What people build with Jido

From single-purpose assistants to teams of agents that coordinate autonomously.

Coding agents

Agents that read, analyze, and refactor code across repositories.

Research and synthesis

Multi-step research agents that find sources, verify facts, and produce reports.

Document processing

Extract, classify, and route documents: invoices, contracts, support tickets.

Customer support

Agents that resolve issues using your knowledge base and escalate when needed.

DevOps and monitoring

Agents that watch systems, diagnose problems, and run remediation playbooks.

Data pipelines

Agents that collect, transform, and load data from multiple sources on schedule.

Quick start

Define an agent, start it supervised, ask it questions.
