    Agentlyfree tier, from $33/mo▲336

    Agently is an AI Work OS where documents, tasks, team chat, and integrations are fully interconnected, and AI employees operate inside that shared workspace. Instead of prompting AI in isolation, agents can read project context, turn strategy docs into tasks, coordinate with teammates, run research/outreach/content workflows, update boards, and push results back into the system or external tools. The workspace acts as persistent memory, so work continues instead of resetting every prompt. Happy to answer any questions

    Hi HN, I built Agent OS because I was tired of the "orchestration tax" – writing the same safety checks, memory management, and tool-handling code in every AI agent project. What it does: - Visual policy editor in VS Code (no more YAML wrestling) - Multi-model verification (GPT-4 + Claude + Gemini consensus before risky actions) - Built-in compliance frameworks (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC2, PCI-DSS) - 50+ agent templates for common use cases - One-click deployment to GitHub Actions The core idea: Instead of building orchestration on top of your code, Agent OS provides an "operating system" layer that…

    An autonomous agent you can hand a shell to. Every tool call passes a gate that grants authority for exact arguments, once, for 30 seconds — and logs the verdict.

    Cheers HN, We're Oli and Pascal, two friends from ETH Zürich. We built a network of AI Agents for large organisations, that finally gets rid of all admin work for employees. Current features are: - Schedule, move or cancel meetings (via Google Calendar or locally) - Dynamically adapt meetings according to stakeholders’ availabilities (internal communication of the agents) - Summarize incoming mails (via Gmail) - Create a project plan (command: plan XXX = [project description]) including stakeholders, timeline and cost estimate - Plan, assign and view tasks - Do all of the above via audio We…

    For context, we started working on our general AI agent CraftBot before OpenClaw came out. It works similarly to OpenClaw and Hermes agent: control your PC to do task + memory + proactivity. However, here is the catch: it can create and operate its own SaaS tools with the concept of Living UI Living UI is a system where an AI agent can scaffold and launch real, working web apps on demand. Each living UI can be a dashboard/software/internal tool. They are essentially just frontend with X techstack talking to a backend + database with the techstack of your choice, spun up in its own…
