What Are AI Agents?

Last update: Nov 13, 2025 1 min read

AI Agents are specialized assistants, which are instructed and provided with context on how to work on specific tasks. Each available agent in SiteGround AI Studio comes with a predefined set of capabilities – this allows it to handle certain topics and tasks more efficiently than a general chat.

What makes the agents useful and valuable are:

  1. Advanced system prompts

Each agent is configured with detailed background instructions that define its role, behavior, and response style. That gives context, which the agent needs in order to focus on a particular area such as optimizing a website, writing product descriptions, or debugging a WordPress plugin issue.

  1. Custom-developed tools

Agents can use internal tools specifically built to extend their capabilities.

This means they can perform actions like analyzing data, generating structured content, or providing step-by-step guidance beyond simple text generation.

  1. Third-party integrations

Some agents are linked to external platforms or APIs. This allows them to interact with other connected services and perform operations that rely on real-time data. Typically, these integrations require user authentication to achieve results.
