Use cases · examples

Real work, across your business and engineering.

These are examples of what teams build and run on Xema: four worked through step by step, and shorter patterns grouped by where the work happens. They show the shape of the work, not a product you install or a promised outcome: each one is built on Xema, and you shape yours.

A new joiner, every time

  2. done: XemaGrants access system by systemfive accounts now, only what her role needs; laptop ordered, payroll set up
  3. done: PersonHer manager approves finance accessthe one sensitive system waits for a person
  4. done: XemaRecords every grantwho approved, what, and when
Ready on day one — nothing granted beyond her role
01 Exampleday-one accessapproved by a personevery grant audited

Joiners and leavers.
The right access, first hour to last.

When someone joins, an agent sets up every account they need — and only the access their role calls for. A manager approves the sensitive ones, and on the last day everything is revoked. Every grant is approved and audited.

Read the use case
  1. 01Create the identity
  2. 02Grant each system by role
  3. 03Approve sensitive access · a person decides
  4. 04Record every grant
  5. 05Revoke on the last day
Business outcome

Access is ready on day one, sized to the role, and everything is closed on the last day.

What Xema provides
  • An agent that sets up and closes out access
  • Manager approval for the sensitive systems
  • A record of what was given, who approved it and when
02 Examplenothing posted unsignedfull audit trail

The month-end close.
Reconciled, flagged, signed off.

Agents reconcile the bank, the suppliers and the ledger, chase the receipts that are missing, and flag anything above your threshold for the controller. Nothing is posted without sign-off, and your finance team starts from a finished first pass instead of a blank spreadsheet.

Read the use case
  1. 01Reconcile bank, suppliers, ledger
  2. 02Chase missing receipts
  3. 03Flag anomalies · a person decides
  4. 04Post approved entries only
  5. 05Close and file
Business outcome

Your finance team starts from a finished first pass, and nothing is posted without sign-off.

What Xema provides
  • Agents that do the matching and the chasing
  • Controller and finance director sign-off
  • A close pack with its full audit trail
03 Examplesandboxed by defaulta human gate before release

Software delivery with agents.
Agents do the work. The workflow keeps the gates.

A ticket is planned, coded in a sandbox and reviewed against your team’s secure-coding skill. The change report is validated, the tech lead approves, and the release notes are written on a cheap lane. Each gate is a step you configure, not a convention people must remember.

Read the use case
  1. 01Plan from the ticket
  2. 02Code in a sandbox
  3. 03Review against the secure-coding skill
  4. 04Validate the change report
  5. 05Tech lead approves · a person decides
  6. 06Write release notes
Business outcome

Agents do the work, and the workflow keeps the gates.

What Xema provides
  • A workflow that owns the order of the steps
  • An isolated sandbox for every agent session
  • A tech lead approval before anything is released
04 Examplehigh-risk actions approvedrefusals audited

Operations desk.
Fast answers, within the user’s reach.

An agent reads live public data, such as prices and the weather forecast, and recommends a maintenance window. It asks to book a field crew; the booking is high-risk, so a supervisor approves it. With a grant, the agent tells the team in Teams or Slack. Without one, the post is refused, and the refusal is in the audit log.

Read the use case
  1. 01Read live public data
  2. 02Recommend a maintenance window
  3. 03Ask to book a field crew
  4. 04Supervisor approves the booking · a person decides
  5. 05Post to Teams or Slack
  6. 06Refuse what no grant allows
Business outcome

Fast answers, and the agent cannot act beyond what its user may do.

What Xema provides
  • An agent that reads the data and drafts the plan
  • A supervisor approval on the high-risk booking
  • Every refusal in the audit log
Patterns

More work teams build on Xema.

Shorter patterns, from connecting the systems you already run to building new applications on the platform.

01Connect & orchestrate

Many systems and agents.
One process, one set of decisions.

Connect & orchestrate · Pattern
multi-vendor process

Agents from different vendors, one business process.

  1. 01Claim arrives
  2. 02Document agent reads it
  3. 03CRM assistant finds the policy holder
  4. 04Your agent proposes the payout
  5. 05Claims manager approves above €25,000 · a person decides
Business outcome

Agents from different vendors work as one business process with one approval path.

What Xema provides
  • Shared capabilities, so permissions and approvals apply to every agent
  • One audit trail across the process

A claim arrives. A vendor’s document agent reads it, your CRM’s assistant finds the policy holder, and your own agent proposes the payout. Each one reaches the work through the same capabilities, so permissions, approvals and audit are shared: a payout above €25,000 waits for a claims manager, whichever agent proposed it.

trigger  claim received
outputs  one process · one approval path · one audit trail
Connect & orchestrate · Pattern
governed layer

One intelligence layer over the software you already run.

Your ERP, CRM and internal applications stay the systems of record. Xema knows who and what each customer, order and supplier is, and who may do what to it; the data itself is read from the system that owns it. Agents ask one place, and every answer respects the access of the person they act for.

trigger  a request from a person or an agent
outputs  answers and actions · data left where it lives
Connect & orchestrate · Pattern
step by step

Modernise one piece at a time.

Start with external tools and vendor agents, MCP servers included, behind governed capabilities. Later, replace one of them with your own app, your own agent or a private model. The capability and its policies stay as they are, so the rules that already work keep working.

trigger  when you are ready
outputs  same capabilities · same policies · new implementations
02IT & security

Requests, reviews, and the accounts nobody uses.

IT & security · Pattern
multi-step process

A software request, turned into an approved purchase.

When someone asks for a new tool, an agent checks the licences you already own, the prior decisions on similar requests, and the price quotes — then writes a one-page purchase brief and holds it for the budget owner and security sign-off. What comes out is an approved request ready to order.

trigger  request submitted
outputs  purchase brief · budget and security sign-off · linked to the request
IT & security · Pattern
parallel process

One access review, every system, in parallel.

A single standard, tailored per team — finance systems reviewed by the controller, customer data by the support lead, infrastructure by IT. The agent runs the review across every system at once, rolls the findings into one prioritized digest, and raises a task for anything critical. You get finished, ranked findings, not a pile of exports.

trigger  quarterly, automatically
outputs  per-system report · one digest · auto-raised tasks
IT & security · Pattern
scheduled process

Dormant accounts, found every day.

Each day the agent compares your accounts with your people records, finds the ones nobody uses or that belong to someone who has left, posts a digest where your team works, and raises a task for anything sensitive. Every finding links back to the run that produced it.

trigger  daily · your task tracker
outputs  digest · auto-raised tasks
03Customer support

Cases resolved, not just deflected.

Customer support · Pattern
event-triggered process (event triggers in development)

Cases worked to a resolution, not a reply.

  1. 01Read the case
  2. 02Confirm the duplicate charge in billing
  3. 03Team lead approves refunds above your limit · a person decides
  4. 04Issue the refund and close the case
Business outcome

The case is worked to a resolution, and the customer gets the confirmation.

What Xema provides
  • An agent that reads the case and checks billing
  • An approval for refunds above your limit

A customer writes that they were charged twice. The agent reads the case from your ticketing system, confirms the duplicate charge in billing and asks to refund it. Refunds above your limit wait for a team lead; once approved, the refund is issued in billing, the case is closed and the customer gets the confirmation.

trigger  your ticketing system · inbound mail
outputs  refund issued after approval · case closed · customer told
Customer support · Pattern
scheduled process

Every escalation, summarized before standup.

Each week the agent reads every escalated case, summarizes it against your product knowledge, and surfaces the patterns and regressions worth acting on. Engineering gets a finished brief — with a link back to every underlying case — instead of trawling tickets by hand.

trigger  weekly, automatically
outputs  ready-to-read brief · linked cases · regression flags
04Sales enablement

Deal context, on the reps' side of the table.

Sales enablement · Pattern
per-deal agent

Proposals and account briefs, drafted from the deal.

Starting from a live opportunity, the agent reads your sales system, prior call notes, product documentation and competitive intel, and drafts the proposal and the account brief your rep refines and sends. The advantage is context: every document reflects this customer and this deal, not a template.

trigger  new opportunity · on demand
outputs  proposal · account brief · both reviewable
Sales enablement · Pattern
multi-step process

Inbound RFPs, answered from approved answers only.

Starting from the buyer’s document, the agent breaks out every question and drafts each answer from your approved answer bank. Rows it cannot answer from that bank are queued for an expert before assembly. The advantage is control: nothing goes out that was not approved, and the risky rows are already flagged.

trigger  inbound email · upload
outputs  drafted response · flagged rows · expert review queue
06Finance & audit

Daily checks, and a close that finishes.

Finance & audit · Pattern
daily scan

Ledger anomalies, found the day they appear.

Every day the agent scans the ledger and journal entries, groups the anomalies it finds, and routes each to the right reviewer, with a trail back to the exact records. This is recurring monitoring: problems surface the day they happen. The month-end close is the long-running counterpart, carrying a whole period through reconciliation and sign-off.

trigger  daily, automatically
outputs  anomaly digest · review queue · drill-down trails
07People & internal enablement

Internal agents, scoped to the right knowledge.

People & internal enablement · Pattern
governed knowledge

Policy answers sized to who is asking.

The same question gets an answer from the content that person may see: a manager sees the approval guidelines, a contractor sees the contractor handbook, and salary bands stay with HR. Access follows each person’s role and team, and every answer cites the page it came from.

trigger  in-app · chat
outputs  answers within each person’s access · cited sources
People & internal enablement · Pattern
always-on agent

Handbook answers, and a handbook that stays current.

An internal "ask the handbook" grounded only in the policy pages your people team maintains. When an answer rests on a page that is out of date or contradicts another, the agent files a ticket for the page owner, so the handbook improves as people use it.

trigger  in-app · chat · embedded
outputs  grounded answer · tickets for the page owner
08Research & R&D

One project, from question to conclusion.

Research & R&D · Pattern
long-running project

A formulation study, from hypothesis to conclusion.

Four researchers test whether a cheaper binder can replace the current one. Agents gather the outside literature, your lab notes and prior experiments; each finding is kept with its evidence, and the write-up is revised as the team challenges it. Every revision is kept, so what the team knew at each review is on record. The project ends with a conclusion the research lead signs off.

trigger  project opened
outputs  evidence log · revised drafts · signed-off conclusion
09Build on Xema

Build on Xema.

Build on Xema · Pattern
new application

A new business application, without rebuilding the basics.

  1. 01Your team defines the scheduling rules
  2. 02Your team builds the dispatcher screens
  3. 03Run on the shared platform
Business outcome

A new business application without rebuilding the basics.

What Xema provides
  • Identity, permissions, approvals and audit
  • Agents and the connections to the ERP and calendar

A field-service team needs an app to schedule engineer visits. Identity, permissions, approvals, audit, agents and the connections to the ERP and calendar are already there. The team builds the scheduling rules and the screens its dispatchers use.

trigger  your team builds it
outputs  one app · on the shared platform
Build on Xema · Pattern
coding agent

An authorised coding agent builds and extends the app.

A coding agent builds an application on the platform from your team’s brief, and extends it when the team asks for changes. It works within the permissions it was given, so what it builds runs under the same rules as everything else.

trigger  a brief from your team
outputs  a working app · every change recorded
Build on Xema · Pattern
installable package

A partner packages industry expertise.

A consultancy that knows insurance claims packages its processes, screens, skills and tools as one installable package. Each customer organisation installs it on its own Xema, connected to its own systems and governed by its own permissions.

trigger  a partner builds it
outputs  one package · installed per organisation
Build on Xema · Pattern
shared capabilities

From one solution to many, without silos.

The second solution reuses the capabilities the first one defined, such as the customer lookup, the refund and its approval rule, instead of building its own copy. Each new solution adds only what is new.

trigger  your next solution
outputs  reused capabilities · no duplicate rules
