EXTERNAL AGENTS

Bring your AI agent into Front. Yes, even theirs.

Connect your agents built with Claude, Codex, and more to work with them like teammates. Know how every agent is performing and change any behavior on the spot, without the manual audits or the second tab.

“Using external agents in Front has saved us at least 11 hours a week of lookup, paperwork, and first replies we no longer do by hand, which has been monumental for our agency.”

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find the answer here? Our support team is happy to help.

You can connect any supported agent of your choosing including ones custom-built with Claude and Codex or third-party agents such as Sierra, Decagon, and more. Some custom agents may need to be self hosted to connect to Front. To connect an agent, follow the steps here.

Connecting an external agent is included on all Front plans. You can connect the agents you already use without moving to a different tier, and you can add more than one.

Yes. You can connect multiple external agents and assign a different one to each brand, team, region, or workflow. Each agent gets its own identity, permissions, and controls.

No. You can connect a preferred external agent already built and route each workflow to whichever agent performs best for it. If you are new to building AI agents or would like to explore how to build tailored custom agents for your business, learn more about Front’s Autopilot.

When a person needs to take over, the conversation and its context stay in Front so the team can continue the work.
