🏢 Imagine your Notion app as an office building. It's always been a cozy and comfortable place to do your best work. And everyone on your team gets their own personal assistant here. Your assistant answers your questions, takes meeting notes for you, and tackles one-off tasks whenever you ask. But when you step into your office today, you'll notice there are brand new AI teammates: CUSTOM AGENTS. They don't wait for you to prompt them. They roam around the office autonomously! They have their own permissions, their own job descriptions. They route product feedback and bug reports to the right team. They hang out in Slack, answering your teammates' questions. They keep tabs on your projects, and share status updates. Custom Agents are here, and they're ready to automate your team's busywork. (Shout out to Ian McClanan for producing this video with me, in record time!)
The shift from assistants that wait to agents that act is a big one. When they handle the background work, teams get their focus back.
The “own permissions, own job descriptions” part is where it gets interesting. Biggest challenge with autonomous agents isn’t building them - it’s defining what they should and shouldn’t do. That’s an org design problem, not a tech one.
Big fan!! Looking forward to using the custom agents ASAP
Just $10 a pop lol
Openclaw?
Has anyone tested how many tokens/ costs it would be for some standard use cases? It’s been getting too easy to burn through a months worth of tokens in a day with these agents
