Harnessing the Power of Agents
ABOUT THIS SESSION
If you've been curious about agentic workflows but don't know where to start, this is the session for you. We'll be building your agent from scratch, in an LLM that you know and already use, so that it's easy to use and benefits you.
Adrian Elson, CEO of ElSolve, will walk us through how he has built and deployed agentic workflows to automate and improve processes for small and medium-sized businesses.
He’ll then guide us step-by-step through creating our own agent via Projects in Claude - whether that’s one that helps clear and stay on top of your inbox, acts as your very own Chief of Staff, or tackles another task you’d love to automate.
You won’t just learn about agents - by the end of the session, you’ll have built one yourself!
