# UbuntAI > UbuntAI is a South African AI consultancy that designs, deploys and operates autonomous AI agents ("AI teammates") for businesses: customer-operations agents on WhatsApp, email and web chat; voice agents for inbound and outbound calls; computer-use agents that operate legacy software with no API; an MCP-based integration layer for CRM, accounting and ERP; document and back-office automation; and multi-agent operations and reporting. Every agent ships with human hand-off rules, audit logs, role-based access, evals before each release, spend caps and a kill-switch, and POPIA-aligned data handling. ## Services - AI teammates for customer operations: answer, qualify, book and follow up on WhatsApp, email and web chat, 24/7, with hand-off to staff. - Voice agents: inbound receptionist and outbound reminders/follow-ups, with transcripts, summaries and escalation. - Computer-use agents: operate ERPs, supplier portals, government sites and other systems without APIs, with recorded runs. - Integration layer (MCP): one Model Context Protocol connection to CRM, accounting, ERP, calendars and WhatsApp that every agent shares, so models can be swapped without rebuilding. - Documents and back office: extraction, classification, filing, reconciliations and month-end with human approval of exceptions. - Multi-agent operations and reporting: scheduled research, monitoring and reporting with approval gates, dashboards and alerts. ## Selected work - WhatsApp booking and support teammate for an online counselling practice, serving clients in 15+ countries. - Autonomous email-operations agent for a healthcare provider, taking logged database and API actions. ## How engagements run 1.
