Real project / Painting company
From Workyard to the sheet the team already used.
A painting company was manually moving account data from Workyard into Google Sheets each day. I automated the extraction and transfer, saving up to 30 minutes a day in data entry.
The task & my role
Two tools, with a manual step between them.
The company needed information from Workyard in its spreadsheet. My contribution was the connection between those tools: extracting the account data and moving it into Google Sheets automatically.

Time back in the working day.
The result was up to 30 minutes saved each day in manual data entry. The benefit came from removing a repeated transfer between tools the company already used.
For me, this project captures the value of a focused automation: find the step that keeps costing someone time, then make that step easier.
