Outproduce

AI agents

AI agents that do the work, inside your systems.

An agent reads the request, uses the tools you allow, checks its own result and acts: answers the customer, updates the record, routes the exception. Outproduce builds agents for one job at a time, with scoped permissions, approval gates and a log of every step.

One direct Fit Review. No sales handoff.

    What this build changes.

    A general assistant can draft an answer. It cannot safely run company work until its sources, tools, action rights, failure behaviour and owner are explicit.

    One run

    What a single run looks like.

    Every step is recorded with its input, the decision, and whether it ran on its own, waited for a person, or was read back from the receiving system.

      Automated

    Each step is written to the audit trail with the tool, the input and the decision.

    A chatbot tells your customer where to look. An agent looks it up, does the task and closes the loop.

    The difference is tools and judgment. Our agents call your systems, follow your rules and know when to stop and ask a person. Autonomy is earned one action class at a time, never granted by default.

    What we build

    Each offering, before and after.

    Pick the stage that matches where the work gets stuck. Each card names the manual state, the installed state, and the outcome the team can check.

    Customers

    Customer support agent

    Looks up the order, the account and the policy, then answers or resolves the ticket. Anything unclear or sensitive goes to your team with the context attached.

    Before
    Every ticket waits in a queue
    After
    Routine resolved, rest escalated
    Routine tickets closed without a person
    Operations

    Internal knowledge and operations assistant

    Answers how-to and data questions from your internal systems and documents, with sources attached, and routes what it cannot answer to the right owner.

    Before
    Same questions to the same people
    After
    Answered from your sources, routed if not

    Back-office agent

    Handles the judgment steps in admin work: is this invoice complete, does this claim match the policy, which team owns this request.

    Lead qualification agent

    Scores every inbound enquiry against your criteria, enriches it from approved sources, and alerts the right person the moment a strong one arrives.

    Research agent

    Researches accounts, suppliers or competitors across the web and your CRM, and writes a sourced brief in your format for a person to review.

    Multi-agent workflows

    When one job spans research, drafting, checking and filing, we split it across coordinated agents, each with its own tools and limits, and a person signs off at the end.

    How it is put together

    Inputs, the system, and what comes out.

    • KnowledgeApproved documents, policies, past cases
    • RulesPermissions, limits, confidence threshold

    • LogsEvery step, for audit

    The system follows the operating job.

    Concrete paths, not a bag of features.

    Each example begins with a trigger, crosses named records, assigns approval, and ends in a state people can verify.

    Common workflow

    Support preparation and handoff

    Trigger
    A request arrives through an approved support channel.
    Crosses
    Helpdesk, account records, policy sources and the response queue.
    System role
    Finds the account and approved policy, drafts the response and prepares any narrow action.
    Human gate
    Refunds, account changes, policy exceptions and uncertainty wait for support.
    Finished when
    The approved response is sent and recorded, or the case is handed off with context.
    Common workflow

    Internal policy assistant

    Trigger
    A team member asks an operating question.
    Crosses
    Approved documents, decision records and the internal interface.
    System role
    Retrieves the smallest relevant context and returns the answer with its sources.
    Human gate
    Conflicts, missing policy and consequential interpretation go to the policy owner.
    Finished when
    The user receives a source-linked answer or a named escalation.
    Private build

    AI production preparation

    Trigger
    An approved brief enters the production queue.
    Crosses
    Source records, brand rules, model tools, QA and delivery state.
    System role
    Prepares research and outputs, applies quality checks and packages a review set.
    Human gate
    A person approves before delivery or publication.
    Finished when
    The chosen output keeps its source, review and delivery record.

    Useful because the limits are explicit.

    Reads
    Only approved context and the records required for the current job.
    Prepares
    Research, summaries, drafts, classifications, decisions or tool calls with their basis attached.
    Does
    Narrow, reversible actions after the action class has earned authority.
    Escalates
    Low confidence, conflicting sources, missing permissions, unusual cases and consequential requests.
    Connections

    Built inside the tools you already run.

    The install connects to the CRM, inbox, project tool, finance system and documents that carry the work today. Every connection proves a read, a scoped write and a readback before it goes live.

    See how a connection is provenMarks identify the software these systems connect to. No endorsement or partnership implied.

    Connected to the stack. Governed at the action.

    The chosen model and framework do not define ownership. The agreement does. Code, prompts, credentials, context, data, deployment and ongoing evaluation are assigned explicitly.

    Common surfaces

    • Approved knowledge sources
    • CRM and account records
    • Email and helpdesk
    • Project systems

    Rollout

    How it reaches production.

    Nothing acts on real records until it has been right under review. Authority is granted per action class and stays visible.

    Before a Fit Review.

    What is the difference between an AI agent and a chatbot?

    A chatbot answers questions. An agent completes tasks: it reads the request, decides what to do, calls your tools, checks the result and acts. Outproduce builds agents that work inside your existing systems within limits you set.

    What can an agent access?

    Only what you give it. Each agent runs with its own scoped credentials, read-only to start. Write access is added one action class at a time, and risky actions can require a person every time.

    What happens when the agent gets it wrong?

    Low-confidence cases go to a person before anything happens. When a miss gets through review, it is in the audit log. We trace the cause and fix the prompt, tool or rule in the next tuning cycle.

    Which models do you use?

    The model is chosen per step: a capable model for judgment-heavy steps, smaller models where speed and cost matter more. Your data is not used to train models. The model does not define ownership; the agreement does.

    How much does an agent cost to run?

    It depends on the tools it connects to, the volume it handles and how much review it needs. The running-cost page explains what drives spend. A fixed build price comes from the Operating Map.

    Can you run the agent for us?

    Yes. You can own the agent and run it yourselves after a documented handover, or Outproduce operates it under a managed agreement with monitoring, tuning and a regular report.
