AI (Artificial Intelligence) agents are seen as the next frontier in maximizing productivity in businesses. These AI tools can automate tasks, streamline workflows, and improve efficiency, rather than posing a threat to human jobs. They operate in three stages: perceiving their environment through models like natural language processing or image recognition, applying algorithms to reason and make decisions, and continuously learning and refining their decision-making abilities and performance. Jotform has integrated these AI agents into its internal workflows, resulting in faster task completion, fewer errors and increased employee engagement.
One way AI agents can be useful is in content creation. They can help generate high-quality content quickly, such as drafting newsletters, blog posts or website text, saving time on writing and editing. For instance, Claude, an AI developed by Anthropic, can create websites and documents that sound human, saving hours or even days of work.
AI agents can also be useful in conducting meetings, undertaking tasks like preparing agendas, note-taking, drafting summaries with action items, and scheduling follow-ups. AI tools like Grain, a sales platform with an AI agent, can assist in these tasks. Overall, AI agents can help businesses become more efficient and productive.
