You've built an AI agent. Now what?

Creating an agent is one thing. Running it 24/7, connected to your data, taking real actions β€” that's hosting. And most platforms make this surprisingly hard.

Taskade Genesis is an agent hosting platform that deploys your AI agents as always-on systems with memory, reasoning, and action capabilities.

πŸ€– Agent Hosting = Infrastructure for AI

Web hosting runs your website 24/7.
Agent hosting runs your AI agent 24/7.

The difference? Agents don't just serve pages β€” they think, remember, and act.

Here's what agent hosting actually means β€” and why it matters.

What Is Agent Hosting?

Agent hosting is infrastructure for running AI agents continuously.

Think of it like web hosting, but for AI. Web hosting runs your website 24/7 so anyone can visit. Agent hosting runs your AI agent 24/7 so it can:

  • Remember conversations and context
  • Reason through complex problems
  • Execute real actions in your systems
  • Learn from interactions over time

Without hosting, your agent is just a prompt. With hosting, it's a digital teammate.


What Makes an Agent Different from a Chatbot?

Most "AI assistants" are chatbots β€” they respond to messages but don't do anything.

Agents are different:

Chatbot Agent
Responds to messages Takes actions
No persistent memory Remembers context
Isolated conversations Connected to systems
Reactive only Proactive capabilities
Single turn Multi-step reasoning

Genesis agents are built on the Intelligence Pillar β€” they reason, decide, and execute.


How Genesis Hosts Agents

Every Genesis agent has three pillars working together:

🧠 Memory β€” Persistent Context

Your agent remembers everything relevant. Past conversations, user preferences, project context β€” it's all stored in Projects & Databases.

πŸ€– Intelligence β€” Reasoning & Decision

Your agent thinks through problems. It breaks down complex requests, considers options, and makes decisions based on context and goals.

⚑ Motion β€” Actions & Automation

Your agent takes action. Create tasks, send emails, trigger workflows, update data β€” all through Automations & Workflows.

This is Workspace DNA β€” the architecture that makes agents alive.

  • Runs embedded on any page

Why Traditional AI Tools Don't Work

Most AI tools fall into two categories:

1. Chatbot interfaces (ChatGPT, Claude)

  • Great for one-off conversations
  • No persistent deployment
  • No actions in your systems
  • No memory between sessions

2. Automation platforms (Zapier, Make)

  • Great for workflows
  • No reasoning capability
  • No conversational interface
  • No contextual decision-making

Agent hosting bridges the gap β€” AI that can reason AND act, deployed continuously.


What You Can Build With Agent Hosting

Agent Type What It Does Example
Customer Support Answer questions, create tickets Support dashboard
Research Assistant Gather info, summarize findings RSS feed agent
Project Manager Track tasks, send reminders Task dashboard
Sales Assistant Qualify leads, schedule calls CRM integration
Content Creator Draft content, suggest edits Publishing workflow

Every agent connects to your workspace through Workspace DNA.


Agent Automations

Hosted agents can trigger real workflows:

  • Slack alerts when agent detects issues
  • Email responses drafted automatically
  • Task creation based on conversations
  • Data updates from agent decisions
  • Escalation paths when agent needs human help
