AI workforce for IT Services Founders & Executives

AI agents for founders and executives in IT services

Actionist is an AI automation tool whose agents operate the apps your MSP founders already use, from stitching the Monday scorecard together by hand to a pack and a briefing ready before you sit down.

MSP founders get back the hours lost to scorecards, meeting prep and insurance evidence hunts.

Where you spend your time

Why IT Services Founders & Executives teams switch

We know how your week actually goes

What matters to you
  • A scorecard before Monday's meeting
    SLA attainment, utilisation and recurring revenue are pulled together by Friday, with each move against target noted.
  • Every client meeting briefed
    Open tickets, project status and renewal date are collected for each client executive you are about to meet.
  • No surprise at renewal
    A falling CSAT, a stalled escalation and a renewal 90 days out are flagged weeks before the angry email.
  • Vendor price rises costed
    A new per-user price is compared with what your contracts charge, so you decide with the margin in front of you.
  • Insurance and evidence kept ready
    Proof of MFA, backup and endpoint coverage sits in one folder, so the renewal questionnaire is a first pass, not a hunt.
  • Built around your leadership week
    These are examples of what a founder's agent can do. Build a custom agent for any job you repeat.

And hundreds of other tasks you do manually..

An agent can take a lot off your team's plate. Take a look below to see the time and cost you could save by adding AI agents to your IT Services Founders & Executives team's day.

The problem

Where the hours go

  • Monday's leadership numbers sit across the PSA, QuickBooks and a utilisation sheet, so either the owner walks in with last week's figures or the operations director loses Friday afternoon pulling them together.

    An agent assembles the scorecard from HaloPSA and QuickBooks on Friday, notes each move against target, and leaves you to add the call on every exception before the meeting.

  • The owner's diary fills with client escalations, vendor calls and internal meetings, and each one needs a slot, a briefing and an action list that nobody has time to write.

    An agent triages the inbox each morning, drafts replies and meeting slots for approval, briefs the day's meetings from the PSA and CRM, and lists the actions that came out of each one.

  • A key client's renewal risk reaches the owner as an angry email, though a falling CSAT, an unanswered escalation and a contract 90 days out sat in the PSA for weeks.

    An agent keeps a watchlist of the biggest accounts, flags the combination of signals early, and writes the sponsor brief before you meet that client's leadership.

  • The cyber insurance renewal arrives with dozens of control questions, and answering means hunting for proof of MFA, backups and endpoint cover across the firm's own tenant and its tools.

    An agent keeps the evidence folder current, makes a first pass at each question from it, and marks the ones with no proof, so you answer and sign with the facts already gathered.

Triggers

Your Agent wakes up Automatically whenever something happens

Your agents watch the apps you already use and act the moment something happens, usually within about a minute, handle it based on your instructions, 24/7.

WhenThe month's books are closed in QuickBooks Onlinefires within about a minute
The agent automatically

When the month is marked closed, the agent reads revenue, margin by service line and churn within about a minute, lays them into the owners' pack template in SharePoint, and lists the figures that moved most. The pack stays a draft until you add the narrative and approve it.

With Actionist

What your agent runs for you

  • Executive office
    150 min / week
    Assembling the Monday scorecard

    Someone pulls SLA figures from the PSA, revenue from QuickBooks and hours from timesheets on Friday afternoon, and the owner still reads last week's numbers on Monday.

    Executive office Agent
    0 min
    Agent builds it and notes the moves

    An agent refreshes the scorecard from HaloPSA and QuickBooks on Friday, notes every move against target, and posts it to Slack once you approve the commentary.

  • Executive office
    220 min / week
    Preparing for the day's meetings

    The owner opens the PSA and CRM between meetings to remember what a client has open, and the actions from the last conversation are in nobody's notes.

    Executive office Agent
    0 min
    Agent briefs each meeting beforehand

    An agent writes a half-page brief for each meeting from the PSA and CRM and lists the actions afterwards, all waiting in Teams before the first call.

  • Executive office
    90 min / week
    Spotting a client about to leave

    Renewal risk is judged from memory, so a falling CSAT and a stalled escalation on a large account go unnoticed until the client writes in to complain.

    Executive office Agent
    0 min
    Agent keeps the watchlist

    An agent ranks the largest accounts by contract date, CSAT and open escalations each Monday, with a sponsor brief ready before you meet the client.

  • Executive office
    40 min / week
    Costing a vendor price change

    A price-rise notice sits in the inbox until someone has time to work out per-user margins by hand, by which time the notice period has half run out.

    Executive office Agent

    Agent writes the impact note

    An agent compares the new price with your contract list, shows the margin effect by client tier, and leaves you to choose between repricing, absorbing or switching.

  • Executive office
    75 min / week
    Answering the insurance questionnaire

    Agent keeps evidence and drafts answers

    An agent refreshes the evidence folder weekly and makes a first pass at every control question, so you review the gaps and sign.

Trust & control

You stay in control

An agent that reads the owner's inbox, the books and the client list only earns its place if you stay in control. Actionist is built so you see what it read and drafted, approve anything that leaves the firm, and keep a record of it all.

Anything sent outside the firm waits for you

Replies to clients, reminders, vendor notes and any message to an acquirer or insurer are drafted and held for your approval. You can widen this through Approval Modes.

Decisions on pay, hires and pricing stay yours

The agent gathers the facts for a hire, a repricing or a renewal and presents them. The decision is always a person's, and it never commits the firm to anything.

Full audit trail of every read and draft

Every document the agent opened, every tracker row it changed and every draft it wrote is logged with a timestamp, so you can check exactly what happened.

Confidential material stays under your control

Figures, contracts and acquirer correspondence are encrypted and never used to train any model. Self-host on a VPS if the most sensitive files must stay on your own infrastructure.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do IT services founders need to be technical to use Actionist?
No. Actionist is built for the person running the firm, not for developers. You describe the job in plain language, such as assembling the Monday scorecard or briefing tomorrow's client meetings, connect the apps you already use, and the agent does the work. No code is needed, and it operates tools the way you would.
How do I get started with an agent for my MSP's executive office?
Book a free demo and an Actionist team member will start with the job that eats your week, whether that is the scorecard, the diary or the renewal watchlist, and set up a working example against your own HaloPSA and Outlook. Most founders have a first agent running within a day of the demo.
How do I make a customised AI agent for how I run my firm?
You describe the agent's role, the apps it can open and the approval rule for each kind of action. For the scorecard you name the figures and targets; for the watchlist you decide which signals count as risk. The agent applies those rules on every run, and you change them whenever the way you lead changes.
How quickly can I set an agent up for an IT services founder's week?
A first agent, such as one that briefs each day's meetings from your diary and PSA, can be running within hours of the demo. Jobs that span several tools, like the Friday scorecard across HaloPSA, QuickBooks and Sheets, usually take one to three days to tune. You test against a copy of your data first.
Is it safe to give an agent access to my inbox, the books and acquirer correspondence?
The material stays yours. Everything the agent reads and writes is encrypted, none of it is used to train any model, and every document it opens or draft it writes is logged. You choose which mailboxes and folders it can reach, and if the most sensitive files must stay in-house you can self-host Actionist on a VPS.
What about a PSA, insurer portal or vendor site that has no API?
The agent uses computer use: it opens the portal the way you do, reads the screen and clicks through. An insurer's renewal portal or an older PSA module needs no integration for the agent to read a figure or upload evidence, because it operates the interface rather than waiting for an API that may never come.
Will the agent send anything to a client, insurer or acquirer without me seeing it?
By default, no. Replies to clients, meeting offers, vendor notes, the insurance application and any message to an acquirer are drafted and held for your approval. You can widen autonomy for steps you trust through Approval Modes, but anything leaving the firm asks first.
Does it work if my firm runs on Microsoft 365 rather than Google Workspace?
Yes. Many MSPs run on Outlook, Teams, SharePoint and Excel, and the agent works in those apps as readily as in Gmail and Google Docs. You can mix them, such as Outlook for the diary and Google Sheets for the scorecard, and the agent follows whichever tools hold each piece of work.
Can an agent decide on a hire, a price rise or a renewal for me?
No. It prepares: the hiring summary with ticket load and utilisation, the margin effect of a vendor price change, the renewal brief for a key client. The decision, and anything that commits the firm, stays with you. The agent has no authority to act on pay, hiring, pricing, legal or strategy matters.
