Compare LLM-assisted workflows (user-driven) with Agentic AI (goal-driven, autonomous). Click into each to explore.
A guided wizard where you control progression. AI extracts data and suggests mappings, but you decide each step.
Give the agent a goal and documents. It plans, executes, validates, and adapts autonomously. You oversee and approve.
| Dimension | LLM-Assisted | Agentic AI |
|---|---|---|
| Input | Form fields + uploads per step | Goal statement + documents upfront |
| Control Flow | User advances through fixed screens | Agent plans and executes; user oversees |
| AI Role | Suggests, extracts, validates on request | Reasons, acts, adapts, retries autonomously |
| Tool Use | Backend processing, no visible API calls | Visible tool calls: OA API, validation, parsing |
| Error Handling | User sees errors, manually fixes | Agent detects, reasons, retries or asks |
| UX Pattern | Wizard / Stepper | Chat + Activity Log + Approval Gates |
| Trust Model | Confirm every step | Approve at checkpoints, audit anytime |
