Product & market

Pricing

Not publicly disclosed; public sources suggest subscription SaaS / enterprise contract pricing with implementation-led deals, and one third-party source lists a free plan plus paid plans starting at $70 per user per month.

Differentiators

  • —Embedded forward-deployed engineers who learn the customer's operations and build custom agents
  • —Agents can operate across APIs, warehouses, legacy tools, CRMs, and browser-based interfaces
  • —Focus on complex, non-templateable operational tasks rather than simple deflection
  • —Enterprise security posture: tenant isolation, JIT sandboxes, SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and no training on customer data
  • —Claims custom agents can be built in weeks, not quarters
