# Monday AI AI portfolio inside monday.com: AI Blocks (in-board AI actions), monday Sidekick (assistant), monday Agents (multi-step autonomous tasks), monday Vibe (AI app builder), AI Notetaker, AI workflows. ## About Monday AI Monday AI is the umbrella for AI features inside monday.com's work platform. It bundles AI Blocks (drop-in board actions like summarize, classify, draft), monday Sidekick (a chat assistant), monday Agents (multi-step autonomous workers), monday Vibe (a no-code AI app builder), and AI Notetaker for meetings. The pitch is to make boards, dashboards, and CRM views smarter without leaving monday.com. Sistava is the opposite philosophy. Instead of layering AI inside a board tool, Sistava hires an AI Employee that owns a role and works across whatever tools the job requires. Monday AI is excellent if your team already runs on monday.com and you want sharper boards. Sistava is the call when you want the job done end to end without committing to a specific PM tool first. ## Platform details - Pricing: AI Credits at $0.01 each. Standard min 2,000 credits/mo ($20).

Monday AI is a portfolio of features layered onto the monday.com work platform. AI Blocks drop into boards as actions (summarize a column, classify a row, draft a message). Monday Sidekick is a chat assistant that knows your workspace. Monday Agents run multi-step tasks like answering inbound emails or processing applications. Monday Vibe lets you build custom AI apps without code, and AI Notetaker records and summarizes meetings. All of it lives inside monday.com. You design a board, attach an AI Block to a column or trigger, and the AI step fires when a row changes. Agents extend the same pattern to multi-step tasks, and Vibe lets you publish full mini-apps that your team uses inside monday. The unit of value is a sharper board. Sistava is built around a different unit. Instead of decorating boards with AI, Sistava hires an AI Employee that owns a role like sales, marketing, or support. The employee has a schedule, a task list, a mailbox, and a memory. Work happens because someone is responsible, not because a row changed. ## How much does Monday AI actually cost? The new model is seats plus credits plus app fees. Seats follow the existing tiers (Free, Basic, Standard, Pro). On top of that, you buy AI credits at one cent each, with monthly minimums starting at 1,000 credits for Basic and 3,000 for Pro. A standard AI Block costs 8 credits per action and a sales-style agent call costs 150 credits. Monday Vibe is a separate meter. Building and testing apps is free, but publishing apps starts around $100 per month for 10 apps and scales from there. If a published Vibe app uses AI, it also burns credits at roughly 30 credits per message. By the time you have seats, credits, and Vibe publishing, three bills are in play. Sistava commits to one flat price that includes the model. There is no credit ceiling that pauses agents and no separate fee to publish an internal app. For a small team that wants AI to do volume work, predictable beats metered. ## When does Monday AI beat alternatives? Monday AI wins when monday.com is already the workspace and the team needs AI on the boards they already use. CRM teams, marketing ops, and creative shops that run dashboards in monday get sharper boards on day one. Adding AI Blocks to existing automations is faster than introducing a new vendor for AI work. It also wins for teams that want to build internal apps without code. Monday Vibe lets a non-engineer prototype a small ops app, ship it inside monday, and share it with their team. That is a different shape of value than hiring an AI Employee and a useful one if internal tools is the goal. Finally, Monday's AI Notetaker plus Sidekick combo is genuinely good for meeting-heavy teams whose work product is structured around recorded calls. Sistava covers meetings differently, through employees that book and follow up rather than through a notetaker bolted to the calendar. ## Where does Monday AI fall short at scale? The credit model is the first cliff. A 150-credit sales agent call sounds small until you imagine an agent qualifying 200 leads a week. The bill scales with volume, not with outcomes, and the AI stops when the credit pool is empty until you top up. Single-tool gravity is the second issue. Most of monday's AI value lives inside monday boards. The moment work needs to leave (write to a CRM that is not synced, run a browser task, kick off a Stripe charge), you fall back to traditional integrations and automations. Sistava treats every tool as part of the daily run. Team coordination across multiple agents is the third gap. Monday Agents run per task. There is no team leader that delegates sub-tasks to specialist employees and reviews the results. Sistava ships team hierarchies, leaders, and sprint planning out of the box. Honest take: Monday's AI portfolio is impressive inside its own surface. For founders who want a workforce not a smarter board, the model is the wrong shape. ## How does Monday AI handle cross-tool work? Monday relies on its integration catalog and automations recipes for cross-tool work. AI Blocks can call into Slack, Gmail, Outlook, Salesforce, HubSpot, and dozens of others through existing connectors. The catalog is broad and well-supported, and AI inside a board can usually reach out via an automation step. The pattern stays hub and spoke. Monday is the hub, integrations are the spokes, and the AI assumes monday rows are the source of truth. That is fine when your operation is centered there. It is less fine when most of the data lives in Stripe, Postgres, the inbox, or a partner API. Sistava runs the spokes as part of normal work. The employee logs into Gmail to send outbound, hits the CRM directly, opens a browser to research, and writes back to whatever board you want, monday included. The hub is the employee, not a single platform. ## Comparison - [Compare Monday AI with Sistava](/en/compare/pm-ai/monday-ai) — See the two platforms side by side when you are ready to evaluate them.
