AI agents could handle several recurring digital workflows in this job, while people remain responsible for judgment and final decisions.

Where agents can help most

  1. 1

    Scan market trends and build recommendations

    Use an agent to pull current market, competitor, and industry notes from the sources you already trust, compare them with last quarter or last year, and draft a short recommendation packet with links and a list of odd gaps.

  2. 2

    Update customer watchlists and alerts

    Use an agent to watch approved customer and prospect lists, compare new activity against your watchlist rules, and draft a daily note for sales or account teams when an account changes segment or starts showing fresh activity.

  3. 3

    Update source metadata and definitions

    Use an agent to review new data feeds or changed source files, map fields to your existing definitions, and draft updates to the source notes, glossary, and lineage records.

Recommended agent uses

3 workflows you could delegate to AI

1

Scan market trends and build recommendations

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to pull current market, competitor, and industry notes from the sources you already trust, compare them with last quarter or last year, and draft a short recommendation packet with links and a list of odd gaps. You get a repeatable first pass on trend reading without losing the final call on what the trend means for the business.

Where you stay involved

You review the sources, decide whether the pattern is real, and turn the packet into a business recommendation. You also decide if the evidence is still too mixed to use.

Review level: Medium

2

Update customer watchlists and alerts

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to watch approved customer and prospect lists, compare new activity against your watchlist rules, and draft a daily note for sales or account teams when an account changes segment or starts showing fresh activity. You still decide what action, if any, belongs on the account.

Where you stay involved

You review the flagged accounts, confirm the list makes sense, and choose what to pass along to the sales or account team. You decide whether anything needs a direct human follow-up.

Review level: Medium

3

Update source metadata and definitions

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to review new data feeds or changed source files, map fields to your existing definitions, and draft updates to the source notes, glossary, and lineage records. It can also check sample rows against expected report values so you can spot where a change may have affected downstream reporting.

Where you stay involved

You review the suggested mappings, decide whether the definitions still hold, and approve the documentation updates. You handle any source or licensing questions that need a person’s judgment.

Review level: Medium

Documentation and coordination support

AI can assist without owning the physical outcome

These support steps are shown separately. They do not count as agentic workflows and do not increase this occupation's score.

Refresh KPI reports and spot changes

Use an agent to watch your core KPI files for meaningful changes, refresh the recurring executive report, and draft a note that shows what changed, which source tables were used, and whether the numbers tied out. It gives you a ready-to-review report package before you send it out.

O*NET 31.0 · methodology 3.3.0. Every workflow passes an action-level physical-execution and protected human-and-veterinary clinical-action gate. Documentation workflows must own a complete digital loop and use digital task evidence only; support-only workflows are disclosed separately and excluded from scoring. Artistic, editorial, normative, and policy-dependent work receives a transparent human-judgment constraint. National ranking within 923 scored O*NET occupations under methodology 3.3.0.
