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