ETA Switchboard
Your keys. Your agents. Your workflows. Build AI agents and workflows on the AI accounts you already have: sign in with OpenRouter or plug in a Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini key, add ready-made agents and agent teams, and decide what each one may do on its own. Everything else waits for your approval.
Your keys, your models, your workflows
1. Connect your AI account
Sign in with OpenRouter, or paste a key from Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI, Google Gemini or any OpenAI-compatible service. Stored encrypted; only your agents use it.
2. Build agents
Give a model clear instructions: a recap writer, a researcher, a reviewer. Try it right away and see the tokens it used.
3. Chain workflows
Read a web page, ask an agent, write text, send the result. Run it by hand, from a form or webhook, or every morning.
4. Approve what goes out
Sends to Slack or your other tools wait for you to read and approve them, unless you let a guarded agent act within limits you set.
Agent teams
A lead agent plans the job, hands each specialist a clear task, checks the work and delivers the result, within a step and token budget. Every step and safety check is in the run's activity log.
A roster of ready-made agents
18 operational agents and 10 teams for operations, sales and marketing, people and admin, and finance and compliance. Each comes with tested instructions, only the tools it needs, an autonomy level, guardrails and a budget.
Guardrails on every agent
Mask personal data before it reaches the model, check for prompt injection and leaked secrets, limit tools, set budgets, and choose draft only, act with approval or act within limits.
Prompt library, for you and your team
Keep the prompts that work in one place, with fill-in fields, folders and version history. Run any of them on your own AI account, share them with your team and mark the approved version, or turn one into a workflow in a click. Start from tested prompts by role in the ETA prompt library.

Good to know
Does ETA see my prompts or results?
Your runs are stored in your account so you can see them. ETA staff see counts, never your keys, prompts or results.
Who pays for the AI?
You do, directly to your provider, on the account you connect. ETA adds no markup and never pays for or resells model usage.
Which models can I use?
Anything your account or key can reach. Sign in with OpenRouter for Claude, GPT, Gemini and hundreds more in one step, or paste a key from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini, Perplexity, Mistral or Groq, or any public endpoint that speaks the OpenAI chat format, including a self-hosted model you've put online.
Can it send email or update my CRM?
With ETA Pro and up, a workflow or agent team can post to a Slack channel you connect, or call a webhook in Zapier, Make or n8n, which reach Gmail, Google Drive and thousands of apps. Sends wait for your approval unless you set a guarded agent to act within limits, and even then only to destinations you pick, up to 20 a day.
Can I sell my templates?
Yes. Share an agent or workflow from your Switchboard, free or from $5 to $500. ETA reviews each one, keeps 10% of sales, and Stripe's fee comes out of your share.
