What is Tines 3B?
Tines 3B is an AI-native workflow platform from Tines for building, running, and monitoring AI agents, internal apps, and automations in one governed place. Teams describe a process in plain language or write code, and the platform builds it against approved connectors while Security and IT keep control over access, spend, and deployment.
Top Features:
- Prompt building: describe a process in plain words and get a working workflow.
- Sandboxed runs: each step runs isolated, and credentials are never exposed to builders.
- Autofix: the platform spots broken steps and proposes fixes on reviewable branches.
Use Cases:
- Security triage: deploy an agent that handles alert intake, triage, and remediation.
- IT provisioning: automate new hire account setup across Okta, ServiceNow, and Slack.
- Finance approvals: route invoices for approval and flag duplicate invoices before payment.
Who Can Use Tines 3B?
- Security teams: automate phishing triage and endpoint isolation runbooks with tracked changes.
- IT leaders: govern AI-built tools across the company, including access and spend.
- Business teams: build their own automations without waiting on the engineering backlog.
Pricing
- Explore (free): unlimited users, three live workflows, and a one-time $50 AI allowance.
- Deploy (contact sales): unlimited workflows, flexible hosting, and the option to bring your own model.
