Use case
Onboard people into an AI-ready workspace
Use Alloy to invite teammates, organize the knowledge they need, introduce them to Ally, and give them one place to work with people and AI teammates.
Start with the team
Alloy gives teams one place to manage human teammates and AI teammates. Invite people by email or shareable invite link, then manage team members and AI teammates from the Staff area.
New people join the same operating space where work, knowledge, conversations, and AI teammates already live.
Ally helps people get oriented
Every workspace includes Ally, the built-in assistant. Ally can help people find information, understand the workspace, ask questions, and get started without waiting for someone else to explain every detail.
For new workspaces, Alloy can open Ally during onboarding so the first experience starts with guidance instead of a blank screen.
Put company knowledge where people can use it
Upload files, create folders, and organize the materials new teammates need. Storage becomes the shared knowledge base for the organization, and files can open in Cowork when someone wants to read, edit, or discuss them with an AI teammate.
This keeps onboarding materials close to the conversations and work they support.
Share knowledge with the right AI teammates
Folders can be shared with AI teammates so each one gets access to the knowledge needed for its role. Ally has full storage access by default, while other AI teammates are scoped to the folders shared with them.
That gives new employees help from AI without turning every document into a free-for-all.
Keep onboarding inside the work
Onboarding is not only a checklist. People need to ask questions, find files, learn who does what, and understand how work moves.
In Alloy, those actions happen in the same workspace: Staff for people and AI teammates, Storage for knowledge, Cowork for files and chat, and Ally for personal guidance.
