CONVERSATIONAL AI

AI Agent Powers Business Automation

Papyrus Converse powered by Owlfie.ai
UNDERSTANDING OWLFIE

What is Owlfie?

Owlfie is an intelligent AI agent designed to solve the "document problem" and streamline complex business processes that heavily rely on the content of stored and received business documents and emails.

It is embedded within the Papyrus Converse conversational UI (User Interface), making it an integral part of the workflow and accessible through natural language interactions, like a chat interface.

Key Affiliation

Owlfie is explicitly stated to be "Powered by IBM watsonx." This means it leverages the foundation models and enterprise AI capabilities of IBM's watsonx platform to perform its advanced analysis and process automation tasks.

CORE CAPABILITIES

How Does Owlfie Work?

Owlfie functions primarily through two core, powerful capabilities that are applied to any document-heavy process:

1

Intelligent Document Analysis

This capability focuses on ingesting, understanding, and extracting critical information from unstructured data (documents).

Function How it Works Example Use Case
Extract and Summarize Uses AI (powered by watsonx) to read large documents (like committee reports, emails, or due diligence files) and pull out the most important facts, decisions, or action items. Analyzing an inbound mail or email to instantly summarize key details for a claims process, bypassing the need for a human to read every word.
Review and Index It creates a smart, searchable index of the documents, ensuring that information is not lost across disconnected archives. Indexing thousands of pages of due diligence documents for a legal team, making relevant information instantly retrievable.
Provide Source References Crucially, the summaries generated are linked back to their original source in the document, allowing users to verify the information and build trust in the AI's output. Generating a summary for a committee meeting and providing direct links to the paragraph in the 2,000-page source document where a specific decision was recorded.

Assisted Process Execution

This capability moves beyond passive analysis and actively assists teams in designing, managing, and completing their complex, collaborative workflows within the Papyrus Converse platform.

Function How it Works Example Use Case
Process Design Support The AI supports the Designer in the Converse Designer interface to define business rules and value streams using simple natural language sentences (stored in a rule book). A business analyst defines a compliance rule: "The claim must be routed to the Supervisor if the damage amount exceeds 5000 Euros."
Workflow Streamlining Owlfie manages and supports every step of the defined workflow, helping teams collaborate and process cases more efficiently. Routing a claims case by automatically identifying the next required step or the correct team member based on the extracted document data.
Informed Decision Support (via UTA) The core engine includes a User-Trained Agent (UTA) that learns from the actions and decisions made by experienced users. It uses this learned context to guide less experienced users by providing the "next best action" suggestion within the workflow. When processing a complex claim, a less experienced agent receives a suggestion like, "Based on how previous claims of this type were handled, the next best action is to request document X."
THE PLATFORM

What is Papyrus Converse? Is it a separate product?

Papyrus Converse is an AI-powered business application platform that is integral to the solution described. It is not a separate product from Owlfie; rather, it is the environment and framework in which Owlfie operates.

The Platform

  • AI-Driven Agility Platform:

    Papyrus Converse is defined as an innovative platform designed to accelerate the digital transformation of enterprises, specifically by creating and redefining complex, dynamic, and decision-intensive business processes (also known as "value streams").

  • Conversational UI (User Interface):

    It provides the user interface that mimics natural human conversation. Users interact with the system—and with Owlfie—by typing or speaking in natural language, not by using traditional IT code.

  • Business-Led, No-Code Design:

    The platform includes tools (Converse Designer and Converse Composer) that empower business users and experts (not just IT developers) to design and deploy complex workflows and rules using business terminology.

The Relationship with Owlfie

  • Owlfie is Embedded:

    Owlfie is an intelligent AI agent designed to eliminate the "document problem". We help organizations streamline complex business processes built on documents and emails, directly addressing the pain point that 36% of users, according to the 2024 Gartner Digital Worker Survey, struggle to access relevant information. It is embedded within the Papyrus Converse conversational UI (User Interface), making it an integral part of the workflow and accessible through natural language interactions, like a chat interface.

  • Owlfie is the Agent:

    Users interact with the platform and their case data by chatting with Owlfie through the conversational UI. Owlfie uses its capabilities (Intelligent Document Analysis and Assisted Process Execution) to support the workflows built on the Converse platform.

  • Converse is the System:

    Papyrus Converse provides the architecture, the rule book, the collaboration tools, and the ultimate user experience, all of which are enhanced by the embedded intelligence of Owlfie.

  • Papyrus Converse is the entire platform and the conversational user interface.
  • Owlfie is the embedded AI agent powered by IBM watsonx that provides the intelligence and automation features within Converse.

They function as a single, integrated solution.

ENTERPRISE GRADE

Data Security, Privacy & Integration

Owlfie, operating within the Papyrus Converse platform and powered by IBM watsonx, ensures data security and privacy for highly sensitive documents through a multi-layered approach centered on governance, fine-grained access control, and compliance automation, with a critical emphasis on deployment flexibility.

1

Secure Deployment for Ultimate Control

A key advantage for highly regulated sectors like finance and insurance is the platform's deployment flexibility:
  • On-Premise Deployment (Data Sovereignty): Papyrus Converse, including the embedded AI agent Owlfie and the underlying IBM watsonx components, can be deployed on-premise (often referred to as "in a box"). This means all sensitive data, documents, and the processing required by the AI agent never leave the organization's secure network. This is the highest level of data sovereignty and control available, meeting the strictest regulatory requirements.
  • Hybrid and Cloud Options: The platform is also available for deployment in the cloud, on a private cloud, or in a hybrid environment, allowing organizations to choose the model that best fits their security architecture and compliance needs.
2

Granular Access Control and Role-Based Security

The Papyrus Converse platform acts as the primary gatekeeper for the data, ensuring the principle of least privilege is enforced.

  • Precision Access Management: The system controls who can access what at a granular level. Permissions are set by user role, security clearance, or specific case assignment, ensuring Owlfie only processes data that the authenticated user is authorized to see.
  • Dynamic Access Adjustment: Access rights are automatically adjusted as a user's role or case assignment changes, ensuring that permissions remain current and sensitive data is not exposed unnecessarily.
3

Embedded Governance and Regulatory Compliance

The platform leverages the extensive governance capabilities of the underlying IBM watsonx suite to ensure responsible AI usage:

  • Data Protection Policies: The system can enforce data protection rules to mask, redact, or obfuscate sensitive columns (like names or specific financial figures) based on configured enterprise policies and regulatory requirements (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA).
  • Compliance Automation: Business rules for processes are defined in natural language, ensuring the workflow remains compliant with internal corporate policies and external regulations throughout the execution.
  • Audit Trails: Every interaction with protected data, including access attempts and the actions taken by Owlfie, is tracked and documented to provide complete accountability and simplify regulatory reporting.
  • No Model Training on Private Data: Sensitive enterprise data used for document analysis and decision support remains secure and is not used to train the underlying foundation model or expose it outside the secure environment.
4

Seamless Enterprise Integration

Owlfie operates within the Papyrus Converse platform, which is itself part of the broader Papyrus Digital Platform. This platform is designed as an all-in-one solution for content services, process management, and communication, making integration with existing repositories a standard feature.

  • Enterprise Integration Components: The Papyrus Platform features easily configurable Enterprise Integration components and SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) Adapters. These facilitate simplified integration with various third-party systems.
  • CMIS Support (Standard Archives): Integration is achieved using standard methods like CMIS (Content Management Interoperability Services), which is the common protocol for connecting to and interacting with major Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems and archives.
  • Unified Content View: The platform consolidates all content, data, and complete case histories into a unified view. Owlfie can access documents, emails, data, and files from both the built-in Papyrus WebArchive and your existing third-party archiving/storage system via the integration adapters.
  • AI-Powered Content Mining: Owlfie's intelligence allows it to perform content mining. It can analyze business processes via Process Mining and documents stored in repositories to extract vital insights from unstructured data, automate classification and indexing, and answer questions about document contents through conversational AI.
  • Cross-Enterprise Access: Owlfie leverages the Papyrus Platform's robust integration layer to access data across the enterprise, regardless of where that data is physically stored (in a traditional on-premise archive, a database, or the cloud).
