Agently Reviews

I've tried a lot of AI tools, and most of them forget everything the moment I close the chat. Agently is different. I connected Slack, Outlook, Hubspot, and our website, and within a day Jarvis knew our clients, our projects and who's who.
Every morning I start on one list of what actually needs me, with the noise filtered out. I hand most of my client follows ups and reminders to Jarvis, and nothing goes out until I approve it. That's what made me comfortable trusting it with real work.
It's still early and there are a few rough edges, but the team fixes things fast. If you want an AI that does the work instead of just chatting, Agently is worth it.

A thoughtful approach to AI for business

What stands out to me about Agently is the focus on understanding a business, including its customers, deals, conversations, and how everything connects. That’s the direction I want to see business AI take.

I work in commercial real estate and AI, so having that context matters to me. I see potential for researching opportunities, preparing for meetings, and keeping track of follow-ups.

I also appreciate the founder’s direct answers to my questions. He explained the vision, addressed the upcoming Mac app, and was honest about not promising a release date before it’s ready.

The emphasis on human review for outgoing actions is another reason I’m interested. I’m excited to see how Agently develops and how it can fit into our workflows.

I was debating the 5-llama rating on this, truth be told. Five stars, for me, would normally be a fully finished and ready-to-go product. This isn't quite there yet; it works, the bones are there, they just need to be fully fleshed out first.

The thing is, and what made me keep the 5-burrito rating on it, is the pure ambition and complexity of what they're working on here.

If you're looking at this, I'm assuming you've used agents to do parts of things in your work life. You've probably got one running in the background right now (Claude, how's that plugin going anyways?). What's missing, though, is the brain that's holding all the bits and pieces together.

I know, ideally, I'm supposed to be that brain in my world. The problem is, between the 'tism, the ADHD, and the wildness of my 20s, the brain doesn't do so hot when it comes to retaining context. Heck, I'm not even good at sharing context -- my totally disjointed stories are proof of that (just ask my wife).

So what do we do when the flesh-brain doesn't work too well?

Up til now, I've segmented off parts of it to hand off to robot brains. They used to be very bad robot brains, because robot brains couldn't point out things like "maybe the toaster isn't a good bath bomb," but now they're smart enough to be like "maybe something in a soothing lavender instead?"

Where was I going with this

Oh right, anyways, Agently is setting out to be that robot brain in the centre of things -- the one that knows what's going on so your fleshy brain doesn't need to. The one you can turn to and be like "Hey Jarvis, I hit my head and don't remember who I am, what do I need to do next?" and it'll list off the five top emails you need to reply to, what meetings you have, and your local hospital's average emergency wait time so you can hopefully get that concussion checked before those meetings.

So, for overall product *readiness*? 3/5 guacamoles.
But, for project ambition and *where it's going*? 7/5 puppies wearing sombreros.

Overall score: 5/5 freshly baked apple pies.

So just because there are no reviews yet I wanted to get this one in .. but plan to change it over the next week one way or the other. Thus far this is exactly the app I need and have been trying to build via open source with way too much time built into it. This gives me what I need as my COS that can do stuff for me. It is intuitive and I believe easy to use ... BUT ... as any new business there are some bugs. The application developer appears to be on top of these things pretty rapidly. He has an AI chat that tries to help and automatically creates a bug ticket if needed. The application developer responds back with the resolution quickly. If this continues to improve as I hope it does it will easily be my favorite app here on Appsumo ever (yes I've purchased way too many at like 500 or so over the many years)
