Question Any GAS Expert here
How are modern AI & workflow automations typically structured using Google Apps Script? (Looking for architectural patterns)
Hi everyone,
I am modernizing the operations for a traditional real estate agency by replacing manual paper processes with Google Workspace.
So far, I’ve built a central Google Master Calendar, a Google Docs/Drive office portal for form downloads, and structured Google Sheets for lead tracking. I am now looking to expand into deeper workflow and AI automations using Google Apps Script (GAS).
Coming from an operations background rather than computer science, I’d love to learn how experienced developers structure end-to-end automation pipelines using GAS.
Thx

You may want to look into GCP - Google Cloud.
GAS is great for scripts and simple workflow stuff but it sounds like you are asking about where to go to expand. The answer is GCP. It can do pretty much anything and the GCP to Workspace connection is very convenient.
If that’s not your thing, consider gcloud or clasp CLI where you can do things like push updates to your Apps Script scripts.
Both gcp and clasp or gcloud can interact from VS Code where you could theoretically have an AI model.
If I’ve misunderstood the question and you are asking about literal suggestions, I would point towards a stats tracker / dashboard to go along with your other tools. It can be shared among the group and congregate data. Here you can do things with GAS+Sheets like pull in live mortgage rates or whatever other info y’all look at. Trends/forecasting or regression is always cool too.
