Amazon Lex alternative
Amazon Lex is the conversational AI behind Alexa: the same NLU engine, integrated natively with Lambda, DynamoDB, Connect, S3, and Polly, scaling to millions of conversations with AWS's compliance certifications. Choose Lex if you're already on AWS and have developers to write Lambda functions and manage infrastructure. Choose TinyAgents for the opposite: no AWS account, no Lambda, no infrastructure. Pick an LLM, write a prompt, connect to data.

Where it fits
TinyAgents shares the data layer with forms, tables, workflows, email. No 'connect Airtable' step in your agent setup.
Real flows
Every email → agent classifies urgency, drafts replies for low-stakes ones, escalates the rest.
New lead → agent looks up company, finds contact, drafts opener, pushes to outbound queue.
Support email → agent reads docs, drafts an answer, posts in Slack for human approval before send.
Morning agent queries tables, computes deltas, writes a one-paragraph summary, emails it.

Agents in TinyCommand sit in the same product as your forms, database and email. Give an agent tools you build on the canvas, like finding or updating a TinyTables record, with no third-party connection to set up. Plus one credit pool across every product.
Agents with tools: built-in ones such as web search, reading files, a calculator, sending email and your knowledge base, plus custom tools you build on the canvas. The agent decides which tool to call for the task. Same paradigm as Lindy/Gumloop.
Yes. Run your agent on TinyGPT with credits, or bring your own key for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini and other providers.
Every run is logged with each step's input, output and errors, so a failed run shows which step went wrong.
1,000 credits a month, free forever, and AI agent steps run in workflows on every plan (10 credits per agent step). Forms, tables, workflows and email are included too. Building your own agents starts on Professional at $49/mo.
