# Hire an AI employee for your business.

> Give it a role, your processes, your data and the tools it needs to work.

It researches, manages tasks, talks to your team and customers, works inside your business systems, and keeps going without waiting for someone to tell it what to do next. Start with one job. Expand when it works.

### Why owning the follow-up matters

- **28%** of a sales rep's week is actually spent selling. The rest goes to admin, data entry and research. ([Salesforce, State of Sales (5th ed.) – 7,775 reps across 38 countries](https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/sales-research-2023/))
- **7×** more likely to qualify a lead when it is contacted within the first hour than after it. ([Harvard Business Review – analysis of 2.24 million leads](https://hbr.org/2011/03/the-short-life-of-online-sales-leads))
- **21×** better odds of qualifying when the reply comes in five minutes instead of thirty. (Lead Response Management study, MIT / InsideSales)

## Why not just use ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is something your employees use. Agentic is someone who works for your company.

| ChatGPT / Claude | Agentic |
|---|---|
| Ask a question | Give it a responsibility |
| Starts from the conversation | Keeps a persistent role |
| Produces an answer | Works through tasks |
| You operate the tools | It operates connected tools |
| You remember what needs doing | It manages ongoing work |
| One interaction at a time | Works continuously |

A chatbot waits for you. An employee has work to do.

## You decide how autonomous it is.

An AI employee doesn't have to start with unlimited access. Give it more responsibility as it proves itself.

- **Can observe**: Read information and prepare recommendations. (Read the CRM, Draft a proposal)
- **Can execute**: Perform routine tasks on its own. (Log a call, Schedule a follow-up)
- **Needs approval**: Ask before sending, purchasing, publishing or changing important records. (Email a client, Move a deal stage)
- **Always human**: Actions the employee is never allowed to perform. (Sign a contract, Make a payment)

## Your employees, your systems, your processes.

An AI employee needs context to work, and controlled context to work safely.

- **Context & Control**: Give each employee the knowledge, history and instructions the job needs, and nothing beyond it. Role-based access, approvals and an audit trail keep it inside those boundaries.
- **Knowledge**: Your documents, databases, policies and company knowledge.
- **Tools**: CRM, email, Slack, WhatsApp, ERP, spreadsheets, APIs and your own software.
- **Tasks**: Recurring work, projects, requests and follow-ups.
- **Communication**: The channels your people already use.
- **Permissions**: Exactly what the employee can see and do.
- **Human workflows**: Approvals, escalation and collaboration with your team.

## Start with one employee.

You don't need an AI transformation project. Start with one role, one workflow and one real business problem.

1. **Pilot**: One role. One workflow. A real business task.
2. **Employee**: Continuous work across your systems.
3. **AI Team**: Several employees working together.

Prove the economics before you scale. We can run your employees for you, or hand them over for your team to manage.
