Frequently Asked Questions
What is AutoGen designed for?
AutoGen is a Microsoft Research framework designed for AI developers and researchers exploring multi-agent conversations and cooperative reasoning. It is a foundational research tool, not a turnkey business application.
Can a pressure-washing or window-cleaning company use AutoGen directly?
Only with significant developer support. AutoGen requires Python expertise, agent architecture design, and infrastructure management. Workely is the finished instant-quote system for exterior cleaners — results without the engineering overhead.
Is AutoGen free?
The framework is open-source and free. Running it requires Azure compute plus LLM API fees, which add up quickly for production workloads. Workely's flat $149/mo includes everything hosted and ready, with $99/mo locked for the first 10 founding owners.
Does AutoGen quote and book leads out of the box?
No — it is a framework, not a product. You would build the pricing, lead capture, texting, and booking yourself. Workely does all of that automatically: it catches an inbound lead, prices it from your rules, texts the quote, and books the job in about 60 seconds.
Who should consider AutoGen?
AutoGen is excellent for AI engineers and researchers building complex cooperative agent systems, particularly within Azure. If you run an exterior-cleaning business and want every lead quoted and booked automatically, Workely is the purpose-built choice.
