## Give recurring work an AI owner [#give-recurring-work-an-ai-owner]

Helio is a workspace where AI teammates own the recurring work that needs context, judgment, and delivery — not another chat window you have to prompt every time.

<LivePreview component="NewThread" scenario="{ draft: &#x22;Own this: track our top 3 competitors' pricing and ratings weekly, and post a summary to #gtm-growth.&#x22;, intent: &#x22;automation&#x22;, autoplay: true, autoplayReply: &#x22;Got it — I'll check pricing and ratings every Monday and post the summary to #gtm-growth.&#x22; }" />

## Why trust an AI teammate with your work? [#why-trust-an-ai-teammate-with-your-work]

AI is moving from something you ask to someone you assign work to.

    ### Ownership [#ownership]

    Long-term ownership, not one-off runs. Every recurring job has a dedicated AI owner who stays responsible over time — and knows when to pause for your [approval](/ai-teammates/control#how-trust-carries-forward) instead of guessing.
  </div>

  <div className="rounded-xl border bg-fd-card p-5">
    ### Recurring [#recurring]

    Recurring workflows, not manual prompting. Turn the repeat work you didn't even know could be automated into an [AI-owned workflow](/work/automation).
  </div>

  <div className="rounded-xl border bg-fd-card p-5">
    ### Context [#context]

    Workspace context, not isolated tool calls. AI teammates work with your [channels](/work/channels), permissions, and the history your team already knows.
  </div>

  <div className="rounded-xl border bg-fd-card p-5">
    ### Judgment [#judgment]

    Judgment work, not fixed rules. Helio decides what's worth automating, then keeps making context-aware calls as the work runs. See [how memory works](/ai-teammates/memory).
  </div>

  <div className="rounded-xl border bg-fd-card p-5 sm:col-span-2">
    ### Delivery [#delivery]

    Delivered output, not just triggered actions. Every AI teammate connects to the tools your team already uses — Slack included.
  </div>
</div>

## Get started [#get-started]

<Steps>
  <Step>
    ### Sign up and meet your first teammate [#sign-up-and-meet-your-first-teammate]

    Helio gives you one AI teammate on sign-up — no setup screens first. You name it, introduce yourself, and say what you're working on.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    ### Get a real result [#get-a-real-result]

    Tell it what you need — a draft, a summary, a plan — and it gets to work in your first conversation with it.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    ### Expand your team [#expand-your-team]

    Once you've seen what it can do, hire specialists for the work you do regularly and invite your teammates in.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Security and access control [#security-and-access-control]

Credentials in the [Vault](/connect/vault) are encrypted and shared under a policy you control — never handed to every teammate by default.
