AnswerRocket

Max connects to enterprise data sources and answers across structured and unstructured data. Reports and decks go out to people on a schedule, and AnswerRocket does not describe any action an agent takes inside another system. Its partners include Snowflake, Databricks, AWS, Microsoft, Google and Anthropic.

Customers build their own skills in Skill Studio and assemble agents that use those skills for analysis, report generation and workflow automation, so the customer designs the flow. AnswerRocket does not describe how skills are chained together. Skills can be written in code or imported as code, with their own properties, global functions, variables and resources. Max also draws up and carries out research plans for complex questions, and its agent lifecycle runs from design through testing, deployment and monitoring.

Max answers business questions by exploring the customer's structured data and unstructured documents together in one conversation, without the user writing queries. Template skills such as Document Explore and Data Explorer search the documents and data. Max works over a database connection to PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery or Redshift.

There is no approval step, review queue or guardrail setting on agent output or actions. Data entitlements decide what each person can see and carry over automatically to shared reports, but they do not control what an agent does.

Authentication runs through SAML or LDAP with AD supported, administrators set row, column and table level security with entitlements by user, role and group, and data is encrypted in transit and at rest with AWS KMS. No attestation such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001 is published. Max runs on AWS with GuardDuty and Inspector as well as KMS, and data moves over HTTPS. AnswerRocket controls encryption at rest in its own cloud, and the customer controls it outside that cloud.

Every query is tracked with a date and timestamp and security related user and administrator actions are audited, but there is no record of the steps or tool calls an agent took on a request. The audit trail covers logins, new users and password changes, only administrators can view it, and no one can edit it. Exports are logged, and prebuilt usage reports and dashboards show how Max is used. The agent lifecycle ends in a monitoring and optimization stage.

Conversations continue across turns in threads whose history the SDK can manage. A developer can read a thread's entries back or pass conversation history in as messages. AnswerRocket does not describe any memory that Max carries from one conversation to the next.

Max can be self hosted in the customer's own AWS, Azure or GCP account or on premises, with published instance requirements, alongside AnswerRocket's cloud on AWS. A self hosted instance runs on a Linux machine with Docker, at least 4 vCPUs and 16 GB of RAM, and it uses the customer's own LLM key and endpoint.

Max sends reports and decks on a schedule and monitors KPIs, so work runs without a person asking each time. Through the SDK, a question can also be queued and its answer picked up later by polling.

A self hosted Max takes the customer's own LLM key and endpoint of choice, and the SDK can override the chat and narrative models per request, for example GPT-4 for chat and Claude 3 Opus for narrative. AnswerRocket lists Anthropic, Microsoft, AWS and Google among its partners.

The Python SDK (answerrocket-client), authenticated with an account API token, asks Max questions, manages threads, runs specific skills and queues requests for polling, with code examples for each. The SDK can read its URL and token from environment variables, force specific skills onto a question, and return the narrative, the message and whether the answer has finished. Skills can be exported and imported as code.

The SDK scores an answer against named evaluations such as accuracy, completeness and clarity and records positive or negative feedback on each response, and Max's agent lifecycle includes a testing and validation stage before deployment. AnswerRocket does not describe the scoring method. Skills can be tested in Skill Studio before they are shared.

Max and its agents do not operate a browser or desktop. Max works through data connections, skills and the SDK.
