What is an AI employee?
An AI employee is an autonomous AI worker that takes ownership of a full role. It has its own email address and phone number, remembers your business context, works inside your existing tools, and completes tasks and follow-ups without being prompted step by step.
What is the difference between an AI employee and an AI agent?
An AI agent completes a defined task when triggered, so you still manage the workload. An AI employee owns a whole role: it holds persistent memory, communicates over email, Slack, and WhatsApp, schedules its own follow-ups, and handles recurring work autonomously.
What roles can AI employees do?
Spinnable AI employees cover roles across operations, sales, marketing, finance, and customer support, including executive assistants, sales reps, content creators, financial analysts, HR coordinators, and property managers. If you do not see your role, describe it in plain language and hire a custom worker.
How much does an AI employee cost?
Spinnable AI employees start at $50 per month, a fraction of the cost of hiring a person for the same repetitive work. There are no contracts and you can cancel anytime.
How long does it take to set up an AI employee?
About 60 seconds. Pick a role, describe the job in plain language, and connect tools like Google Workspace, Outlook, Notion, HubSpot, or Salesforce. No technical setup is required.
Are AI employees safe to connect to my tools?
You choose exactly which tools each AI employee can access and can revoke that access at any time. Spinnable's security practices are documented in the Spinnable Trust Center.
Do AI employees replace human employees?
AI employees take over the repetitive, high-volume work that fills a team's week, like inbox triage, data entry, follow-ups, and reporting. Most teams use them to give people time back for judgment work, not to replace them.
What is the difference between an AI employee and an AI worker?
The terms describe the same thing: autonomous AI that owns a role instead of a single task. Some platforms say AI worker, digital worker, or digital employee, others say AI employee or AI teammate. Spinnable uses AI employee and AI worker interchangeably.
How much does an AI employee cost compared to a human employee?
A human hire for the same repetitive work typically costs $4,000 or more per month in salary and benefits, plus weeks of recruiting and onboarding. A Spinnable AI employee starts at $50 per month, is hired in about 60 seconds, and works around the clock.
Can I manage or fire an AI employee?
Yes. You manage an AI employee the way you would a contractor: change its responsibilities in plain language, narrow or expand its tool access, pause it, or cancel it at any moment. There are no contracts or notice periods.
