Hands

The classifier

An AI assistant that categorises the backlog, with your say-so

Sorts the backlog nobody sorted. Takes the pile with no categories on it, proposes a set that fits what is actually there, and applies it once you agree — not before.

What you'd say

Two years of expenses, none of them categorised. Suggest the categories first.

When it runs

When you ask. Brief it in a sentence, any time.

What it uses

a file

Where it stops and asks

It proposes the categories first and applies them only after you agree. It never invents a category to make a row fit.

How it goes

The running order.

Every step lands in the record with a time and a source, so you can read what it did instead of asking.

  1. Read the pile
  2. Propose a set of categories that fits
  3. You agree, or change them
  4. Apply them, flagging what fits none

Questions

The ones that come up first.

What can it categorise?

Expenses, enquiries, support tickets, documents: any pile with no categories on it. It reads what is actually there and proposes a set that fits, rather than a textbook one.

What if a row fits two categories?

It says so, and asks which rule you want. The rule is remembered for next time.

Can it use my existing categories?

Yes. Give it the chart of accounts or the list you already use and it applies that, flagging the rows that fit none.
