Visa VAS

Agent pilots for Visa's Value Added Services strategy team. End-of-day instructions become morning-ready work, on the stack the team already runs, with the runbooks to keep it that way.

The problem

The workflows lived in people's heads and inboxes.

The corporate-strategy team ran on repeatable work that was never written down as a process. Before anything could be automated, someone had to map what actually happened between a request and a finished deliverable.

The map

Stakeholder interviews into a repeatable operating model.

I mapped the team's workflows through stakeholder interviews and redesigned them around the AI use cases with the highest value. The output was an operating model the team could reuse, plus pilot blueprints for each use case.

The pilots

Leave instructions at end of day. Find the work done in the morning.

I built traceable agent pilots on Visa's existing stack. A team member leaves instructions at the end of the day; the agent works overnight and the result is ready for review in the morning, with every step traceable back to the instruction that caused it.

The handoff

Monitoring, troubleshooting, and a rollback for every pilot.

A pilot that only I could operate would have died the day the engagement ended. I delivered monitoring, troubleshooting, and rollback runbooks alongside the pilots. That is what turned them into AI-native workflows the team adopted.
