Pillar · Workflows

A workflow engine for the work you actually do.

Orchestrate the boring stuff: approvals, escalations, evidence collection, ticket routing, runbook execution. Trigger from anything in the platform — a control failure, an incident, a stage gate, a schedule, a webhook.

Built-in activities

Composable steps you wire together with a visual designer or YAML. All activities support retries, timeouts, idempotency keys, structured errors, and OpenTelemetry tracing.

  • Slack / Teams
  • WhatsApp (Twilio + Meta Cloud)
  • Push notifications

Documents + data

  • CSV / XML / JSON transform
  • Markdown / HTML extract
  • PDF extract
  • OCR
  • Compress / encrypt

Control flow

  • Conditional / loop
  • Wait / polling
  • Cron schedules
  • Parallel + fan-out / fan-in
  • Saga compensations

Human-in-the-loop

  • User task / approval
  • Multi-step review (CAB style)
  • Escalation timers
  • E-signature
  • Callback

Platform

  • Entity CRUD
  • Notification (email + in-app)
  • Audit / evidence emit
  • Terraform run
  • Translate / geocoding

All SDKs share the same wire protocol, the same retry semantics, the same idempotency stores (in-memory / Redis / Postgres), and the same OpenTelemetry instrumentation. Resilience is a decorator, not a node.

Common workflows

Onboarding / offboarding

HR signal → identity provisioning → device assignment → access request approvals → asset register update → A.6.1 (employment terms) + A.5.16 (identity) evidence.

Vendor risk review

New supplier → questionnaire → SOC 2 + ISO 27001 doc collection → risk score → DPA generation → quarterly review schedule. Maps to A.5.19–A.5.22.

Access recertification

Quarterly campaign → manager review → revoke uncertified access → exception log → A.5.18 evidence pack.

AI model deployment

Model registered → impact assessment → bias / safety tests → human-oversight plan → release gate → ISO 42001 A.6 lifecycle evidence + EU AI Act conformity record.

Incident response

Alert → triage → containment playbook → comms → post-incident review → CAPA. Maps to A.5.24–A.5.30.

Continuity exercise

Schedule → tabletop or live → outcome capture → action plan → A.5.29–A.5.30 evidence.

Stop wiring Zapier, Make, and a half-broken Jira automation together.

One engine. One log. Activities that already know about your services, your CIs, your controls, and your people.
