You can use Backdrop to build specialized virtual coworkers that handle operational tasks across your organization. You connect your company applications, provide instructions, and let these assistants conduct market research, draft marketing campaigns, track project milestones, and update dashboards. Backdrop maintains a shared memory across your team members and virtual agents, retaining context from past decisions and conversations. Team members can chat with coworkers directly in shared channels, assign multi-step workflows, surface operational bottlenecks, and update connected systems without manual data entry.
