Running a startup means wearing every hat—often at once. But what if you could hand off repetitive tasks to AI and reclaim your focus for the work that really matters? In this hands-on session, we'll demystify agentic workflows and show you how to use tools like MCP to automate parts of your business. You'll get behind-the-scenes looks at real systems in action—from how HeyVail manages calls to how CrowdTamers and Insight use AI-driven agents to run marketing.
