The intelligence-layer position where workflows gain the ability to learn, adapt, and decide.
A meta-category coordinate for the AI layer embedded in workflow systems — not just executing steps, but reasoning about them, optimizing them, and acting autonomously when conditions require it.

Why this is canonical
'Intelligence' marks the qualitative difference between classical workflow automation and AI-native process systems: the capacity to interpret ambiguous inputs, reason over incomplete information, and adapt behavior without explicit reprogramming. 'Workflow intelligence' on .ai names this layer with precision — and claims it before it becomes a commoditized product category.
