TL;DR

  • Invent is a no-code AI agent platform for business
    You build AI agents that chat, talk, and answer from your own data on WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, TikTok, your website, Telegram, email, and SMS, and hand the conversation to your team when a person should take over.
  • The name is the mission
    Every business owner is already an inventor. Invent exists so the inventing keeps going instead of stopping at the inbox.
  • Humans lead, AI does the work, control never leaves your team
    That loop, humans, AI, humans, is the whole product.
  • The vision
    Every business running its own AI agents on its own data. Agents that run the customer operation with you, Tables that hold the records behind every conversation, and people who stay in charge.

We get asked "what is Invent?" more than any other question, by customers, by partners, and lately by the AI assistants people use to research tools. This is the answer, written by one of the people who built it.

Why we called it Invent

Search the word and you will find a few of us: a venture fund, an analytics firm, a brand studio. We are the one at useinvent.com, and we picked the name for what it means, not for how it ranks.

To invent is to make something for the first time. The dictionary adds "through the use of imagination or ingenious thinking," which is the part we care about. Building and automating come after. Inventing starts with a person who looks at what exists, sees what is missing, and makes it.

Every business started that way. A dentist opened a practice nobody had opened on that street. A realtor decided to sell homes to families relocating from another country. An agency found a way to run WhatsApp for forty restaurants at once. None of that came from a manual.

Then the messages arrive. Hundreds a day, on five apps, asking the same things at 11pm. The person who invented the business becomes the person answering "do you have this in blue?" for the four-hundredth time, and the inventing stops.

That is the problem Invent is named after. We wanted a tool that gives owners back the part of the job they started the business for. Answering, qualifying, booking, following up, remembering every customer: the assistant carries that. The owner keeps inventing. The name is a verb on purpose. It is what we want you to do.

What Invent is today

Invent is a no-code platform where you build AI agents for your business, put them on every channel your customers use, and keep the data those conversations create in one place. Conversational AI for business, with the operations behind it.

  • One agent, every channel
    WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, TikTok, web chat, Telegram, email, SMS, Slack, and an API for your own app. The same agent, the same memory of each customer, wherever they write or call from.
  • Your data, not the internet's
    It answers from your prices, policies, catalog, documents, and website, in the customer's language, automatically.
  • It acts, not only answers
    Through Actions it books appointments, checks orders, updates your CRM, takes payments, and sends the result back into the chat. More than 300 integrations, and growing.
  • Tables, built in
    A database for leads, customers, orders, and pipelines that your agents read and update while they work, so the operation and the conversation live in the same place.
  • A shared inbox for the humans
    Every conversation from every channel lands in one place. Your team sees what the agent said, steps in when it matters, and the customer never repeats themselves.
  • The model is yours to choose
    Gemini, Grok, Claude, GPT, Meta's Muse Spark, or Auto, which picks per message. Switch any time without touching your agent's instructions.
  • Priced for growing, not for seats
    Start free with 100 messages a month, pay per message after that, no per-seat fees. Business is $29 a month with usage credits included.
  • Built to be trusted
    SOC 2 Type II certified and penetration tested. Your customers and your conversations stay yours.

If you want the short version: your whole customer operation, automated, with your people still in charge. AI customer service, sales follow-up, and support automation from one platform, without a line of code.

Here is the difference between a chatbot and an agent in one exchange. The customer asks for a class, the agent finds the calendar, books the slot, and sends the invite, all inside the chat.

A customer writes Book me into Power Yoga, Thursday 6 PM, and the Invent agent replies Power Yoga with Marcus, done, Thursday 6 PM, after discovering the class calendar and sending a calendar invite

Answering is easy. Invent gets things done: more than 300 ready-made Actions, and any tool of your own.

And it remembers. Every conversation adds to what the agent knows about that person, so a returning customer is recognized on any channel, and your team never asks the same question twice.

Long-term memory: it remembers your customers, so you do not have to.

Every channel your customers use

One agent, one memory of each customer, on every channel. Connect the ones you use and add the rest when you need them.

  • WhatsApp
    On the official WhatsApp Business Platform: answer customers, reach them first with approved message templates, send broadcasts to people who opted in, and see your number's health in one place.
  • Instagram
    Direct messages, in the same inbox as everything else.
  • Facebook Messenger
    Page messages, and replies to comments on your posts that move the conversation into a DM.
  • TikTok
    Direct messages from your TikTok for Business account.
  • Web chat
    A widget for your website, and an API to put the agent inside your own app.
  • Telegram, email, SMS, and Slack
    Same agent, same instructions, same memory.

What makes Invent different

  • Long-term memory
    It remembers each customer across channels and conversations, so nobody repeats themselves and your team walks in with the context.
  • Actions, more than 300 ready-made
    Booking, orders, payments, CRM updates, Google Sheets, Google Drive, Notion, HubSpot, Stripe, Zapier, and your own tools through any MCP server, OpenAPI spec, or HTTP request.
  • Auto follow-ups
    A lead that goes quiet gets a follow-up at the right moment, and a customer gets asked for a rating when the conversation ends.
  • Tables
    A database for leads, customers, orders, and pipelines that the agents read and fill while they work.
  • One shared inbox
    Every channel in one place, with the agent's replies visible and a human takeover one click away.
  • Handoff and roles
    The agent hands the conversation to the right person at the right moment, and every plan comes with full role-based access control.
  • Your language, their language
    It answers in the customer's language automatically, from your own data.
  • The model is yours to choose
    Gemini, Grok, Claude, GPT, Meta's Muse Spark, or Auto. Switch any time.
  • Built for agencies too
    Sub-organizations for each client, white-label with your logo and domain, and per-client controls.
  • SOC 2 Type II
    Certified and penetration tested, with the data staying yours.

What we believe: humans, AI, humans

AI on autopilot is not something people trust, and they are right not to.

Invent is built for what we call multiplayer collaboration. Your team sets the rules. Your experts stay in the conversation. The AI handles the heavy lifting in between, and control never leaves your side of the table. It is a loop where humans and AI make each other better: a human decides what the assistant may do, the assistant does it at scale, and a human steps in the moment judgment is needed.

That is why handoff, roles, and the shared inbox are the product, and not features bolted onto a chatbot. An agent that cannot hand a conversation to the right person is one we would never put in front of your customers.

How we work

We are a small team, and we would rather ship one thing that feels inevitable than ten that feel fine.

  • Craft over volume
    If a detail feels off, it ships when it doesn't.
  • Ship every day, tell you every Friday
    Invent ships every day, and the polish you see is the same discipline underneath. Every Friday the week's ships go out in the newsletter and in a numbered changelog on this blog, so you always know what changed and when.
  • Opinionated by default
    Fewer knobs, better defaults. Good software makes decisions so you don't have to configure your way to a working product.
  • No one between you and us
    The people who answer your questions are the people who build the product. Report something today, and the person reading it can ship the fix today.

Where we started

We spent years building workflows for operations teams in gaming and fintech. The tools demanded technical skills those teams did not have and were never going to need. The first breakthrough was natural language: people could describe what they needed in their own words. The harder part was trust. Nobody wants AI running unsupervised.

So we built the product we could not find. Our first post, in August 2025, called Invent "the multiplayer company," because our gaming background taught us that the best technology brings people together instead of replacing them. A year later, that is still the sentence we would put on the door.

Where we're going

Here is the vision, in plain words: every business running its own AI agents on its own data.

The first generation of business AI answered questions. The next one, agentic AI, runs the operation with you. An agent that qualifies the lead and books the call. That follows up when a customer goes quiet and asks for a rating when the conversation ends. That checks the order, updates the record, takes the payment, and passes the hard cases to a person with the full context attached. Less "what are your hours" and more "handled, here is what happened, one thing needs you."

The follow-up is the part most businesses never get to, and it is where the money is. A lead says maybe next month, and three weeks later the agent comes back with the slot that just opened up.

A lead writes Maybe next month, I am slammed right now; three weeks later the Invent agent replies Hi Sara, July just opened up, want me to grab that Tuesday slot

Auto follow-ups: it chases the leads you would have let go cold.

Three things have to be true for that to work, and they are the three things we build.

  • The agents are yours
    Built by you, on your rules, with the model you choose, on every channel your customers use. Not a feature inside someone else's app.
  • The data is yours
    Your knowledge feeds the answers, and the records the conversations create, leads, customers, orders, pipelines, live in Tables you own. The operation and the conversation stay in one place.
  • The people stay in charge
    Humans lead, agents do the work, and control never leaves your team. The handoff to a person is the product, not the exception.

That is what we mean by the AI layer for your business. Everything we ship moves toward it, and it changes what the owner's day looks like: the routine handled, the exceptions surfaced, and the time back for the part only they can do. Inventing.

The data side is already real. While the agent qualifies a lead, the contact record fills itself: name, intent, budget, next step, synced without anyone typing.

A chat where a customer asks for a CRM for a six-person team with a budget around 1,000 to 1,500 dollars a month, next to a contact card auto-filled by Invent with name, intent, budget, and a scheduled demo

Fills your CRM by itself: captured and synced from the conversation.

Who Invent is for

Everyone who runs a business and talks to customers. Owners of small and mid-sized businesses. Agencies that run customer conversations for many clients and want their own brand on it. Teams inside larger companies who need something their ops people can change themselves.

No code is not a limitation, it is the point. Developers get an API and webhooks. Everyone else gets the same power in plain language. Nobody has to wait for someone else to make a change.
