Problems we fix

When AI automation becomes business-critical, small failures become operational risk.

Broken AI workflows

Workflows stop, fail unpredictably, or require repeated manual intervention.

Failing automations

APIs, credentials, schemas, or integrations change and disrupt production.

Silent failures

A workflow appears successful but produces missing, incomplete, or untrustworthy results.

Agent access risks

Agents can read, change, or trigger more than their assigned task requires.

Permission sprawl

Tokens, service accounts, and inherited permissions accumulate without clear ownership.

Governance gaps

Approval points, workflow ownership, audit evidence, and escalation responsibilities are unclear.

Production instability

Monitoring, retries, fallbacks, rollback, and recovery procedures are missing or untested.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before you request an audit.

What does IT Chefs do?

IT Chefs helps founders and technical teams recover unreliable AI workflows, review what agents and integrations can access or change, and improve production monitoring, governance, and recovery.

What is an AI workflow reliability audit?

An AI workflow reliability audit reviews how a workflow operates, where it can fail, what data and tools it uses, how errors are detected, and whether the team can recover safely.

Who is the Blast Radius Audit for?

The audit is for founders, operators, and technical teams using AI agents, n8n, APIs, webhooks, or connected automations that are unreliable, business-critical, or operating with unclear access boundaries.

Can IT Chefs repair broken n8n workflows?

Yes. IT Chefs can diagnose and repair broken or unreliable n8n workflows within an agreed scope, including failed nodes, integration errors, credential issues, validation, alerting, and recovery paths.

What does an agent access review cover?

An agent access review maps what an agent can read, change, and trigger. It examines credentials, tools, data paths, permissions, ownership, and where human approval should be required.

How much does the Blast Radius Audit cost?

The 24-Hour AI Workflow Blast Radius Audit starts at $499. Final scope and price are confirmed before work begins.
