Your Agents Have Calendars, Just Like Your Staff

In the traditional workplace, employees have calendars, schedules, and shifts. Your AI agents are no different—except they work 24/7 without breaks, never call in sick, and execute with perfect consistency. The Agent Calendar system transforms chaotic automation into organized, predictable, scalable operations.
The Paradigm Shift: Stop thinking of automations as one-off scripts. Start thinking of them as scheduled work performed by digital employees who need proper time management.
