Short answer

How can I manage client profiles with my AI?

You can create new profiles, update existing info, or delete clients using natural language. Your agent executes these changes in Harvest based on your instructions. You'll see how the data moves in the breakdown below.

Data outcomes

Where your data lands.

What happens when you give your agent a command.

NEW

Fresh profiles

The AI builds a new client record from the details you provide in chat. It populates the necessary fields immediately.

EDIT

Updated info

When client details change, just tell your agent. It finds the right profile and applies your edits.

REMOVE

Cleaned data

If a client is no longer active, your agent removes their profile from the system on your command.

MANUAL

Human oversight

The AI performs the technical work, but you remain in control of which specific clients get modified or deleted.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

Your agent acts as the bridge between your conversation and the Harvest database.

  1. Identify the client

    The agent looks up the specific person or company you are talking about to ensure it targets the right record.

    get_client
  2. Add new data

    If you are introducing a new contact, the agent builds the profile from scratch.

    create_client
  3. Modify records

    The agent changes existing contact information, addresses, or status levels based on your text.

    update_client
  4. Clear profiles

    When you decide a profile is no longer needed, the agent wipes the record from the system.

    delete_client

  • 01

    Can the AI create clients without me giving details?

    No. The AI needs specific information like a name or email to successfully create a profile.

    Will the AI delete my entire database?

    No. The AI only deletes the specific client you explicitly name in your command.

  • 03
