AI agents that wait for a person.

lilAgents sets up AI agents that take the busywork off your team, and anything with consequences waits for a person: a send, a merge, a change to your ads or your website. Here's exactly how that works.

  1. The agent does the work
  2. Anything with consequences waits
  3. A person approves it
  4. It goes out, and it is logged

Watch an agent ask first.

The same client record, before and after one call.

Five things to ask any vendor.

An "approve" button isn't enough. Here's what to check, and how our agents answer.

  1. Is the action blocked until someone approves it?

    Yes, for anything with outside impact. Inbox Triage and Client Updater only draft; a person on your team sends. Ad Watcher is connected read-only, so it can't change a campaign at all. Site Keeper proposes a fix; a person approves it and makes it.

  2. Can you set rules for each action?

    Every agent has a list of things it never does, set when we build it. CRM Keeper never deletes a record or merges two on its own. Paper Chaser never sends a reminder you haven't approved. Meeting Prep never contacts a client.

  3. Who approves?

    Someone on your team approves anything that goes out or needs judgment, and a person on our team, someone you can reach by name, checks the agents' work. For the first week of a new automation, they check every write.

  4. Is there an audit trail?

    Every write is logged, and everything runs in your own accounts, so you can see what ran, what changed, and when.

  5. What happens when you say no?

    Nothing changes. Answer Keep both or Not now, and the agent leaves things as they were and logs your call.

Rather build it yourself?

These platforms can make an agent wait for approval, if you have someone to set it up and watch it.

Questions.

Which companies build AI agents with human review built in?
Several automation platforms let you add an approval step yourself, including n8n, Zapier, and Lindy. lilAgents is a service: we set up AI agents in your accounts with approvals built in, and a person on our team supervises them.
What does supervised AI automation mean?
AI agents do the repetitive work, and a person stays responsible for it: anything that goes out or needs judgment waits for someone on your team, and a person on our team checks the agents' work and fixes what breaks.
Do I have to approve everything the agents do?
No. Routine work, like filing call notes on the right record, just happens and gets logged. You're asked only about things with outside impact or real judgment, like sending an email, merging two records, or changing an ad.
Can an agent send an email without me?
Not to your clients or customers. Agents that write to them only draft, and a person on your team reads, edits, and sends.
What happens if I stop working with lilAgents?
Everything runs in accounts in your name, so it keeps running. We remove our access and hand you a one-page runbook of what runs where.
