Why it matters
Small teams wear many hats. Agents that pick up research, admin and operations let a founder spend more time on the work only they can do. It is one of 90 sightings filed under Business & Startups on Agent Sightings (number 66 by interest), and one of 39 involving Microsoft Copilot.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Microsoft Copilot or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
I want an agent to take on this workflow, show its working, and wait for approval on anything that changes a system or contacts someone. The tool in the source case was Microsoft Copilot.
Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
