Talking to the Pre Agent

The agent is the fastest way to interact with Pre. Ask it to add a goal, update your progress, run your weekly recap, or pull data from a connected tool. Anything you can do in the dashboard, you can do faster by talking to the agent.

What the Agent Can Do

Manage your sprint

Tell the agent to add, edit, or remove weekly goals. Update goal status and log your actual result. Adjust your North Star or milestones. Assign goals to specific co-founders. No clicking through menus.

Run your weekly recap

At the end of each week, tell the agent you're ready to recap. It pulls your goals and what you logged, gives you a summary of how the week went, and then asks what you want to note: what worked, what didn't, any blockers.

That note gets saved and included in the update your accountability partners receive. The whole thing takes about two minutes.

Pull real data from your tools

When you connect integrations, the agent can check your actual numbers before answering. Ask what your MRR is and it pulls Stripe live. Ask what got merged this week and it checks GitHub. Ask what calls are on your calendar and it reads Google Calendar.

This is what makes the agent more than a chat window. It stops relying on what you say you did and starts checking what actually happened. See Connecting Your Integrations for the full list.

Search the handbook

Ask any question about sprints, goals, accountability, or founder strategy. The agent finds the relevant article and links you directly to it.

Search the web

For things outside your startup's data, like competitor research or market context, the agent can search the web.

The Goal Audit

When you add or edit a goal that's vague or unmeasurable, the agent will flag it and offer three sharper alternatives labeled a, b, and c. Pick one, ask for different options, or keep what you wrote.

This is one of the most useful habits Pre builds. Over a few weeks of writing goals with the agent, you'll find yourself setting better goals without needing the prompt.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of It

• Be specific about numbers. "Update my customer calls goal" is less useful than "I got 10 out of 15 calls done."
• Use it mid-week, not just Friday. Asking "what should I focus on today?" with two days left in the week helps you reprioritize before it's too late.
• Let it run the weekly recap. The two-minute conversation gives your accountability partners better context than a manual status update ever will.
• Ask it anything. If you're stuck on a problem, thinking through a pivot, or just want a gut check, the agent knows your startup context and can give you a grounded response.
