3.2 AI Employees

The Platform includes or may include access to AI Employees: named, purpose-built AI agents (such as Paige, Stella, Jasper, Maeve, and others in the Octopus Creative AI Employee roster) that can be configured to perform defined business functions including communications, scheduling, client management, and workflow automation.

AI Employees operate based on the configuration and data you provide.
