Build, deploy, and govern production-ready agentic AI workflows
A visual canvas where retrieval, branching, tool calls, human review, and model steps form a visible, testable execution path you can debug and hand off.
Create agents through chat or manual configuration, give them skills, tools, and knowledge, then ship them as apps, embeds, or reusable nodes inside workflows.
Build repeatable ingestion pipelines for documents, sites, and drives, with extraction, cleaning, chunking, indexing, and retrieval testing before you go live.
Install model providers, tools, data sources, and MCP integrations once and reuse approved plugins across every app in the workspace.
AI sidebar and browser agent for reading, writing and research
A persistent panel that reads the page you are on and answers follow-ups with GPT, Claude or Gemini without copying content into another tab.
Summarise long articles, PDFs and YouTube videos, extract key points, and ask detailed questions about the source material.
Translate webpages, PDFs and images, compare bilingual output side by side, and have content read aloud for review on the move.
Delegate multi-step tasks across real websites — price comparison, form filling, research and inbox triage — using your existing logged-in sessions.
