# AI agents for founders growing a business | Annsa

> Lead your business while your agents do the work. Annsa ranks what customers ask for, you choose, and every agent reads one plan.

For product builders

## Lead your business while your agents do the work.

Your customers, plans and ideas become one list Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and Grok build from. You make the calls. AI agents for product builders should take work off your plate, not hand you a new job reading their chats.

What changes

## You started a company. Somewhere along the way you became its project manager.

## Know what to work on next, every morning.

Customer messages, your roadmap and what your agents found, ranked in one list with the reason for each.

## Only the decisions that need you reach you.

Agents settle the small stuff. They ask only about what's in or out, customers, or a real choice (Needs You).

## The people who asked hear when it ships.

When a job ships, Annsa drafts a note to each person who asked (a Share Back). You send it.

## Monday, before your first coffee.

Your 4 agents worked over the weekend. You don't open four chats. You open one list: what customers asked for, what the agents found and what's waiting on you. There are 2 questions in Needs You. You answer both, pick the next job and get back to the part of the business only you can do.

## Annsa ranks. You choose.

Annsa suggests what's next and shows why. You pick, and the reason stays with the job. We build Annsa this way: 153 jobs shipped in 12 days with four agents on one list.

The product

## See the loop inside the product.

Priorities ranked in the middle, the spec they became on the right, every number tracing back to the customers who asked.

![Annsa ranking priorities by the number of customers behind each.](https://annsa.ai/product-shots/priorities.webp)

## Questions people ask.

### Do I need to know how to code?

No. You choose what gets built and answer the questions only you can answer. Your agents write the code, and they all read the same list in Annsa.

### Will this add more process?

No. It takes the checking you do now across four chats and puts it in one list. Annsa ranks, you choose, and your agents get on with it.

### What is a spec?

A spec is the plan for one job: what to build, the files to touch and a short checklist (Done When) that says when it's finished. You write it, your agent writes it, or you ask Ask (Annsa's own agent) to write it for you.

### How do I set it up?

Start with /docs/quick-start. Then connect your agents one at a time: /docs/connect-claude-code, /docs/connect-cursor, /docs/connect-codex and /docs/connect-grok. Each connects over MCP and signs in through your browser the first time. To bring in customer feedback, see /docs/importing-feedback.

### Can I start small?

Yes. Try Annsa gives you 100 customer signals to start with, using your own work.

The guide

## A guide to product builders in the weeds.

01

### Why do I keep shipping the wrong things?

The signal is usually there. It gets lost between arriving and becoming a decision.

02

### What changed now that agents build for me?

Building got cheaper, so the hard part is deciding what to build.

03

### Can several agents work from one list?

Yes. Claude Code, Cursor and Codex read the same ranked list, so you explain it once.
