Brigade

Description

Brigade is an AI-powered platform that gives a business a team of AI teammates that write code, answer customers, handle marketing and follow up leads. The teammates run on the Claude or ChatGPT plan the user already pays for, and every decision that needs a person lands in one list on the user's phone.

Each teammate runs the real Claude Code and Codex, signed in with the user's own accounts, so Brigade does not bill for AI usage. Several Claude or ChatGPT accounts can be connected, and when one reaches its limit the teammate carries on with the next account in the middle of a task. A different model can be chosen for each teammate, for example Opus for engineering, Sonnet for support and GPT for marketing.

Teammates connect to tools such as Gmail, GitHub, Google Drive, PostHog, Stripe and Notion, and can work across them from a single message. Each teammate also has its own browser on a computer of its own, signs in to websites with logins kept in a workspace vault, and never sees the passwords because Brigade types them in.

Key features include Teach a task, where the user does a job once while the teammate watches and saves the steps as a reusable skill, workspace memory that keeps what the team decides, and routines that start work automatically when a Stripe payment fails, a GitHub issue opens or a customer email arrives, or on a set schedule.

Typical jobs include bug fixes, release checks, ticket cleanup, support inbox triage, help centre updates, release notes, competitor watching, customer research, search traffic reports, lead follow-ups, meeting prep, invoice reminders, failed payment follow-ups, weekly numbers and spreadsheet upkeep.

Users stay in control through per-teammate approvals for actions such as sending an email, changing something in Stripe or shipping code, read-only or read-write access to each app, and a step-by-step log of everything a teammate read and changed. Brigade is open source and its code history is public on GitHub.

Pricing: a Free plan runs teammates on the user's own computer while it is on, with unlimited teammates, threads and members. The Cloud plan costs USD 99 per month and gives each teammate its own cloud computer that keeps working when the user's computer is off, plus an email address for each teammate. Both plans use the user's own Claude or ChatGPT subscription.

It is suited to founders, small teams and startups that want to hand off engineering, support, marketing, sales and operations work to AI agents while keeping the final decisions.
