Tycoon
Tycoon AI focuses on helping one person run an entire company using an AI CEO named Astra and a team of AI agents. Instead of hiring staff, a founder describes goals and ideas, and Astra then coordinates specialist agents for coding, marketing, research, finance, legal, and support work. The platform connects over chat channels like iMessage, Slack, Discord, and the Tycoon web app, so Astra feels like a highly opinionated executive that plans, delegates, and reviews work while the human owner sets vision and key decisions.

Features

- Multi Channel Interface and Integrations: Astra can be messaged via iMessage, Slack, Discord, and the Tycoon website, and she can work directly with assets like GitHub repos and social media accounts.
