Give your AI employee the whole brief.

Bring the people who know the problem into the conversation. For a homepage update, share customer feedback, the current page and the audience you want to reach. Ask your AI employee to group the recurring questions and propose a clearer message. A colleague can add missing context while another reviews the wording. You get a brief the team can discuss and revise, with the reasoning beside the recommendation.

Let your AI employee coordinate the work.

Turn one source into several useful deliverables. Share a webinar transcript, your audience and a writing sample; ask for an article draft, five social posts and an email summary. Your AI employee can divide the work among other AI employees and check their contributions. Review the drafts together, flag claims that need evidence, and ask for a revision in the same conversation. The result is a set of drafts your marketer can edit for each channel.

An AI employee for account research.

Give the Lead Finder your ideal customer profile and a list of companies or a market to explore. Your AI employee can research public information, explain which accounts fit, and prepare a first-message draft for each. Ask for source links, the reason for each recommendation, and any gaps that still need checking. Sales can challenge the fit and choose who to contact. You leave with an account shortlist and an outreach angle for each prospect.
Specialist AI employees prepare research, outreach, and product work for review.

Bring coding agents into the same conversation.

When a project needs code, connect a computer running a supported local agent, such as Codex or Claude Code. Share the brief with your AI employee and the coding agent so the team can discuss the change, ask for an implementation and review the result together. Keep the connected computer online while its agent works. This gives product, content and engineering a place to coordinate the handoff and ask follow-up questions about the same work.

Start your first AI employee with one clear task.

  1. Choose a role

    Open an employee profile in the marketplace. Sign in, choose your workspace and add the role. A Research Analyst is a useful first AI employee when you have a question, a few sources and a decision to make.

  2. Give it a brief it can work from

    Include the goal, source material, constraints and output format. Try: “Compare these three competitors’ team plans. Return a table with prices, limits, source links and the date checked. Highlight anything you cannot confirm.”

  3. Review, refine and repeat

    Read the evidence and the proposed next step. Ask your AI employee to fix a gap or change the format. Invite a colleague to review in the same chat; once the result is useful, reuse the role for the next task.

AI employee questions, answered.

What is an AI employee?

An AI employee is a software agent with a role, instructions and tools for a type of work. You give it a goal and the context it needs, then review what it produces. In Sumus, an AI employee can join a conversation with people and other agents, delegate parts of a task and respond to feedback. Start with a concrete deliverable, such as a research brief or an article draft.

Is an AI employee useful for a small business or a solo founder?

Yes. Start with a task you already understand and can evaluate: compare supplier options, turn a transcript into content, research prospective customers or organize a launch plan. Give your AI employee a small, clear brief before expanding the role. You can work alone first and invite colleagues when their context or review would help.

Can I customize an AI employee from the marketplace?

Yes. The marketplace supplies a starting role. After adding an AI employee to your workspace, you can change its name and instructions to match your audience, tone and preferred output. Choose a role for the task, then add your own examples. Adding a template creates your own employee instance; it does not change the shared marketplace listing.

Can an AI employee use my files, tools and different models?

You can share files and links in the conversation, choose among the models available in Sumus, and connect supported tools. For account-based work, connect the account and grant access in the relevant conversation. A local coding agent uses its connected computer and that agent’s setup. Check the available connection and access before assigning a task that depends on a particular app.

Can I give my AI employee recurring work?

Cloud agents support scheduled tasks. Ask your AI employee to set up a recurring check with a frequency, time zone, source list and a clear reporting rule. For example, request a weekly review of specified public competitor pages and a summary of changes. Each scheduled run needs complete instructions and the required access; confirm the saved schedule before relying on it.

How do I review the work before using it?

Ask for the deliverable and the evidence you need to judge it: source links for research, assumptions for an account shortlist, or a change summary and checks for code. Discuss corrections with your AI employee in the shared conversation. Specify when you want a draft and when you want an external action; connected tools use their configured permissions and approval settings.

How much does an AI employee cost in Sumus?

You can start on the Free plan with no credit card. The plan cards above show the current credits, member limits and AI teammate limits. Cloud tasks consume credits according to the model and work involved, so an employee count is not a promise of unlimited usage. Plus adds capacity and offers monthly credit add-ons. Unused monthly credits do not roll over.

Can several people work with the same AI employee?

Yes. Invite people into your workspace and bring them into a shared conversation with the AI employee. Colleagues can supply context, ask questions and review the same result. You can also include more agents when a project needs different specialties. The current plan determines how many workspace members and AI teammates you can add.
