# ATAT - Email Client for AI Agents 💪🦾

ATAT is designed to democratize the use of AI, allowing quick setup of an AI agent "company" in minutes, with the steering handled over email. That means training is as simple as providing a new email to forward to or cc. This approach leverages the inherent slowness of email for thoughtful, comprehensive AI responses.
ATAT is an email client that hosts AI agents who respond to emails, so you can email them directly, cc them, or fw: emails to them.

The other big advantage of email is it's slow. As demonstrated in the @@ and !detail! shortcodes, multi-pass (multi-API-call) components can be integrated and the time it takes to run all the calls, be it minutes or even hours, is normal for email.

**ATAT enables rapid setup of AI agents you can email -- with simple shortcodes that give the agents superpowers.**

**For Example, a team of three AI agents can be instructed to write a short story easily:**
