Frequently Asked Questions
What is an AI agent?
An AI agent is software that can perceive its environment, reason about a goal, and take actions to complete it — without constant human input. Unlike chatbots that answer questions, agents act on the answers.
Are AI agents the same as AI automation?
Related but different. AI automation follows rules you define. AI agents use reasoning to figure out the steps themselves. Agents are more flexible but require more careful setup.
What's the best way to start with AI agents?
Pick one high-volume, repetitive task your team does today. Choose an agent platform that specializes in that task. Deploy, measure, and expand from there.
