AI Agents Enter Era of Automation: 'Trigger Function' Added to AI Worker Platform

AI Shift Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yuto Yoneyama) has added a 'Trigger Function' to its AI Agent construction platform, 'AI Worker Platform'. This function allows AI agents, previously manually activated, to operate automatically at specified times and under defined conditions, leading to further efficiency in daily operations and information collection. The development was driven by the challenge that AI agents required manual invocation, hindering true collaboration. Many companies expressed needs such as 'wanting to acquire information at a fixed time daily' and 'automating periodic report creation'. The Trigger Function automatically launches AI agents based on pre-set schedules, automating tasks like collecting and summarizing news daily at 9 AM, notifying incomplete tasks at 6 PM daily, or summarizing sales activities at the end of the day. AI Shift aims to evolve AI from a 'tool' to a 'collaborative partner', enhancing productivity through human-AI cooperation. This function transforms AI agents into 'proactive entities' that operate autonomously according to schedules. Future plans include promoting more advanced automation through external system integration and coordinated execution of multiple agents, realizing overall business process efficiency. The AI Worker series, including AI Worker Platform, will continue to support the establishment of AI utilization in corporate operations.
