# AI Agents of the Project

An **AI Agent** is an intelligent agent designed to perform tasks, interact with users, and answer questions instantly based on your organizational or project-level data.

In AptlyStar, you can create agents **directly within a project**, allowing them to be scoped specifically to that project's datasets and goals.
