How to create and use agents

Open the builder, describe one job, try a real example, then publish. The agent stays cheap because it is built for that job—not a general chatbot you have to prompt forever.

How to create and use agents

How this is different

Most “agent” products are a chatbot with a long prompt, or a workflow tool that needs someone to wire every step. You pay for a general assistant that talks about the work, then you still do the work.

AshnaAI starts from the job. You say what the agent should do. The builder turns that into a focused agent and only attaches tools that already exist on the platform—mail, files, your site, accounts you can sign in to. It will not invent a connector you do not have.

That is why the agent stays cost-effective and accurate. One job means fewer wasted runs. The right tools mean answers come from your process, not a generic script. You publish when a real example works—not when a prompt looks clever.

Step 1: Open the builder

Go to https://app.ashna.ai/create/agent. New accounts start at app.ashna.ai/signup.

You should see “What do you want to build?” and a box that says “Explain what your agent should do...”

AshnaAI create agent page with What do you want to build and the describe box
The builder. Type the job here—support, reminders, study help, or your FAQs.

Step 2: Describe the agent you want

Write one job. Name who it is for, what they ask, and what a good result looks like. You can type or use the microphone.

  • Good: “Answer campus FAQs from our brochure and tell the student which form to open next.”
  • Good: “Qualify inbound leads from the website form and draft a follow-up.”
  • Bad: “Be my entire company.”

Step 3: Review the tools and try it

The builder proposes tools for that job. Keep only what you can sign in to. If a login is requested, finish it before you test.

Ask what a real customer would ask. If the agent misses something you already said, say it once and tighten the description. Do not add a second job yet.

Step 4: Publish

When the example looks right, click Publish. The agent lands in My Agents. From there you can chat with it, set a schedule, or put it on your website.
