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.

How to Build an AI-Assisted Customer Onboarding Workflow

Customer onboarding fails when it depends on memory, happens inconsistently, or buries the customer in unclear steps. An AI agent can help organize onboarding into a repeatable workflow that collects information, identifies blockers, prepares materials, and keeps the process visible.

Define what successful onboarding means

Write down the outcome. Does the customer need access, training, initial data loaded, or a kickoff call? Does onboarding end when they complete a task or when they reach active usage? Avoid vague goals such as customer success. Define the milestone.

Map the current handoff

Document every step from closed deal to active customer. Who collects information? Who grants access? Who sends the welcome? Who schedules the call? Where do delays occur? An agent can help enforce the process, but it cannot fix undefined ownership.

Use an agent for information gathering

An agent can send a structured questionnaire, parse responses, flag missing information, and prepare a summary. It can also compare responses with the original sales conversation to catch mismatches early. The output should be a complete onboarding profile.

Automate preparation tasks

Create accounts, assign licenses, generate credentials, prepare training documents, and schedule the kickoff. An agent can trigger these tasks and confirm completion. It should not guess configuration choices or skip required steps.

Add progress tracking

Give every onboarding case a visible state, owner, next action, and due date. Track time from close to active, percentage reaching activation, reasons for delay, and common questions. Make blockers visible so they can be addressed.

Keep communication clear

Send a welcome message that explains the sequence, expected timing, and who to contact. Follow up when a step stalls. Ask for feedback after activation. Measure whether customers understand the process and feel supported.

Conclusion

Good onboarding is consistent, clear, and complete. Actus can help connect information gathering, task preparation, progress tracking, and communication into one reliable workflow. Learn more at https://actusagent.cc.
