# Workflows
Darcy's AI Workflows **transform complex business processes into repeatable, automated sequences** that dramatically improve productivity, consistency, and quality. By encoding your best practices into intelligent workflows, you can scale your organization's capabilities without proportional increases in headcount or resources.
**AI Workflows are powered by 1 or Many AI Agents, assigned to help solve or complete a task.**
## Key Features
### DocumentVault
The DocumentVault is a novel approach to enabling AI Agents to work across complex files and content.
| Feature | Capability | Business Impact |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| **Massive File Support** | Upload dozens of files simultaneously | No more limiting choices to just 5 files |
| **Enhanced File Size** | Up to 50MB per file (10x industry standard) | Process complete, detailed documentation |
| **Folder Upload** | Drag and drop entire folders | Streamline document organization |
While other AI systems force you to work within strict limitations, DocumentVault removes these barriers entirely, allowing you to process your documentation needs at enterprise scale.
### Tasks + Goals
Drawing inspiration from leading AI Agent systems such as CrewAI, SmolAgents, and Anthropic's MCP - Tasks are configured using a Goal framework to keep Agents on-task for your needs.
| Enhancement | Description | Value |
| -------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| **Task and Goal Framework** | Structured approach to workflow setup | Clear path to workflow success |
| **Simplified Agent Creation** | Intuitive interface for single or multi-agent setup | Flexible agent orchestration |
| **Natural Language Workflow Creation** | Create workflows using plain English commands | Reduced technical barriers |
| **Real-time Agent Visibility** | Live view of agent activities and progress | Transparent workflow execution |
### Agents
Users can configure one or many agents to solve a Task (maximum of 5). We recommend starting with One Agent and then expanding into multiple depending on complexity of the task.
Agents have a Role, as well as access to Tools.
* **Role:** A persona given to an agent to help guide its output. IE "You are a AWS Solution Architect with 10 years of experience"
* **Tools:** Tools are APIs and integrations that Agents can use to help solve tasks. For example, a Tool an Agent can use is Internet Search, or leveraging a Knowledge Base
* **Coming Soon: Support for custom integrations**
