Agentic Workflow

Definition

Agentic Workflow

An agentic workflow is a workflow where AI does more than answer questions. It takes inputs, decides what to do next, carries out steps, and hands off to a human when judgment is needed.

In real acquisition work, speed and coverage matter. An agentic workflow lets a team move from property intake to underwriting, offer generation, outreach, and response handling without forcing every step through a person. That matters when you are working large sets of listed properties and want more offers in market, faster turnaround, and cleaner escalation only when a response, counter, or objection needs review.

In a real estate acquisition setting, an agentic workflow usually starts when a property is pulled into the system. The workflow can underwrite the deal, estimate ARV, rehab, and MAO, produce an offer price, send the offer through the right channel, watch for replies, and sort responses into the next action. In Dottid AI’s agent product, that can cover the broader acquisition flow from underwriting through outbound offers and inbound reply handling. In Dottid AI’s API product, the same idea applies only to the underwriting layer, where a system sends property inputs and receives pricing outputs to use inside its own workflow.

01

A wholesaling team loads a full batch of listed properties into Dottid AI, the workflow underwrites each one, generates offer prices, sends offers to listing agents, and then routes only counters and real replies to an acquisition manager.

02

A PropTech builder plugs Dottid AI’s underwriting API into its own platform so every address submitted gets back ARV, rehab, and MAO outputs, then the builder uses those outputs inside its own offer process.

03

An acquisition team using the agent product wants broad coverage across a high volume of on market leads, so the workflow handles underwriting and outbound offer sending at scale, then escalates only the responses that need live judgment.

What makes a workflow agentic instead of just automated?

A basic automated workflow follows preset steps. An agentic workflow can decide what happens next based on the property, the underwriting outputs, or the reply that comes back, then hand off when a human needs to make the call.

Does agentic workflow mean the system runs the whole acquisition process by itself?

Not always. In Dottid AI’s agent product, it can cover a broad acquisition flow, including underwriting, offers, and response handling. In the API product, it only covers underwriting infrastructure, so the rest of the workflow still lives in your own system.

Where does a human still matter in an agentic workflow?

Human review usually comes in for counters, objections, unusual deal terms, or any live negotiation point where the team wants judgment instead of a straight workflow decision.

Is agentic workflow the same as AI agents?

No. AI agents are the tools that do the work. Agentic workflow is the way those agents are arranged across the process, including the steps, handoffs, and escalation points.
