An AI agent is a model given instructions, tools and data access, so it can carry out steps of a task as well as answer questions.

New to an AI agent?
What is an AI agent?
Its tools are narrow actions in your systems, such as looking up an order or drafting a refund, often exposed through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
A person approves any step that commits money, data or a customer promise, and every action is logged.
Where you are starting from
Which platform should your AI agent run on?
We build on all of them. The right one depends on where the work and the people already are.
Where does the work live?

What we do
What does AI agent development include?
Six pieces of work, the same on every platform.
01Platform choiceAgentforce, Claude, OpenAI, n8n or Copilot Studio, picked by where the work lives.
- Where the data and users are
- Licenses you already hold
- Hosting and data rules
02Agent designInstructions, scope, tools and the points where a person decides.
- One job, clearly bounded
- What the agent must never do
- Handoff to a person
03Tool and MCP server designNarrow, safe actions in your systems.
- Read tools before write tools
- Inputs validated
- MCP servers with scoped access
04Human approvalApprovals in Slack, Teams, email or Salesforce.
- Limits per action
- A named approver
- Every decision logged
05Testing and evaluationReal cases replayed and graded before release.
- Task completion
- Tool choice
- Refusals and handoffs
06Deployment and monitoringLive with logs, alerts and a named owner.
- Every tool call logged
- Alerts on failures
- Regular transcript reviews
Autonomy
How much should an AI agent do on its own?
Each action is placed on a tier. The tier decides whether a person approves it.
- Never
ExamplesDeleting records, changing permissions, paying out money.
ControlsNo tool exists for it, so the agent cannot attempt it.
- Approve first
ExamplesRefunds, contract changes, emails to customers.
ControlsThe agent drafts; a named person approves before it runs.
- Act and report
ExamplesUpdating a case status, booking a slot, creating a task.
ControlsRuns alone within limits, logged and reviewed.
- Read freely
ExamplesLooking up orders, policies and account history.
ControlsRead-only tools scoped to what the user may see.
Tools and MCP
What tools does an AI agent need, and where does MCP fit?
Each tool is one narrow action in one or more systems. MCP servers expose them so any compliant agent can use the same set.
Agent tools
- Look up order
- Check refund policy
- Draft refund
- Create case
- Book technician
Your systems
- ERP
- Knowledge base
- CRM
- Field service
One action per tool
Small tools are easier to test, approve and log than one broad one.
Scoped access
Each MCP server holds only the permissions its tools need.
Shared across platforms
Claude, OpenAI and Copilot Studio agents can call MCP servers, so one tool set serves several agents.
Testing
How do you test an AI agent before release?
Real cases, replayed on every change. An agent ships when it meets the rules agreed with you.
Task completion
HowReal cases replayed end to end
Release ruleAgreed pass rate met
Tool choice

Cost and timing
What it costs and how long it takes
The review is free
A 60-minute architecture review of your AI agent setup, with a written plan you keep.
A fixed-scope proposal first
Before any work starts you get a written proposal: a fixed-scope project with milestones, or a monthly plan. You approve it, or you do not.
Timing follows scope
How long it takes depends on what is in scope. The proposal states the milestones, so you see the timeline before you commit.

Frequently asked questions
AI agents, answered.
Straight answers about platforms, MCP, human approval, testing and live agents.
The design, build and testing of AI agents that take actions in business systems, with narrow tools, human approval on steps that commit, logging, and a test set run before every release.
A chatbot answers. An agent can also act: it calls tools to look up records, draft changes or update systems, within limits you set and with approval where needed.
Salesforce Agentforce, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, n8n and Microsoft Copilot Studio. We choose by where the work and the users are.
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard for connecting AI agents to tools and data. Anthropic introduced it, and it is now hosted by the Agentic AI Foundation under the Linux Foundation.
Every action gets an autonomy tier. Anything that commits money, data or a customer promise waits for a named approver, and every decision is logged.
Yes. Two of our Agentforce agents run on a real Salesforce org, and you can see them in our AI agents library.
If the work lives in Salesforce, Agentforce is usually the better fit. If it crosses many tools, Claude or OpenAI with n8n often is. Our Claude and n8n page covers that option.
Tools are narrow and scoped, write actions need approval, text from emails and documents is treated as data, and injection cases are part of the test set.
