What this session covers

The team you cannot hire, hired. Standing agents do analyst work on your estate continuously, watching vendors, refreshing benchmarks, drafting briefs, and never take an action that matters without you. The boundary is the feature: analyst, not deputy.

Live on the sample workspace: the agent roster, watchdogs, autopilots, and analysts, each with its coverage stated like a job description. A market monitor gets hired on the top vendors in about a minute. A workflow runs end to end and leaves behind the thing that makes automation trustworthy, a written memo with the evidence linked, on a run history you can audit.

Ask Vera sits over all of it as the front desk, and the guardrails section covers budgets, approvals, and the audit trail, why this can run on a real company's real estate. The series closes where it started: your judgment on the decisions, everything else handed to you.
