What Is an AI Agent?
An AI agent is an AI system designed to complete a task or workflow, not just answer a single message. AI agents can follow instructions, use tools, evaluate context, and help move work forward across sales, support, marketing, HR, CRM, and operations.
How AI Agents Work
AI agents usually combine a model, instructions, context, tools, memory, and workflow rules. The model reasons through the task, while tools and connectors help it work with real apps or data.
AI Agent Examples
- Sales AI agents for lead follow-up.
- Customer support AI agents for FAQ and ticket triage.
- WhatsApp AI agents for business replies.
- HR screening AI agents for candidate intake.
- WordPress content AI agents for publishing workflows.
