AI Agents

Practical AI agents for the work behind the work.

An AI agent is software that carries out a defined task end to end — answering an enquiry, drafting a quote, chasing an invoice — and asks for a person when judgement is needed. Here's a set of agents an SME could put to work, each shaped around how you actually operate.

Works alongside your team A person stays in control of what matters Built on tools you already use
What these are

Not a chatbot, and not a replacement for your team.

Each agent takes on a specific, repetitive job — the kind that quietly eats your week. They draft, sort, chase and summarise; your people review, decide and own the relationship. The point isn't to remove judgement, it's to stop spending it on admin.

Defined job

One agent, one job

Each agent does a single task well, with a clear handover point — not a vague assistant trying to do everything.

Human in the loop

You approve what counts

Anything that touches money, a customer promise, or risk is drafted by the agent and signed off by a person.

Fits your stack

On top of what you run

They connect to the email, calendar, accounting and CRM tools you already use — no rip-and-replace.

How it works

What “agentic” actually means.

A chatbot waits for a question and gives an answer. An agent is given a goal and works towards it — breaking the job into steps, using the tools you already run, taking the routine actions itself, and stopping for a person at the point that needs judgement. The difference isn’t cleverness. It’s that an agent does the task, not just talks about it.

Worked example · Ivy, invoicing & credit control
GOAL  Overdue £2,400 invoice → paid, without you chasing it
Systems it works across
Accounting
Inbox
Records
You
  1. 1
    Notices the invoice is 14 days overdue in your accounting tool.
  2. 2
    Checks the history — this customer always pays, just late.
  3. 3
    Drafts a firm-but-friendly reminder with the amount and a payment link.
  4. 4
    Pauses for you — stages the email for one-click approval. You approve ✓
  5. 5
    Acts on approval: sends it, logs it, schedules the next nudge.
  6. 6
    Hands over the moment the customer replies — that’s for a person.
Then keeps watching — the loop runs again on the next overdue invoice.

The point: Ivy did the chasing you never get round to — and you kept control of the customer relationship.

The line-up

These are illustrative agents, not an off-the-shelf product. Click any one to see what it does, what it needs to work, and where a person stays in control. We'd configure the real set around your priorities.

Illustrative only. What each agent can safely do depends on your tools, data and the level of oversight you want — that's exactly what we'd scope together before anything goes live.
