AI Agents that act,
not just answer

Albato AI Agents work inside your automations. They pull data from previous steps and decide what happens next, across every app you've connected.

Set up your first AI Agent See how it works

Set up a working AI Agent in three steps

Pick a model

Connect the LLM that fits your task: OpenAI, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, or Albato's built-in AI if you want to skip the setup entirely.

One model per AI Agent. Switch anytime.

Write the instructions

Three fields shape the AI Agent's behavior: a user message, system instructions, and optional guardrails.

All fields support smart fields.pull in data from any previous step.

Add tools

Give the AI Agent real actions: create a contact in HubSpot, send a Slack alert, update a row in Google Sheets.

Each tool is an action from one of 1,000+ apps in Albato's library.

Why run AI Agents through Albato

You could connect to an LLM directly. Build your own agent. Call the API yourself.

Triggers that never sleep

Albato handles the infrastructure: webhooks, schedules, sessions. Nothing expires, nothing misfires. No babysitting, no cron jobs, no "the session timed out."

Your credentials stay yours

The AI Agent never sees your API keys or login credentials to third-party services. Albato holds the connections. The LLM gets instructions, not access. SOC 2 Type 2 certified, GDPR compliant.

You stay in control

Guardrails define what the AI Agent must not do. Agent Fields lock critical values (email addresses, billing amounts, deal stages) so the AI Agent only touches what you allow.

Try it. Set your own guardrails

Pick the AI Agent that fits your team

Pick a starting point, customize the instructions, and let it run.

Marketing

Route leads from Facebook Ads and Google Ads into your CRM. The AI Agent evaluates each lead based on your criteria and routes high-value contacts to your sales team in minutes, not hours.

Sales

When a new lead comes in, the AI Agent can find the contact in Apollo, create or update the deal in Salesforce or HubSpot based on your rules, and send reminders to reps based on deal stage.

Support

When a Zendesk or Intercom ticket arrives, the AI Agent triages it by urgency and can draft a first response based on your templates. VIP issues get escalated to the right person automatically.

Operations

Push data between your CRM, project tools, and spreadsheets automatically. The AI Agent flags mismatched records and can send structured summaries to Google Sheets for your weekly rollup.

Agencies & Freelancers

Build a lead routing AI Agent for one client. Clone it for the next ten. Use Albato's template sharing to reuse AI Agent-powered automations across accounts. Your clients activate them without rebuilding from scratch.

Or build your own AI Agent

Common questions

What exactly is an AI Agent in Albato?

It's a step in your automation that uses an LLM to make decisions. Where a regular step follows a fixed rule, the AI Agent reads context from previous steps and picks the right action based on your instructions. You control what it can do by choosing the model, writing instructions, and connecting specific tools.

Which AI models can I use?

OpenAI, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, and Albato's built-in AI. Connect your own API key, or use Albato AI with no extra setup.

How does the AI Agent get triggered?

An AI Agent works as an action step, not a trigger. Your automation starts with a webhook, a schedule, or an app event. The AI Agent picks up from there, using data from previous steps as its input.

Do I need coding skills?

No. You set up the AI Agent the same way you set up any other step in Albato: configure the fields, connect your apps. Instructions are plain text, not code.

What if the AI Agent makes a mistake?

Every action is visible in your automation log. You can review what the AI Agent did, adjust instructions, and tighten guardrails at any point. You also control exactly which fields the AI Agent can fill in. Critical fields stay locked.

How is this different from Zapier AI / Make AI?

Albato AI Agents run as a step inside your automation with field-level control over what the AI Agent can and can't touch. You pick the LLM, set guardrails, and decide which fields the AI Agent manages.

Is my data safe?

When you connect your own LLM (OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek), data is processed through your API key and your account. With Albato's built-in AI, data is processed through Albato's infrastructure.

Where can I see pricing?

Check the pricing page for current plans.

Add a thinking step to any workflow

An automation step that reads your data, follows your instructions, and acts across your connected apps. No code required.
