Meet Juwariah
My name is Juwariah Shareef. I’m the Founder of SageFlow, a no-code AI agent-building platform. My background spans investment banking, consulting, and AI startups, where I saw firsthand the challenges of building AI-driven automation. My experience struggling with existing AI agent frameworks led me to create a more flexible, user-friendly solution.
What inspired the creation of SageFlow?
While building custom AI agents for niche workflows at my last startup, I realized how rigid and complex existing tools were. I wanted a platform that empowers anyone—regardless of technical expertise—to create, deploy, and manage AI agents seamlessly. SageFlow was born out of this need for a more intuitive and accessible approach to AI automation.
Can you walk us through the main features of SageFlow?
SageFlow offers a drag-and-drop interface to design AI agents, integrate, evaluate, and sell them, and offer integrations with popular tools. Users can customize logic, automate tasks, and deploy agents instantly without writing code. The platform is designed for speed, flexibility, and ease of use. We also want to bring agents into the world through applications like iOS shortcuts, Siri, and mobile use cases.
How does the drag-and-drop interface simplify the creation of AI agents?
It removes the need for coding by allowing users to visually build workflows with modular components. Instead of writing scripts, users simply connect blocks that represent actions, triggers, and decisions. This makes AI automation accessible to anyone, from solopreneurs to enterprises.
What types of tasks or workflows can users automate with SageFlow?
Users can automate customer support, lead qualification, research, data extraction, content generation, and more. The platform is versatile, supporting use cases across marketing, sales, operations, finance, personal productivity, and much much more. If a task is repetitive and logic-driven, it can be automated with SageFlow. We are seeing a variety of use cases. Some users even want to build an agent for their Twitch streaming, and others are planning on using it in their investment banking workflows. Their is essentially no limitation on what you can accomplish with agents.
What are the biggest misconceptions people have about AI and automation?
Many believe AI will replace jobs, but in reality, it enhances human productivity by handling repetitive tasks. Another misconception is that AI is only for developers—SageFlow proves that anyone can leverage AI with the right tools. Lastly, AI isn’t magic; it requires thoughtful design and real-world data to be effective.
What role do AI agents play in improving productivity for businesses?
AI agents act as digital assistants, handling time-consuming workflows so teams can focus on high-value work. They streamline processes, reduce errors, and enable businesses and users to scale operations efficiently. By automating repetitive tasks, companies save time and resources while improving decision-making. Imagine an army of agents doing a slew of tasks for you. That’s the world we’re headed towards.
What advice would you give to entrepreneurs looking to enter the no-code space?
Focus on solving real problems, not just building cool tech—usability and value are everything. Community and user feedback are invaluable; engage early and iterate fast. Lastly, persistence is key—breaking into the no-code space requires educating users and overcoming skepticism. Do as many customer discovery calls as you can. In a world where software is no longer a barrier, distribution is a key factor.
What are some books, podcasts, or resources that have influenced your journey?
Blitzscaling by Reid Hoffman and the Mom Test by Rob Fitzpatrick shaped my approach to iteration and growth. The My Fist Million podcast also offers great insights from founders who’ve scaled startups.
