Agent to Agent
Agents work together and hand over tasks to each other.
What is Agent to Agent?
Agent to Agent lets one AI agent pass a task to another, specialised agent. This way you split a larger process into manageable steps that automatically follow each other. Each agent does what it's good at; together they deliver the end result.
How does it work?
- Set up an agent per step with a clear task.
- Determine the sequence: which agent passes the baton to which.
- Choose what is passed on: the data, the conclusion or the follow-up action.
- Set the chain live; the agents work together in the background from then on.
Use cases
Lead follow-up: one agent qualifies the lead, a second prepares the quote.
Customer service: one agent answers the question, another updates the file.
Content: one agent writes, a second checks for tone and errors.
Purchasing: one agent reviews the request, another prepares the order.
Benefits
- Complex tasks are broken down into manageable steps.
- Each agent is focused on its own specialism.
- Better quality because work is checked and supplemented.
- Scalable: you build entire processes from separate building blocks.
Frequently asked questions
Can I see what each agent has done?
Yes, you can follow what happened at each step and what each agent delivered. That way you keep an overview of the entire chain.
What if one agent gets stuck?
You can set the flow to stop and alert you if there's a problem, so nothing ever goes wrong silently.
How many agents can I link together?
You decide how long the chain is. Start small with two steps and expand as your process grows.
