Agents on Pupau: Introduction and Core Concepts

Welcome to the Agents section of the Pupau documentation! Here, you'll find a general overview of agents in Pupau, their potential, and the key principles that make them flexible and powerful. Whether you're new to Pupau or looking to unlock more advanced automation, understanding agents is the first step to maximizing your productivity on the platform.

What Are Agents in Pupau?​

Agents in Pupau are smart, customizable digital assistants designed to automate workflows, interact with the web, manage documents, or orchestrate multi-step processes using integrated tools. Think of each agent as a software operator capable of independently managing sequences of tasks—simple or complex—according to your instructions and goals.

The core idea behind Pupau’s agents is composability. You configure each agent by assigning it capabilities (the so-called tools), behavioral instructions (the system prompt), and operational rules. This allows agents to work seamlessly within workflows tailored to actual needs, from basic web research to more complex business processes.

Why Use a Pupau Agent?​

The real strength of Pupau’s agents lies in their ease of setup and extreme flexibility. You can create an agent in just a few clicks—naming, describing, and enabling the capabilities you need. Then, enhance it with tools for web search, navigation, document handling, task management, multi-agent collaboration, and a lot more.

Pupau provides a growing library of Native Tools (deeply integrated into the platform) and also the freedom to connect APIs and external systems. With the system prompt, you can further adapt the workflow and personality of your agent to best fit your scenario or client.

What Can an Agent Do?​

The range of use cases for agents in Pupau is vast. Some of the most common include:

  • Researching and gathering information from the web.
  • Analyzing documents or generating in-depth reports.
  • Creating plans, itineraries, comparisons, or logic flows.
  • Supporting administrative, organizational, or customer-care activities.
  • Orchestrating even complex business processes with the help of to-do lists and automation.
