Agents
- What it is
- Software that can read, decide and act on a task you would otherwise give to a person, inside limits you set. It works from your systems and your rules, and it stops to ask a human when it should.
- The problem it solves
- Work that needs a bit of judgement, all day, every day. Reading incoming requests and working out what to do with them. Triaging an inbox. Answering the same customer questions from your own documents. Chasing the same follow-ups.
- What it looks like when it lands
- An agent that reads every incoming supplier email, pulls out the order details, checks them against your system, and drafts the reply. A person approves it in seconds instead of writing it in minutes. The queue empties itself. Your team handles the exceptions, not the routine.
