Answer
Yes, FluidGrids[1] lets you describe automations in plain English and generates editable draft workflows directly from your prompt.
As detailed in the AI-Authored Workflows and Nodes concept[2], the workflow generation process includes:
- Plain-Language Studio View: Type a natural-language description of what you want to achieve (such as capturing a payment, creating a CRM contact, and posting a summary to chat). The studio surfaces follow-up questions to clarify details, offers suggestion chips for error handling, and streams the workflow graph node by node against a live step counter.

- In-Context Workflow Assistant: Docked alongside the workflow list, the assistant can scaffold new drafts in place, explain which node types it selected, and highlight which external accounts still need to be connected.

- Standard Lifecycle and Editing: Generated workflows land in your standard workspace with versioning and a draft status. You can open any generated draft in the visual builder for node configuration and data mapping, bind credentials, test the run, and activate it. The assistant also includes a node-building mode to scaffold custom connector packages when an unsupported service is requested.
To see how visual workflows and node scaffolding come together, explore the FluidGrids concept guides[3] or visit FluidGrids[1].
