Follow the whole journey
Trace work across clients, staff, systems, email, spreadsheets, messages, and offline steps.
Operator workflow field notes
Make the work visible before you try to automate it.
MulanDream maps the people, handoffs, evidence, exceptions, and workarounds behind the tools small teams wish existed.
Study the exceptions
Find the wrong file, missing handoff, unclear owner, stale status, and recovery path that a happy-path demo omits.
Improve the smallest coherent part
Use the map to choose a process change, existing product, configuration, or narrow custom tool.
