AI with an operator's eye
We start with the work that slows people down: decisions waiting on data, handoffs between tools, repetitive communication, and admin loops that should have disappeared already.
About Agents of Work
Agents of Work helps teams turn artificial intelligence into real business leverage: clearer decisions, faster workflows, better customer experiences, and hours returned to the people doing the work.
We build on Agents of Play's experience and expertise in design, technology, and enterprise delivery, now focused on AI-centric strategy, systems, and implementation for modern businesses. For the past 15+ years, AOP has delivered emerging technology solutions and now SOTA AI solutions for some of the biggest brands in the world. We're using this experience to provide small businesses and professionals with information and services to bring you into the AI work age.

A strategic and collaborative partner
When you are ready to use technology to drive results, you need more than a list of tools. We work with partners to find the right mix of AI, automation, design, content, data, and business strategy.
We start with the work that slows people down: decisions waiting on data, handoffs between tools, repetitive communication, and admin loops that should have disappeared already.
The goal is not to bolt AI onto everything. The goal is to reclaim time, improve quality, and create AI native systems and workflows your team can trust.
We match the right model, automation layer, integration, or human-in-the-loop process to the business. Sometimes that means a quick workflow. Sometimes it means custom software.

Meet the Founders
Agents of Work was founded by four friends — Lou Parmelee, Mike Van, Chris Tanner, and Rory Mather — who have worked together for 15+ years and entrepreneurs who have 20+ years of experience building enterprise platforms, AI tools, and consumer products at the scale of hundreds of millions of users. We've shipped for KPMG, Gartner, ESPN, Niantic, L3Harris, AT&T, and EA — and now we apply that same playbook to small businesses ready to operate like the biggest companies in the world.

Founders who've each founded their own company
Everyone on the team has founded their own company. That's the lens we bring to yours — operator-first, with the infrastructure background to ship AI that actually runs in production.
The Approach
What's actually changing today?
Not what the headlines say. Not what the demos show. What's shipping, working, and available to your business right now.
Something painful. Something that matters.
Not a pilot. Not a committee. One workflow that costs you real time or real money every single week.
Not “add AI” — start from scratch.
Bolting AI onto a broken process makes a faster broken process. Redesign the workflow around what AI can actually do and work towards becoming an AI native company.
Test. Measure. Fix.
Two weeks. A clear success metric. No endless iteration cycles. If it works, you'll know. If it doesn't, you'll know faster.
Until the business operates differently.
Each cycle is faster than the last. The capability compounds. The organization learns. That's the transformation.
No massive transformation.
Just focused change that compounds.
