What is AI Agent?

Definition

An AI Agent is an autonomous operational software entity driven by large cognitive reasoning models that can perceive its corporate environment, maintain memory states, make logical decisions, design step-by-step action paths, and invoke external APIs or software tools to execute specific business goals with minimal human intervention.

How Memora uses AI Agent

Memora offers AI assistants (agents) that work from your team's connected tools, and an MCP server that lets coding agents in Claude Code or Cursor query that knowledge.
