Flexible workers, teams and schedules

Hire flexible workers with a name, a role and a goal, run them together in a team, keep their schedules and listeners working, and start from a Marketplace worker template.

Choose New worker, then No, use its judgement, and you hire a flexible worker the way you would brief a new starter, with a name, a role and a goal that includes the deliverable and the finish line. Its row in the sidebar shows where it stands, with anything waiting on you under Needs you, and you steer a running session by saying the change instead of starting over.

When it runs wakes a flexible worker on a schedule, and listeners wake it when a connected service changes or a webhook arrives. A team lets you direct several workers in one room with @Name or @everyone. Marketplace worker templates import as your own copy, and the role guides show a four-worker team for legal, finance, HR, sales and other work.
