### About YAGNI

YAGNI is a SaaS tool that creates AI agent Teams you manage like human employees. You assign a Team a slice of your business with defined Responsibilities, a metric it's measured on (the Number), Commitments, and Rhythms for recurring work. The system learns from your corrections, climbing a trust ladder toward autonomous operation while keeping irreversible actions under your approval.

### Review

YAGNI takes a management-first approach to AI agents. Instead of prompting each task, you give a Team a domain to own and review its output. The tool drafts a Team from your company's website in about 30 seconds, and from there the trust ladder (Training, Supervised, Autonomous) structures how much autonomy a Team earns based on a track record you can read.

#### Key Features

- Proactive agent Teams: each Team gets Responsibilities, a Number to measure progress, Commitments with deadlines, and Rhythms for recurring actions.
- Trust ladder with earned autonomy: Teams start in Training (drafts only), advance to Supervised, then Autonomous, with promotion based on clean approvals, edits you shipped, and the absence of reversals. A human confirms every level change.
- Correction and rule learning: editing a draft saves the before/after as an example; three similar edits trigger a proposed rule in the Playbook. Rules are tracked and can be retired if they correlate with reversals.
- Briefs and Receipts: the Front Page publishes three daily Briefs summarizing work. Every action generates a Receipt from the source system, verifying what actually happened.
- Free team draft: paste a company URL at [yagni.app/build-your-team](https://yagni.app/build-your-team?ref=completeaitraining.com) (no signup) to receive a Brief with a proposed Team structure and a week-one plan.

#### Pricing and Value

Paid plans start at $99/month. A launch discount of 60% off any plan for six months is available with the code **YAGNIPH**. The tool runs on open-weight models, which the maker states keeps compute costs low enough for Teams to operate continuously rather than in short bursts. The free team draft requires no credit card and
