What Are Agents?

Agents are specialized AI employees within Velatir. Each agent has a clear job description and a set of skills tailored to a specific domain. Think of them as team members you hire for distinct responsibilities — one might focus on discovering AI usage, another on reviewing content, and so on.

How Agents Work

Agents are passive by default. They observe, collect data, and surface insights without taking action that could disrupt your workflows. When an agent identifies something that needs attention, it can:
  1. Report — Surface findings in your dashboard
  2. Alert — Notify you through configured channels (Slack, Teams, email)
  3. Escalate — Create review tasks for human decision-making
You stay in control. Agents never take autonomous action unless you explicitly configure escalation paths.

Key Principles

Observe First, Act Later

Agents are designed to build a complete picture before suggesting action. They collect data continuously and present it in a way that helps you make informed decisions.

Specialized by Design

Each agent focuses on one domain. This keeps their analysis sharp and their recommendations relevant. Rather than a single tool that tries to do everything, you get purpose-built agents that excel at their specific job.

Knowledge & Skills

Each agent acts on the knowledge it has gathered and the skills it has been assigned. You shape agent behavior by giving it the right knowledge and enabling the right skills.
