An autonomous AI agent platform: you give an agent a goal in plain English and it plans, uses real tools, and delivers the finished work.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Actus has a free plan to get started, with paid plans that add higher limits and advanced features like scheduled automations and team workspaces.

Can agents run automatically on a schedule?

Yes — agents can run hourly, daily, or on a custom cadence, so routine work happens automatically without you starting it each time.

How is Actus different from a chatbot?

A chatbot replies with text. An Actus agent takes action: it uses real tools to research, write, build, and send, then returns a finished deliverable instead of just advice.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe your goal in plain English and the agent plans and executes the steps. Agents can write and run code when a task needs it, but you never have to.

Do I stay in control of what an agent does?

Yes. Irreversible actions require your approval, every run has budget and step limits, and each step is logged so you can see exactly what happened.

Actus Agent for Document Automation

Business documents are often assembled from information that already exists in notes, spreadsheets, inboxes, forms, and previous deliverables. The expensive part is not typing. It is collecting the right facts, choosing a structure, checking consistency, and delivering the correct file.

Documents Suited to Agentic Workflows

Useful examples include proposals, audit reports, meeting briefs, operating checklists, client updates, slide decks, spreadsheets, and recurring performance reports. These tasks have judgment and formatting requirements, which makes them a better fit for an AI agent than a rigid mail merge.

Start With Inputs and Acceptance Criteria

Define the approved sources, required sections, audience, file format, and review owner. A proposal might pull the prospect's stated goals, website findings, recommended scope, timeline assumptions, and next step. An audit report may require evidence for every issue and a priority ranking.

A Reliable Workflow

Collect source material.
Extract structured facts.
Resolve contradictions or mark unknowns.
Build an outline for the intended reader.
Draft in plain language.
Validate required sections and numbers.
Generate the requested file.
Save the artifact and route it for review.

Avoid Hallucinated Details

Agents should never invent results, customer quotes, dates, legal terms, or pricing. Use placeholders only when the reviewer expects them. If a source is missing, state what is unknown and keep it out of factual claims.

Why File Generation Matters

A long answer in chat is not the same as a deliverable. Teams need an editable Word document, a shareable PDF, a real presentation, or a spreadsheet with formulas. Actus Agent can create those formats as part of the workflow so the output is ready to use instead of waiting for manual copy and paste.

Recurring Reports

Scheduled agents are especially useful for reports that repeat. A weekly workflow can gather current records, calculate agreed metrics, explain changes, generate a document, and deliver it to the right review queue. Checkpoints prevent the next run from duplicating work.

Human Review

Keep approval for contracts, regulated material, financial commitments, or public claims. Automate preparation and validation first. That combination removes repetitive assembly without surrendering accountability.

Actus Agent connects research, structured reasoning, and real file generation in one process. Start with one document your team creates repeatedly and turn its unwritten steps into a dependable workflow at actusagent.cc.
