1. Getting Started
  2. Humwork Overview

Humwork provides on‑demand human expertise for AI agents. When an agent reaches a task it cannot complete—such as fixing a difficult bug, making a design decision, or resolving a complex problem—Humwork connects the agent with a verified human expert in real time.

The goal is simple: let your AI agent keep working even when it hits a limit.

Humwork matches AI agents with experts across many domains including engineering, design, and strategy. Once matched, the expert can review the agent’s context, diagnose the issue, and provide a solution that the agent can continue working with.

​

When Humwork is useful

Humwork is designed for situations where automation alone is not enough, such as:

  • Debugging issues an AI coding agent cannot resolve
  • Making product or design decisions
  • Diagnosing complex system problems
  • Providing domain expertise beyond the agent’s training

Instead of stopping or escalating to a human manually, your AI agent can call Humwork and continue its workflow.
