About Trace
Summary
Trace builds a workflow automation platform for mid-sized enterprise teams that splits processes into discrete steps, sends repetitive work to AI agents, and routes judgment-dependent tasks to the right people with permission controls and a full audit log. It replaces ad-hoc tool sprawl and manual handoffs across departments, acting as a coordination layer between AI agents and human reviewers. Teams use it to deploy AI across operations without months of integration work.
Go-to-market
Trace targets mid-sized companies looking to adopt AI across departments, with a get-in-touch intake suggesting a sales-assisted onboarding motion rather than pure self-serve.

Workflow automation that routes tasks to humans and AI
Trace is a workflow automation platform that routes tasks to the right agent – human or AI. We enable enterprise-grade context and AI orchestration in mid-sized teams. Trace breaks workflows into clear steps, sends repetitive tasks to AI agents, and routes the rest to the right people while respecting permissions and logging every action. We help teams cut busywork and unify AI tools across departments – helping companies adopt AI in days rather than months.
