Frequently asked questions
What is a general purpose AI assistant?
It is an agent that covers many everyday tasks instead of one specialty. Teams often start with a general assistant and add specialized agents as needs become clearer.
Should I choose a general assistant or a specialist?
General assistants are flexible but shallower on any single task. If most of your work is one job, a category specialist usually scores higher with reviewers.
