Your First AI Employee, at Work in One Sitting

The hardest part of AI employees has never been the AI. It is the first hour. Deciding what to hand off, writing the job down, connecting the tools, and trusting the result enough to let it out the door. The new onboarding turns that hour into one guided conversation with your Coordinator, from sign-up to a finished first piece of work.

Meet your Coordinator

Your Coordinator manages your AI team, and the first thing you do is give it a name and a face. The conversation runs on the left and each step on the right, so you can talk it through or just click. Leave at any point and you pick up exactly where you stopped.

It learns your company first

Before asking you anything, the Coordinator looks up your company. From your work email it finds your website and the tools your team already uses, and shows each one with the reason it was found, so you can switch off anything it got wrong. If it can't tell where your team chats, it asks, with one-tap answers. Then it reads your website, your help center and your FAQ in the background, and reads them again every week, so your employees start out knowing what your customers ask.

Pick the first job

The first task comes from your own tools: five suggestions, such as answering support conversations, following up on leads or preparing a weekly report, each named after the tools you actually use. Or choose “Something else” and describe the work in a few answers.

The Coordinator then asks a handful of questions about the job, including how long it takes your team today, and writes the job description with you: what the employee reacts to as work arrives, what it does on a schedule, and the rules it follows. Anything you type about the draft is applied to it, so the job ends up in your words.

Hire, connect, check what it knows

Review the name, the look, the job and the tools, and hire. Your new employee gets its own accounts in your tools, so everything it does is done as itself and shows up as its own work. A chat tool is the one connection it needs to start. Then check what it already knows: keep, change or remove what was read from your website, and add anything else it should know.

Watch the first piece of work

The first run is real work with the brakes on. Your employee does the task in your tools, but nothing leaves: replies, emails and updates come back to you as drafts. “Approve and send” sends exactly what you saw. “Decide later” keeps them for you on the dashboard. Whatever you say about the result becomes part of the job, the same way AI employees show their work every day after that.

From there

When you move on to your dashboard, the Coordinator keeps the team running: it checks in, picks up work nobody was assigned and helps you hire the next specialist. The getting started guide covers the rest, and our earlier piece on onboarding your first AI agent goes deeper on choosing the work to hand off.
