These AI workers: • Communicate via email, WhatsApp, and chat — like any colleague • Have individual memory — they learn your business context over time • Are autonomous — they execute tasks, research, analyze data, and write reports • Integrate with tools you already use — Notion, Google Sheets, Gmail, Slack, GitHub, and more Real use cases: inbox & calendar management, customer support, financial analysis, sales operations, growth marketing, and property management. In this session, Gil Coelho (co-founder of Spinnable) will demonstrate live how it works and how early- stage businesses are multiplying their operational capacity without multiplying costs.
