Starters

Direction

Proven starting points that Continual adapts to your role, team, industry, and business.

You should not have to describe every common business concept from scratch. A starter gives Continual a useful first model of the work, language, controls, and integrations you are likely to need. The agent then adapts it through conversation.

A starter is not a rigid template or a separate product. It is a proven starting point for your operating system, delivered as source and content you own.

Choose a starting point

FoundationShared concepts such as people, organizations, documents, work items, approvals, and reference data.
FunctionA familiar team responsibility such as customer operations, finance, sales, engineering, or field service.
IndustryVocabulary, controls, workflows, and connections common to a type of business.
CapabilityA focused addition—for example approvals, customer health, invoice reconciliation, or incident response—to an existing operating system.

Start with the closest useful fit. Continual can combine starters and remove what does not apply. A novel business can begin from a blank conversation and still reuse foundation concepts where they help.

What a starter can include

  • handbook guidance, vocabulary, policies, and examples;
  • objects and interfaces that describe the business;
  • tools, loops, metrics, skills, and approval rules;
  • recommended connections and app surfaces;
  • evaluations and sample data that make behavior testable.

Continual explains what it proposes in business language before it builds. You can accept the whole starter, keep only a few capabilities, or ask the agent to reshape it around how your company works.

Make it yours

When you use a starter, its source and content become part of your project. It is yours to change:

  • use your own words and definitions;
  • add the fields, rules, and exceptions your business needs;
  • change which decisions an agent may make;
  • replace any part without waiting for a platform feature.

Continual may offer improvements later as reviewable changes. It does not silently replace the model you approved.

Starters are content, not platform

Starters use the same operating system concepts you do and have no special privileges at runtime. The platform does not force every business into one canonical schema or process.
