Overview
Build a specialist that works your business around the clock: a support rep, a bookkeeper, or a follow-up assistant. In this video, build a custom AI agent that reasons over your projects, calls tools, and remembers past conversations.
TL;DR: Taskade AI agents combine a custom system prompt, 34 built-in tools, and persistent memory. Train one on your data, then embed it anywhere. Start with this short walk-through, then create an agent.
What you will learn
- How to define an agent's role, tone, and goals
- How to add tools so the agent can take action, not just chat
- How persistent memory keeps context across sessions
- How to share the agent with teammates or embed it on a public page
What an agent can do for you
Each capability maps to a real job your agent can run without you:
| Agent capability | What it does for your business |
|---|---|
| Custom tools | Book a job, update a CRM, or send an invoice |
| Persistent memory | Remembers a client's history across chats |
| Knowledge sources | Answers from your own docs and files |
| Slash commands | Runs a repeatable task on command |
| Public embedding | Puts a support agent on your website |
Quick setup
- Open Agents in your workspace.
- Click New agent and pick a frontier model.
- Write a system prompt that describes the agent's job.
- Attach knowledge sources, tools, and slash commands.
- Test the agent in chat, then publish or share.
Testing a reply that lands slightly off? Use Regenerate on the agent's latest reply to get a fresh take without retyping your message, then tune the prompt until it is right.
