Give a request a controlled path to action.

Strivo can build agents that work through a defined business task, gather context and prepare actions across selected tools. You set the objective, the permissions and the point where a person decides.

Build an agent around an outcome.

Choose a bounded task that needs several steps and a clear definition of a useful result.

  • Research and reporting

    Gather selected information, compare findings and prepare a report with sources for an owner to review.

  • Document-to-tool tasks

    Extract data from documents and prepare entries for a spreadsheet or business system.

  • Operational coordination

    Check the information needed for a handoff, prepare next steps and route exceptions to the right team.

The plan stays visible

Define what the agent may finish.

A capable agent needs a clear objective and a constrained operating space. The workflow is tested as a complete path.

  1. Set the task

    Define the input, expected result and conditions that mean the task is complete.

    A bounded objective.
  2. Scope tools and decisions

    Choose the information and actions available at each step, including when to ask a person.

    A visible action plan.
  3. Test the whole path

    Check outputs, exceptions and proposed changes against representative cases before rollout.

    An evaluated operating workflow.

Keep the boundaries clear.

Choose the information, actions and oversight the system needs for your business.

Scoped actions

Agree which systems and operations the agent may use. Read access and permission to write are separate decisions.

Human checkpoints

Choose approval points for consequential actions. Expose the proposed changes before they move forward.

Recovery and oversight

Define what happens when a source is unavailable, information conflicts or an action fails. Keep a trace of the workflow for review.

A few practical questions.

How is an agent different from an assistant?

An assistant centers on helping someone through a conversation. An agent can carry a defined objective through several steps and selected tool actions; the two can work together.

Can an agent operate without reviewing every step?

The review policy is configurable. Decide which routine steps may proceed and which outputs or changes require a person, based on the task and its consequences.

Which tools can it use?

Tools are selected for the use case. Available interfaces, access permissions and the exact actions needed are confirmed during implementation.

Choose a task with a clear finish.

Bring the objective and the tools involved. We’ll show how an agent can prepare the result while keeping the boundaries visible.
