What is
AI Agent?

An LLM-powered system that autonomously chooses tools and takes multi-step actions.

Definition

An agent is an LLM that can plan, choose from a toolbox of functions, execute calls, observe the results, and decide the next step. Agents are useful when a task requires more than one model call — looking up data, calling APIs, writing files, or coordinating sub-tasks. The risk is unbounded behavior; production agents need structured outputs, strict tool schemas, retry logic, and guardrails.

Example

A research agent that takes a topic, queries the web, summarizes 10 sources, and writes a structured report — making about 30 tool calls along the way.

How Vedwix uses AI Agent in client work

We rarely ship "open-ended" agents. Most of our production agents are constrained workflows with explicit tool sets and observability.

Building with AI Agent?

We ship this.

If you're building with AI Agent in production, we can help — from architecture review to full implementation.
