First steps with AI Workers

Delos Workers are specialized autonomous AI agents that integrate directly into your enterprise workflows (Slack, Microsoft Teams, internal Ping messaging, email). Unlike a simple chatbot, a Worker has its own identity, persistent missions, domain skills, and connected tools.

1. What is a Worker?

Each Worker in your Delos organization comes with:

  • An identity & profile: a name, photo, specialized role (dev, marketing, HR, finance, operations), and an assigned manager.
  • Missions & directives: scheduled, recurring, or event-driven tasks (e.g. daily monitoring, code review, onboarding).
  • Persistent memory: retains team preferences, company context, and past decisions.
  • Integrations: secure access to your business tools (Slack, Google Workspace, GitHub, HubSpot, CRM).
  • Rules & safeguards: clear boundaries on autonomous actions versus tasks requiring human validation.

2. Getting started in 4 steps

  1. Hire & initialize: Select a profile from the catalog or create a custom Worker.
  2. Configure skills: Define key capabilities in Behavior Studio and autonomy rules.
  3. Connect channels: Integrate into Slack or Microsoft Teams for team collaboration.
  4. Assign initial missions: Start with a concrete deliverable by mentioning your Worker in chat.
