Built a free browser-based RPA PDD scoping tool with AI review and auto-generated process flowcharts, no license needed
Hey r/RPA,
Frustrated with how manual and inconsistent the pre-dev BA process can be, I built a browser-based PDD scoping tool to help streamline it. Free, runs entirely in the browser, no UiPath license or installation required.
What it does:
Guides you through a full pre-dev scoping document in structured phases: AS-IS process mapping, business value & ROI, technical and business exceptions, dependency mapping, TO-BE automated state, edge case audit, and a readiness gate before dev handoff.
Once you fill it out, two things happen automatically:
- An AI reviewer reads both your structured inputs and the contextual notes you left alongside each answer, then flags risks the hard scores don't capture and gives a final recommendation
- A process flowchart is generated and rendered directly in the tool — no copy-pasting into Notion or Visio, it just appears
The whole thing is designed as a 15-20 minute pre-work instrument, not a full PDD generator. The goal is to arrive at the dev conversation with something defensible rather than a blank page.
Happy to hear feedback from people who actually work with these in the field , I'm sure there are gaps.
