A process map can turn into a tangle of lines

In Tallyfy, each step carries the instructions and form fields the person doing it needs.

A tangled process map becomes four plain steps A tangle of gateways and crossing lines grows until a person walking toward it stops at its edge. The tangle collapses into four numbered steps, 1 to 4, on one line. The person walks through them, and each step gets a green check as the person passes it. Then the picture starts again. 1 2 3 4

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to learn BPMN to use Tallyfy?

No. You write each step in plain words, then choose who does it and when it's due. Nobody on your team has to read a diagram to do their part.

What is Bizagi, and how is Tallyfy different?

Bizagi is a business process management platform for modeling processes and automating them as apps. Tallyfy is for the work people do step by step: you build a template once, then launch it as a separate process each time you need it.

What exactly is Tallyfy?

It's workflow management software for the processes your team repeats, like onboarding or approvals.

How long does it take to set up a process in Tallyfy?

Under 30 minutes for your first one. Our getting-started tutorials walk you through it, and you finish with a process your team can use right away.

How does pricing compare between Bizagi and Tallyfy?

Bizagi's Modeler is free. Its automation platform is priced by how much you use it, and you ask Bizagi for a quote. Tallyfy charges per seat and publishes its prices.

How does AI integration differ between Bizagi and Tallyfy?

In Tallyfy, your own AI, such as ChatGPT or Claude, can complete a step in a running process. A computer AI agent you connect can also finish a step in one of your other apps by clicking and typing. Bizagi's platform includes its own AI agents and an AI assistant called Ada.

How does Tallyfy handle process improvement?

People working on a task can flag a problem on it, and everyone assigned to that task is told. The task can't be completed until the problem is resolved. The template owner then updates the template, so processes launched after that use the fixed version.

What security standards are supported?

Tallyfy has a SOC 2 Type II attestation. Browsers can only reach it over an encrypted connection, because it uses HSTS.

Can I export my process maps from Bizagi Modeler?

Yes. Bizagi Modeler publishes diagrams as PDF, Word and Excel files, or to the web and SharePoint.

Is setup help included?

Yes. We help you build your first templates and train your team, at no extra cost.

How can I get started with Tallyfy?

Book a demo, and we'll set up your free trial.

Can a step need sign-off from several people?

Yes. Turn on "All assignees must complete this task", and the step stays open until every person assigned to it has finished.

Do I need to install Tallyfy?

No. Tallyfy is a web app that runs in any modern browser, on a computer or a phone, so there's nothing to install. A desktop app for Mac and Windows is there if you'd like one.
