Describe a task

Name one task you never want to do again.

You still do the same job by hand every week. Tell us which one. We watch how you actually do it, build the automation, and run it from our side. There is no software for you to learn.

Goes straight to hello@agentiumlab.com.

How a task leaves your week

  1. You describe it

    A call, or a few lines in an email. What the task is, how often it comes up, and who absorbs it today.

  2. We watch it once

    You do the task the way you normally would, exceptions included. The exceptions are what make an automation survive contact with a real week.

  3. We build it and run it

    The automation runs on our side. When the task changes, you tell us and we change it.

The same task, before and after

Every one of these started as work someone was already doing by hand. The pattern is the same each time: we take the repetition, you keep the judgment.

Examples of the work this service covers. Each automation is built for one business from that business's own process, so none of these is a packaged feature you switch on.
TaskHow it runs nowHow it runs after
Phone enquiriesThe same questions about opening hours, allergens, availability and parking, answered again in the middle of service.Calls answered on your existing number, with the answers you gave us. Anything that needs you arrives as a text, with the caller and the question.
Supplier invoicesEvery line retyped from a PDF or a paper invoice into your accounting file.Invoices read as they arrive and checked against what you ordered. Only the mismatches wait for you.
Menu and pricesOne price change retyped into the website, into each delivery platform, and onto the printed sheet.One change, applied everywhere that price appears, with a record of what changed and when.
Review repliesReviews left sitting for two weeks, then answered in a batch late at night.A reply drafted in your own wording within the hour, held until you approve it.
End of day totalsAdding up the till, the card terminal and each delivery platform to find where the three disagree.The totals reconciled overnight. In the morning you look only at the differences.
Unpaid invoicesKeeping track in your head of who owes you and which quote never came back.Follow-ups sent on the schedule you set, handed back to you when a reply needs a decision.

What this asks of you

Handing a task over has to cost less than keeping it. This is everything the arrangement takes from your week, and what stays yours.

Your time
One conversation to describe the task, and one session where we watch you do it. After that, only the exceptions come back to you.
Your decisions
Anything the automation is unsure about returns to you with the work it already did, so you decide rather than start over.
Your existing tools
We work with the till, accounting, booking and delivery tools you already run. Nothing is ripped out and replaced.
Stopping
If you stop, we hand over what was built and how it runs, so the task does not simply land back on you overnight.

What we will not automate

Three limits, stated before you ask. They are part of the offer, not fine print underneath it.

  • A decision your customer would notice

    Pricing, refunds, the exception you make for a regular. If it changes what you promise someone, it stays with you.

  • A task that should not exist

    Sometimes the work only exists because of how something upstream is organised. We will say so instead of selling you an automation for it.

  • Anything customer-facing you have not read

    Nothing goes in front of your customers until you have seen the wording it will use.

What an AI team is

An AI employee is one automation that holds one job, start to finish, the way your business already does it. An AI team is the set of them working for you. Nothing to open, nothing to learn.

What an AI team is, in two diagrams: how a job done for you differs from a tool you use, and where the week's repeated work ends up.

Describe one task

Write down the task, the kind of business you run, and how often it comes up. That is enough for us to tell you whether it is worth automating and what it would take.
