Managed platform for building and running AI agents that work in the background
Describe the job and shape an agent in plain language, then add memory, knowledge and abilities without writing code.
Start from complete blueprints — agent, knowledge, abilities and integrations — such as operations manager, concierge, support or campaign manager agents.
Agents run on weekdays, hourly or on events from your tools, and deploy to widgets, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, Telegram and your own apps at once.
Decide what agents may do, require human approval for sensitive actions and review every conversation and run in one history.

A cloud-hosted Hermes AI agent that stays online and learns you over time
The Hermes agent runs in the cloud continuously, so scheduled jobs and monitors continue even when your own devices are offline.
Project facts, conventions and communication preferences are retained, so the agent adapts to your style and needs less repeated context.
Connect the agent to WeChat, QQ, WeCom, DingTalk, Feishu and international messengers so it lives inside your existing conversations.
Create cron reminders, recurring reports and monitoring rules that trigger on conditions such as order delays or price drops.
