In the quest for business efficiency, we've automated emails, social media posts, and simple data entry. But what about the complex, multi-step processes that still consume your team's valuable time? Tasks like in-depth lead research, custom report generation, or resolving nuanced customer support tickets. This is where the next revolution in business automation is happening, powered by autonomous AI agents.
Imagine a "digital worker" on your team—one that understands your goals, plans its own tasks, executes them independently, and delivers the finished result. This isn't science fiction; this is the reality of agents like Ivy.
Meet Ivy from ivy.do, your autonomous AI agent designed to handle complex business workflows, so you can focus on strategy and growth. This guide will show you how this technology works and how you can practically implement it to put your business on autopilot.
An autonomous AI agent, or digital worker, is a significant leap beyond traditional automation. While tools like Zapier are great for simple "if this, then that" triggers, an agent operates on a higher level.
Think of it this way:
Ivy is designed to do just this. You can give it instructions in natural language, and it will independently manage the entire workflow to achieve your objective. It’s not just a tool; it’s a delegate.
The most powerful aspect of Ivy is its accessibility. You don't need a team of AI researchers to leverage its power. Ivy delivers its capabilities as a "Services-as-Software" model through a simple API and SDK. You simply tell Ivy what you want, and it handles the how.
Let's look at a practical, real-world example: automating lead qualification. Imagine a new lead signs up. Instead of a sales rep spending 30 minutes researching them, you can delegate the task to Ivy.
Here’s how simple the code is using the .do SDK:
import { ivy } from '@do/sdk';
// Delegate a lead qualification task to Ivy
async function qualifyNewLead() {
const result = await ivy.do('qualify-lead', {
prospect: {
name: 'Jane Doe',
company: 'Global Tech Inc.',
website: 'globaltech.com'
},
qualificationCriteria: [
'Company size must be over 1,000 employees.',
'Must be in the software industry.',
'Check for recent funding rounds.'
]
});
console.log('Qualification result:', result);
}
qualifyNewLead();
In this snippet, you aren't writing code to scrape a website, check LinkedIn, or search for funding news. You're simply defining the goal and the criteria. Ivy takes this request and autonomously performs all the necessary steps, returning a clean, structured result. This is the essence of an agentic workflow: you command, Ivy executes.
The potential applications for a digital worker like Ivy span across every department of a modern business. Anything that involves a digital process can be delegated.
By offloading these complex but repetitive tasks, you empower your human team to focus on what they do best: building relationships, closing deals, and driving innovation.
Ivy is an autonomous AI agent, or 'digital worker', on the .do platform. It's designed to execute complex business workflows, understand instructions in natural language, and operate independently to achieve your business goals.
You can interact with Ivy through our simple API or the .do SDK. Just define the task you want to delegate and the desired outcome. Ivy handles the entire workflow, from planning to execution, and returns the result as a service.
Yes. Ivy is built on a learning architecture. With each task, it improves its ability to plan, execute, and adapt to new challenges, becoming a more efficient and valuable part of your team over time.
The future of work isn't about replacing humans; it's about augmenting them. Autonomous AI agents like Ivy represent the ultimate assistant, capable of handling the digital grunt work with speed, accuracy, and intelligence. By integrating a digital worker into your operations, you can finally stop managing processes and start focusing on results.
