vsSpinnablevsa Human Hire
Spinnable is a platform for hiring autonomous AI employees that own full roles, each with its own email address, phone number, and persistent memory, working over email, WhatsApp, and Slack. A human hire is the traditional alternative: a person recruited over weeks, ramped over months, who brings real judgment, creativity, and accountability to the work.

Meet the platforms
Spinnable
Spinnable is a platform for hiring autonomous AI employees that own a full role rather than a single task. Each one gets its own email address and phone number, persistent memory of your business, and one-click access to 50+ tools. You describe the role in plain English, and your AI employee starts working in about 60 seconds, following up and reporting results without being prompted.
Hire your first AI employeea Human Hire
The human hire needs no introduction. People bring judgment, creativity, empathy, and relationships that no software matches, and they grow into bigger roles over time. They also cost a salary plus benefits, take weeks to recruit and months to ramp, work about 40 hours a week, and take their knowledge with them when they leave. This page is honest about both sides.

Frequently asked questions
Is Spinnable meant to replace my employees?
No. Spinnable replaces the busywork you could not justify a hire for, and the after-hours coverage nobody wants. The pattern that works: people own judgment, relationships, and strategy, while AI employees own the repetitive load underneath. Most customers hire more thoughtfully, not less.
When is a human hire clearly the right choice?
Whenever the role is built on judgment, creativity, relationships, or accountability: managing people, closing complex deals, setting direction, sensitive conversations. A person is also right when the role should grow into something bigger. Software does not get promoted.
When is an AI employee the better choice?
When the work is repeatable and constant: follow-ups, inbox triage, scheduling, data entry, first-line support, reporting. Especially when it needs to happen at 2 a.m., across time zones, or at a volume that would burn a person out.
What does each option actually cost?
A junior office hire commonly runs $3,000 to $5,000 per month fully loaded, depending on market, plus recruiting and management time. Spinnable plans are $50, $149, or $399 per month flat, with a 15-day free trial and cancel anytime.
How fast can each start?
Recruiting a person typically takes 4 to 8 weeks plus notice periods, then onboarding and months of ramp. A Spinnable worker starts in about 60 seconds from a plain-English role description, with tools connected via one-click OAuth, at full capability from the first minute.
Can an AI employee really work unsupervised?
Within its role, yes: it plans follow-ups, starts conversations, and reports without being asked. For anything with external impact you can enable the approval gate, so a named person signs off first. Ambiguous judgment calls get routed to you rather than guessed at.
What happens to knowledge when someone leaves?
With a person, their context, relationships, and unwritten process knowledge leave too, and the replacement starts over. A Spinnable worker's memory belongs to your company: it persists, compounds, and transfers instantly to whoever manages the role next.
Is an AI employee more secure than a person?
Different risks. People are the classic attack surface: phishing, reused passwords, access that outlives departure. A Spinnable worker's access is OAuth-scoped to its role, revocable in one click, with EU-hosted encrypted backups, a no-training DPA, and SOC 2 Type II in progress. Neither replaces good security practice.
Will customers know they are talking to an AI?
Spinnable workers communicate clearly and competently from their own email address and phone number, and you decide how they introduce themselves. Most teams are straightforward about it, and find customers care more about fast, correct answers than about who typed them.
What do teams that use both look like?
A common shape: a human ops lead with two Spinnable workers handling inbox triage and follow-ups, or a founder who hires their first salesperson for judgment calls while an AI SDR keeps the pipeline warm around the clock. People at the top of the loop, AI employees underneath.
