# Automation, Squared

**[Ramp Engineering](https://daily.dev/sources/ramp_eng)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Ramp's engineering team built a two-agent system where an 'architect' agent watches screen recordings of accountants working in spreadsheets and automatically generates detailed instructions and context for a 'doer' spreadsheet agent. This eliminates the need for users to manually write prompts, reducing workflow creation from weeks of engineering work to a 5-minute process for non-technical users. The spreadsheet agent outperforms GPT-4o on SpreadsheetBench, achieving 49.5% on soft-restriction tasks vs. 45.5% and 32.5% on hard-restriction tasks vs. 13.4%. Tasks that previously took 1–2 hours now complete in under 10 minutes.
