# Hops

> A shared workspace for your team and your AI teammate. Bring @Hops into any space and add the tools it needs to get work done.

Hops is a shared workspace where people and one AI agent, Hops, work in the same threads, docs, tables, and connected apps. Hops draws on team context and shared memory instead of being re-briefed in a private chat, picks up routine work on a schedule, and holds anything sensitive for a named person’s approval. Skills teach Hops specific jobs. People install skills for themselves and share the ones that work with their team. Solutions are organized by company size (startups, small business, enterprise), by department (sales, revops, marketing, finance, legal, product and engineering, HR, founders), and by industry (agencies, B2B SaaS, consulting, financial services, insurance, marketplaces, retail and e-commerce, VC/PE).
