: hours and euros per month, with a cost curve. After a week or two you have real numbers instead of gut feeling — and a business case for your boss. Share the report.

Sparring — 7 short questions, a rule-based engine (no LLM). You get hypotheses with confidence, an ROI range, a waste heatmap, concrete data points to measure — and an honest call. Sometimes that call is: don't. Export the memo as a basis for the conversation.

Cookbook — 13 real automation architectures across industries, with steps, metrics and an ROI calculator. New cases now appear automatically, no app update needed.

Learn — 2 courses, 7 lessons: find, measure and price bottlenecks — and learn to read architecture diagrams.

NEW IN v1.1

• Friction log as a new core feature, with cost curve and shareable report
• Profile onboarding: set industry, size and function once — every sparring starts pre-filled. Plus quick starts for typical bottlenecks.
• Smart Start: returning users land straight in their results, not the pitch
• 13th case + auto content sync: new cases without an update
• New course "Find, measure and price bottlenecks" (4 lessons)
• Backup: iCloud / Google device backup plus manual file export
• New design in the look of the website — cleaner, calmer, more confident

PRIVACY-FIRST

No account, no tracking, no ad IDs. Everything you do in the app stays on your device — GDPR-friendly by design. English and German, for iPhone, iPad and Android.
