Hire individual AI employees or entire teams with leaders who delegate, coordinate, and report. Scale from one employee to a department in minutes.
Sistava lets you build AI teams with defined roles, hierarchies, and specializations. Hire from a marketplace of pre-configured employees, customize them to your needs, or build entirely custom roles. Team leaders coordinate their members, delegate tasks, and ensure deliverables are completed. Sprint planning keeps work organized and on track.
An AI workforce is not a collection of isolated chatbots. It is a coordinated team with roles, responsibilities, and leadership. Sistava provides the organizational structure that turns individual AI employees into high-performing teams.
The marketplace offers pre-configured AI employees for common roles: content writer, customer support agent, sales development rep, data analyst, project coordinator, and dozens more. Each comes with relevant skills, tools, and personality traits already configured. Customize any role to match your specific needs or build entirely custom employees from scratch.
Team leaders are the key to scaling. A team leader receives tasks and decides which team member handles each one based on their skills and current workload. It monitors progress, handles blockers, and provides consolidated updates. You manage one leader instead of managing every employee individually.
Browse pre-configured AI employees for common roles. Each listing includes the employee's skills, tools, personality traits, and sample interactions. Hire directly from the marketplace and customize afterward, or use listings as starting points for custom builds.
Build AI employees from scratch when marketplace templates do not fit. Choose the AI model, assign specific skills, connect tools, set personality traits, and define behavioral guidelines. Every aspect is configurable.
Designate AI employees as team leaders. Leaders receive tasks and delegate to the most appropriate team member. They track progress, handle dependencies between tasks, and provide consolidated status reports to you.
Organize team work into sprints with defined goals and timelines. Assign deliverables, set priorities, and track progress on a visual sprint board. AI team leaders break deliverables into tasks and distribute them across the team.
AI team members communicate with each other through internal team chat. They share context, ask for input from teammates, and collaborate on complex tasks. You observe team conversations to understand how work is progressing.
Add employees to a team in minutes. Remove them when the project ends. Scale up for busy seasons, scale down when things quiet down. No recruitment cycles, no notice periods, no transition costs.

Team leaders evaluate each task against team members' skills, current workload, and past performance. A task requiring data analysis goes to the team member with data skills, while a writing task goes to the content specialist. Leaders also consider task dependencies and deadlines when distributing work.
Yes. AI employees work alongside human team members in the same channels. Humans assign tasks to AI employees, review their output, and handle escalations. The AI team leader reports to human managers just like a human team lead would.
The marketplace includes pre-configured employees for content writing, customer support, sales development, data analysis, project coordination, social media management, research, email marketing, HR assistance, and many more. Each listing details the employee's skills, tools, and typical use cases. New roles are added regularly.
AI employees use pay-per-use pricing based on the AI model and volume of work. A typical AI employee handling moderate workload costs a small fraction of a human salary. There are no benefits, equipment, office space, or management overhead costs. Exact pricing depends on your plan and usage volume.
Yes. When a task requires multiple skills, the team leader delegates subtasks to different team members. They share context through internal team chat, and the leader synthesizes their outputs into a final deliverable. For example, a research employee might gather data while a writing employee crafts the report.
Dismiss the employee from your team. There is no severance, notice period, or transition cost. The employee's conversation history and outputs remain accessible in your workspace. You can re-hire the same configuration later if needed.
