FAQ
What is an AI employee?
An AI employee is an AI agent assigned to a recurring job—like sales outreach, support triage, or bookkeeping—that runs autonomously across your tools. Unlike a chatbot, it acts on a schedule or trigger and completes work.
What is an AI workforce?
An AI workforce is a coordinated team of AI employees handling different jobs, with orchestration so the right agent picks up the right task automatically.
What's the difference between an AI employee and a chatbot?
A chatbot waits for questions; an AI employee runs on its own, checking inboxes, updating CRMs, and sending follow-ups on a schedule or triggered by events.
Which AI models do you use?
We support top-tier LLMs including OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, Gemini, Grok, and open-source models, choosing the best based on use case and privacy needs.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Your AI Teammate works in a secure, siloed environment with enterprise-grade encryption, and your data is isolated to your workspace.
