This conversational layer is read-tier today, not a replacement for the
autonomous fleet. It can research on demand and act on a card already in
front of you, but it can’t yet search or read Gmail, Sheets, Drive, or
Calendar as part of a live conversation — those stay automated-agent-only
for now — and most write actions still happen through the autonomous
fleet or an approval card rather than a free-form chat request.
What the agents actually do
The fleet is modular — you turn on the agents relevant to your team, not all of them. Typical modules include:- Pipeline Strategy — a daily digest of where every deal stands and what needs attention next, posted to Slack.
- Meeting Prep — a brief before every meeting, pulled from your calendar, past notes, and CRM/pipeline history.
- Fundraising Digest — investor pipeline status, outreach state, and next steps, for teams actively raising.
- Email Follow-up, Market Intelligence, GTM Signal Capture, LinkedIn Engagement, Investor Relations, and others, depending on what your team needs.
The three deployment tiers
Every agent fleet needs four pieces of infrastructure underneath it: a place the agent code runs (GitHub Actions), a Claude/Anthropic account the agents think with, somewhere the Slack app is hosted, and a small key-value store the agents use to avoid double-processing the same event. Who owns each of those four pieces is a spectrum, not a single switch — and, as of 2026-08-12, the default isn’t the same for all four:- Claude/Anthropic, app hosting, and the key-value store default to Gravity-managed — the fewest accounts for you to create, hand- provisioned by a Gravity operator on request. Moving ownership of one of these three to you makes sense when you have a specific reason to hold it yourself — infrastructure you already have in place, or a concrete compliance or data-residency requirement — not as a general goal to work toward.
- Code hosting (GitHub) defaults the other way — to customer-owned. A Gravity-owned repository holds your actual business configuration (your ICP, deal sizes, Slack IDs, content corpus), and a Gravity-hosted default here would mean that data sits in a repo under one shared Gravity credential alongside other customers’ — a security review found that concentration risk isn’t worth the small amount of setup it saves you (creating a private repo and adding Gravity’s deploy bot as a collaborator). Ask your Gravity contact if you’d specifically like Gravity to host your repo instead — it’s still available, just not the starting point.
- Gravity-hosted — Gravity provisions and owns all four: your agents’ code repository, the Anthropic environment, the hosted Slack app, and the key-value store. Available on request, but not the default — GitHub specifically defaults to customer-owned per the security rationale above, so choosing this tier means explicitly asking Gravity to take on your repo too.
- Hybrid (mixed ownership, the default for a new deployment) — you own some of the four pieces while Gravity manages the rest, and which pieces is a genuinely independent choice per piece, not a fixed second option. The starting-point mix is: Gravity manages Claude/Anthropic, hosting, and the key-value store; you keep your own GitHub repo. Talk to your Gravity contact if you’d like a different mix — e.g. taking on your own Anthropic environment, or handing GitHub to Gravity too.
- Fully customer-managed — you own all four: your own GitHub repo (with Gravity added as a collaborator to push agent code), your own Anthropic account and API key, your own hosting for the Slack app, and your own key-value store. Almost every secret you generate stays entirely in your own accounts; the two exceptions (your Anthropic API key and your key-value store credentials) are shared with Gravity once, securely, since Gravity’s provisioning step needs them — see Security & credentials for the full trust model. Appropriate when you have a specific reason to own Anthropic/hosting/KV yourself — existing infrastructure investment already in place, or a concrete compliance or data-residency requirement — not as a default starting point (GitHub, as always, stays customer-owned by default regardless of tier). See Getting started for the onboarding conversation every new deployment starts with, and the account-setup walkthrough this tier uses once you submit it.
“Zero Gravity” is an automated, fully self-serve version of the
Gravity-hosted tier above — provisioning all four pieces without a
Gravity operator doing it by hand, eventually eliminating per-customer
GitHub repos entirely (Gravity’s or the customer’s), which is what
makes today’s GitHub-customer-owned default a deliberate stepping stone
rather than a permanent architecture. It’s still in development and not
yet generally available. Until it ships, choosing the Gravity-hosted
tier means a Gravity operator sets the four pieces up on your behalf,
not a one-click automated flow.
How this differs from Horizon
Horizon is an on-demand enrichment API: you (or an agent) ask it a question — find this person’s email, look up this company — and it answers in one API call, billed per call from a prepaid credit balance. Gravity Agents Lite is the opposite shape: long-running, autonomous agents that work on a schedule without being asked, deployed once per customer, configured rather than called. They’re built and sold independently, though a deployed agent fleet is free to use Horizon (or any other tool) as one of the resources it reads from during a run.Next steps
