Agentic AI

Also known as: Autonomous AI, AI Agents

AI systems designed to take autonomous actions in the world, rather than simply generating outputs in response to prompts. This capability is implemented by tools like Apollo.io to enhance automation and efficiency.

Context

Agentic AI differs from traditional AI assistants by its ability to execute multi-step tasks, use tools, and make decisions. This represents a shift from AI as a "copilot" to AI as an autonomous worker.
