Our mission is to make every company instantly AI native.

We are building the integrated AI platform behind the most advanced integrated coworker.

We believe AI should make people’s lives better at work.

Adapt gives every company one AI it owns. Your @company agent is the integrated coworker that powers work across the company. It connects to every system, uses the best intelligence, and has its own computer to do the work. It is one front door that routes work to the right skills, tools, and subagents to get the job done.

Adapt was founded by Sean Smith, John Andrew Entwistle, and Jim Benton. Sean brings neuroscience and deep database systems expertise. John Andrew co-founded Coder.com and built Wander, the leading luxury travel marketplace. Jim co-founded ClearSlide, led Apollo.io, and ran Chorus.ai through its $575 million acquisition by ZoomInfo.

More than 6 million messages have been sent through Adapt. At Wander, every team now runs on Adapt.

Our team builds Adapt together in the Presidio in San Francisco, five days a week. Headline, Activant, and 40+ operators and angels back us.

Come build with us.

How we think and work

Customer trust

We are inside our customers’ most sensitive systems. That access is earned every day, in how we handle their data, how we scope what Adapt can touch, and how plainly we tell them what it did.

Expect excellence and lead by example

We hold a high bar and we hold it first for ourselves. Nobody here asks for work they would not do, or ships quality they would not accept from someone else.

Integrate 70%, innovate 30%

Most of the hard work is meeting companies where they already are, across the systems they already run. We spend the rest inventing the parts that do not exist yet.

Agency

If it matters, you own it until it is done and verified. We build a product that acts on its own initiative, and we hire people who do the same.

Best intelligence

The frontier moves every few weeks. We stay model-agnostic and route to whatever is genuinely best right now, so our customers get the ceiling instead of whatever we bet on last year.
