What is Solo?
Solo is the agentic platform for business — a consumer/business-ready system where AI agents work autonomously from day one. Unlike developer frameworks that require coding, Solo provides ready-to-use agents that manage your inbox, schedule, and workflows without any technical setup.
Platform Category
Solo belongs to the category of Consumer/Business Agentic Platforms:
| Category | Examples | Requires Coding | For Whom |
|---|---|---|---|
| Consumer/Business Agentic Platforms | Solo | No | Business users, solopreneurs, SMBs |
| Developer Frameworks | LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI | Yes | Developers building agent systems |
| Workflow Automation Tools | n8n, Zapier | No | Users automating if-then tasks |
| OS Integrations | Windows Copilot, Apple Intelligence | No | Consumers using desktop assistants |
Solo's unique position: An end-user platform where AI agents work autonomously out-of-the-box. Solo provides intelligent agents that understand context and make decisions — not just workflow automation following rules.
The Problem Solo Solves
Most businesses and individuals are drowning in:
- Too many tools that don't talk to each other
- Too much communication across email, Slack, SMS, and more
- Too little time to focus on what matters
- Too much chaos from dropped balls and missed deadlines
Solo solves this by turning roles into reliable digital staff, workflows into living blueprints, and communication into a structured system of understanding and response.

How Solo Works
A New Kind of Email
Solo introduces a fundamentally different approach to business communication. When you sign up for Solo, you claim a handle — your unique @solomail.io address. This isn't just another email provider; it's email reimagined for the age of AI agents.
No existing email required. You don't need to connect Gmail, Outlook, or any other email provider to get started. Your Solo handle works immediately:
- Claim your handle (e.g.,
yourname@solomail.io) - Your AI agents are available instantly on that handle
- Each agent gets their own email address (e.g.,
yourname+inbox-manager@solomail.io) - Anyone can email your agents directly — and they respond autonomously
This is email where AI agents are first-class citizens. Your agents can send and receive email, manage conversations, and collaborate with each other — all through their own addresses under your handle.
Optional integration: If you want, you can also connect existing email accounts (Gmail, Outlook, etc.) to have your agents monitor and respond on those addresses too. But it's entirely optional — Solo works standalone.
1. Your Solo Identity
Every Solo user has a Solo Identity — a unique handle like yourname@solomail.io. This is your home in Solo where:
- Your agents live and work, each with their own email address
- Your communications flow through a unified inbox
- Your workflows run automatically in response to incoming messages
- Your team collaborates through shared access
Think of your Solo Identity as your AI-powered business address. When someone emails your handle, your agents receive and process the message — triaging, responding, or escalating as needed. You can have multiple identities for different businesses or purposes.
2. AI Agents
Agents are AI-powered teammates that:
- Understand context (emails, tasks, conversations)
- Communicate via their own
@solomail.ioemail addresses - Collaborate with other agents in your identity
- Defer to humans when needed (Human-in-the-Loop)
- Perform real work: schedule meetings, send replies, manage customers
Each agent has its own email address. For example, if your handle is acme@solomail.io:
- Your Inbox Manager might be
acme+inbox@solomail.io - Your Sales Coordinator might be
acme+sales@solomail.io - Your Support Agent might be
acme+support@solomail.io
External contacts can email specific agents directly, or email your main handle and let your agents route the message appropriately.
Built-in Agent Types
| Agent | Role |
|---|---|
| Inbox Manager | Triages, categorizes, and responds to incoming emails |
| Chief of Staff | Coordinates across agents and handles escalations |
| Sales Coordinator | Manages leads, outreach, and prospect nurturing |
| Research Analyst | Gathers and synthesizes information |
| Marketing Coordinator | Handles marketing communications and campaigns |
| Custom Agents | Create specialized agents for any role |
3. Human-in-the-Loop (HITL)
Solo's Human-in-the-Loop system ensures you remain in control:
- Agents request approval for critical actions before executing
- You define what requires approval vs. autonomous action
- Every decision is logged and traceable
- Maintain brand safety while automating operations
4. Workflows & Automation
Solo workflows automate your business processes:
- Default Workflows: Built-in automation that works out of the box
- Custom Workflows: Connect your own workflow tool (such as n8n) for advanced automation
- Event-Driven: Responds to emails, tasks, and conversations automatically
5. Blueprints
Blueprints are pre-built systems representing entire businesses or functions:
- Install a blueprint to get a complete team of agents
- Customize agents to match your needs
- Share blueprints with others
- Build your own blueprints

Solo vs. Other Approaches
Why not use a developer framework?
Developer frameworks like LangGraph, AutoGen, and CrewAI are powerful tools for building custom agent systems — but they require coding. Solo provides the same intelligent agent capabilities in a ready-to-use platform. If you're a developer, you can still extend Solo with custom workflows, but you don't have to code to get started.
Why not just use workflow automation?
Workflow tools like Zapier automate if-then tasks, but they don't have intelligent agents. Solo agents understand context, make decisions, and adapt to situations — they don't just follow pre-defined rules.
Why not use built-in OS assistants?
OS assistants like Windows Copilot and Apple Intelligence are helpful for personal tasks, but they're not designed for business operations. Solo provides a complete business operating system with dedicated agents, team collaboration, and enterprise features.
Solo's Philosophy
"Don't die of business."
Solo believes every person and company has a rhythm. Solo aligns human instinct with machine precision to bring it to life.
"Work that runs itself."
Solo isn't another tool. It's the end of tools. It's the layer that understands context, orchestrates agents, and ensures everything — from your inbox to your business model — runs as one.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to connect an existing email account?
No. Solo is a new kind of email — you get a @solomail.io handle that works immediately. Your AI agents are available on your handle from day one, each with their own email address. You can optionally connect Gmail, Outlook, or other accounts if you want agents to monitor those too, but it's not required.
Does Solo require coding or technical knowledge?
No. Solo is a no-code agentic platform designed for business users. Agents work out of the box with no programming required. Advanced users can optionally connect custom n8n workflows.
How quickly can I get started?
Immediately. Sign up, claim your Solo Identity (e.g., yourname@solomail.io), and your agents are ready to receive and respond to emails within minutes.
How do agents get their own email addresses?
Each agent in your Solo Identity automatically gets a unique email address using plus addressing. If your handle is acme@solomail.io, your Inbox Manager is acme+inbox@solomail.io. Anyone can email your agents directly.
Is my data secure?
Yes. Solo uses enterprise-grade security. You own your data, and Enterprise customers can deploy on-premise for complete control.
Can Solo integrate with my existing tools?
Yes. Solo optionally integrates with email providers (Gmail, Outlook), calendars (Google Calendar, Outlook), and provides a REST API for custom integrations. But remember — Solo works standalone with just your @solomail.io handle.
