Marley is absolutely right: the vast majority of SMBs, agencies, and nonprofits want to leverage AI to drive efficiencies, recruit donors and volunteers, and onboard new customers, but don't know how to get started.

What’s great about MJV is that they’re making AI both approachable and actionable for small and mid-sized organizations ready to take that step. Now is the time! There are undoubtedly processes within your organization that could be more efficient, and AI can help streamline them. It’s easier than you think. Reach out today to get started.

I've seen many people struggle to categorize different types of agents used when building agentic systems. To simplify, here are three common types of agents we often employ at MJ Ventures: 1. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐎𝐄𝐑 This agent focuses on generating outputs directly related to the desired outcome. Their key characteristics include: - Assigned tasks in different formats - Ability to complete diverse tasks Common Tasks: - Research - Analysis - Content Creation 2. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑 This agent coordinates interactions between other agents and tools. Often known as a "Router," they are vital in managing task flow. - Retrieves tasks - Assigns tasks to the relevant agent Common Tasks: - Task Identification - Task Triage - Task Delegation 3. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐀𝐆𝐄𝐑 This agent critiques outputs from other agents to ensure everything aligns with our values and quality standards. - Provides feedback - Ensures strategic alignment Common Tasks: - Risk Management - Output Review - Quality Control - Strategic Alignment Understanding these roles can significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of agentic systems we build. Let's innovate together.
