WorkflowAI is building a new way to interact with Large Languages Models
(LLMs). Our vision is to empower anyone and any organization to build great

Rather than writing prompts, tell WorkflowAI what you want to build, and the
platform will help you find the perfect model and the right instructions for
your task. With WorkflowAI's SDK, deploy this task in your codebase in less
than 5 minutes.
