AI Agent
An autonomous LLM-based system that plans, takes actions via tools, and accomplishes multi-step goals.
An AI agent is an autonomous system built on a large language model that plans, takes actions via tools (APIs, code execution, web browsing, database queries), observes results, and iterates toward a goal. Agents differ from chatbots in scope: where a chatbot answers, an agent acts. Modern agent frameworks include LangChain, LangGraph, Anthropic's Computer Use, OpenAI Assistants, and Microsoft's AutoGen. Production agents require robust tool design, error recovery, observability, cost controls, and rigorous evaluation. Empire325 deploys production AI agents for sales operations, marketing automation, data engineering tasks, and customer support — typically reducing manual workflow time by 60-80%.
