Before deploying Mercury
What work can we give Mercury?
Give Mercury real workloads that follow your team’s processes and procedures. It works independently on its own computer, using files, browsers, and applications to carry out time-consuming or regularly repeated tasks. Define the outcome, permissions, and completion checks, then assign work in conversation or schedule a routine. Your team can focus on strategic decisions while Mercury handles the work.
Can we change models or providers?
Yes. Stored memory and history remain independent of the provider. Switch supported models and providers; tool support and task performance vary by model.
Can Mercury run in our own environment?
On premises, in your cloud account, or in a hosted environment. We configure application storage, computer runtime, and scheduling; capabilities depend on the host and setup.
Who decides what an agent may do?
Tool grants and action policies define authority. Procedures can require human decisions and evidence. Inspect, pause, cancel, or resume work; assigning a task never grants new system access.
What work would you give an agent?
Tell us the outcome you need, the systems involved, and who should review the result.
