Everyday Workflow Integration
“Here's the difference: because it's an agent with its own computer and email, that means it has access to software the same way a user does. You invite it to your Slack channels, you add it to email threads, you share files and set access levels the same way you would with any teammate. The more context you give it, the better it gets. Share the document with Ace and use the tools inherent to that platform. It jumps into the document, suggests changes, and you approve its work. It can book appointments for you through a Calendly link, a website, or an email thread, handling all the back and forth. Ace uses a computer like a person, so you collaborate with it like a coworker. The Automat platform gives you one place to train, teach, and understand Ace as you work together.”
