Customer
“How do I add a second teammate to my account? Can't find the setting.”
Agent draft · in your tone
Hi Alex — go to Settings → Team → Invite. Drop in their email and pick a role; they'll get an invite instantly. I've linked the step-by-step guide too. Anything else?
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.

Prepared and waiting on your approval
Outside the agent's confidence — your call
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.
Every action, with the reasoning attached.
Each step the agent takes is logged with what it did, why it did it, and which app it touched. Audit-ready, so security and compliance can sign off without backfilling.
