  • Deploy an Agent That Works for You

    10:10 AMBoole

    Spin up an agent like OpenClaw or Hermes on Maritime and make it useful for yourself or your company. In this hands-on workshop led by Maria Gorskikh, you’ll connect your agent to the tools you use and set it up to automate a business process or handle a recurring task. You’ll leave with a deployed agent and the know-how to integrate it into your company’s workflows.
