What is the core use case here? For example instead of adopting a dedicated customer support chatbot, why should someone build one on Rowboat? As far as I can see, the customisability parameters are not that different


Great question. Rowboat is a non-opinionated agent framework, so you can build support bots but also meeting prep, reporting, repo management, and other daily automations in the same place.

Even for support, it's more flexible: companies are shifting from narrow "customer support" to broader customer experience - not just resolving tickets, but handling onboarding, account health, proactive updates, and escalations across teams. With Rowboat, you can compose cross-functional agents across support, product, and ops. The same system that answers tickets can also trigger workflows, update dashboards, or prep reports.

Does this make sense?
