Bringing AI agents into your work doesn’t have to be intimidating or involve a massive, complicated agentic workflow to be valuable. Sometimes the smallest agents are the most delightful and impactful, especially when they handle tedious, repetitive, or easily forgotten tasks. Here's a mix of useful, creative, and "why didn't I think of that?" kinds of agents for anyone working in Marketing, Sales, or Customer Service.
