We believe every company will have a central company agent. A powerful, universal AI harness that works across the systems, tools, data, and people that make up the business. One place to ask, build, analyze, automate, and act across the company’s internal operations.\nToday, people connect the dots between disconnected tools. We’re building the infrastructure that lets the company agent do that work through persistent memory, secure compute, deep integrations, reusable skills, and enterprise controls.\nAdapt was founded by Jim Benton, Sean Smith, and John Andrew Entwistle, repeat founders and operators who have built and scaled successful technology companies.
