AI WORKFLOWS

Build the automation once. It works every week after.

Multi-step automations your team builds without code: AI analysis chained into emails, Slack posts, and tasks. Run them manually, on every upload, or on a weekly schedule.

The workflow agent gallery: hire an agent, each role states what it watches, its first move, and the hours it gives back
Hire an agent: each role states what it watches, its first move, and the hours it gives back. Pick one and the builder opens prefilled.
FIVE TRIGGERS
01Run manually. Fire it from the workflow page when you need it.
02When a proposal is uploaded. Every new document gets a first read.
03Every week. Radars and digests on a schedule.
04When a purchase request arrives. Intake triage runs itself.
05When a question arrives by email. The inbox becomes an agent.
EIGHT STEP TYPES

Every AI step is grounded in your live portfolio data: contracts, agreements, spend, and benchmark standings. Templates like Renewal prep memo use variables that fill in from whatever triggered the run.
THE BUILDER

Name it, pick a trigger, stack the steps.

Describe what the analyst step should cover in plain language, paste your own output template if you want the memo in your house style, and add steps with one click. Pause, edit, or run any workflow at any time.

ASK BY EMAIL

Ten agents you can reach from any inbox.

Employees email a question to a private agent address; a white-paper answer comes back. Proposal price checks, discount sanity checks, risky-terms scans, should-we-buy advice, and more.

Email rails in settings: deal email-in, invoice email-in, purchase request email-in, and ask an agent by email

VERA, YOUR ANALYST

A named analyst that stays on the case.

Vera runs a grounded streaming chat over your contracts and the market, every figure cited back to stored data. Save an ask and turn it into a watch that re-runs on a schedule, so the answer lands before you think to ask again. Spoken mode reads the briefing aloud.

Grounded chat. Answers over your contracts, spend, and benchmark standings.
Saved asks and watches. Keep a question and let it re-run on schedule.
Spoken mode. The briefing read aloud when you are away from the screen.

CUSTOM AGENTS

Beyond the ten inbox agents and the six specialist playbook agents, define up to six of your own: give each a custom prompt, set its depth, and choose which documents it may read.

Custom prompt. Your language, your priorities, your house style.
Set the depth. A quick read or a full analysis.
Scope the documents. Choose exactly what each agent may read.
AGENT NEGOTIATION PROTOCOL

An open protocol for agent-to-agent negotiation.

ANP v0.1 is a published spec at /protocol with an open API at /api/agent/v1, so your agent and a counterparty's agent can negotiate directly. Every exchange is written to a hash-chain ledger, an append-only record either side can verify.
