Using an agent where a simpler tool would do adds cost, risk, and complexity without adding value – and using a simpler tool where an agent is needed leaves real gains on the table.<\/p>\n

This section gives you a practical framework for making that call: what an AI agent actually is, when it’s the right solution, how much autonomy to give it, and how to define what success looks like before you build anything.<\/p>\n
