Interesting idea. i think the difficult part isn't just making an agent available as a SaaS, but making it reliable, easy to integrate with other tools and simple for users to manage.
Yeah, I have been searching. I know a couple people running openclaw on some spare machines but I find them constantly having to tinker with it. It seems not all that reliable when it comes to admin work. I have small business and not enough revenue to do the admin work. I am outdoors a lot for my biz so I don't have the ability to go through my emails book appointments, etc... I thought someone would have an online solution for this already. Set up an email and calendar and an agent is already built in. Nothing seems to be really like that. All the agents people rave about or the better part of SV is just personal stuff like dinner reservations or getting tickets... I dont need that bs, I need an agent to read business emails, escalate what needs my attention, perform scheduling ping pongs for me.
That's a good point. most of the tools I've seen still require quite a bit of setup and maintenance. For a small business owner, it should just work in the background without having to constantly monitor or fix the agent.
I’ve been looking for something like this as well as a small business owner. Not technically savvy enough to set up any of those ai agents and bots so been looking for something that I can just sign up for that has everything build in and I don’t have to give it access to all my emails and private information
Seriousy, no one has anything available. Hiring a part time admin is a couple thousand a month. I would pay half that for an AI agent to do emailing and scheduling and contract rounds.
I’ve not officially launched it, it hav therm using it as my daily driver for a few months. I may in the future add BYOK, but for now I’m a lot more focused in improving it for real world usefulness. The goal is to really answer the question “what is the actual benefit of LLMs”, for these personas:
1. Business: a business leader (CXO, or any other decision maker or managerial type) that is drowning in processes, meetings, plans, research, experimentation, and needs a team of specialists following them wherever they go.
2. Building: An engineer who wants to get as close as possible to a Jarvis like experience (not there yet, but getting the pieces together) that they can trust, instead of yelling constantly at agents and just saying “ship it”.
3. General: A normie (or your mother) that just needs help getting through their day, reading her emails, killing all the spam, replying, answering questions on whatever they need.
4. Physical: Eventually someone like a farmer, that can manage their entire operation by injecting sensor data into the app and monitoring performance, identifying plagues, etc.
The main goal is 100% privacy friendly, no training and absolutely no claim on anyone’s data now in the future. I actually wonder how one can insure that this outlives acquisitions (not that I expect to be acquired)
Try it out, mostly I’m just expecting some feedback. Thanks!
Thanks, this looks genuinely cool but way too technical for me. I am not trying to code or build anything. I just need an automated AI agent that can access siloed email and calendar oh and probably documents for client agreements to send back and forth. Nothing I have to custamize of or tweak to get it to work.
You actually don’t. You signup, connect your email (IMAP or Google OAuth), plug into your telegram or WhatsApp and you get an agent that manages your email. You can go as deep as you need, or as “just an assistant” as you need. I may post some demos soon.

So true... an AI agent for the rest of us... solo entrepreneurs and small biz that dont have technical know how.

Mobile app is on the roadmap.
