A DeskFerry agent connects to the systems your Finance & Accounting stack already runs on, watches for Customer Onboarding triggers, and executes the next step automatically — drafting, routing, updating records, and following up without manual handoffs. Guide new customers through setup and activation automatically, significantly reducing time-to-first-value. Teams typically see days → Hours from signup to first win once the agent is in production. Setup is no-code, the agent operates inside the rules you define for your Finance & Accounting team, and every decision is logged so leadership can review what was automated and what was escalated.
How you tell it what to do
Built in plain English.
You write the rule the way you'd describe it to a teammate. The agent reads the rule, breaks it into the actions it'll take, and confirms the apps it'll touch — before it does anything.

Personalized using LinkedIn activity from the last 30 days.
Human in the loop
Approve before it sends.
Every draft lands in a review queue. You approve, edit, or reject — the agent never acts on its own unless you explicitly turn that on for a workflow you trust.
