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.
