Meet Wingman: Emergent's Autonomous Agent That Puts a Personal Assistant in the Hands of Everyone

Your Wingman can do the work of a personal assistant, social media management, sales assistant, research analyst, hiring & more - all the help you’ve ever needed

• Wingman is designed to be secure, private and acts with your permission

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Emergent, the vibe coding platform that has enabled more than eight million founders and business owners across 190+ countries to create and ship production-ready software, today announced the launch of Wingman, an autonomous agent that works across the tools professionals and businesses already use to manage ongoing tasks.

Emergent built its software creation platform on a simple premise: the best technology should be accessible to everyone, not just those with technical backgrounds. Wingman is the next step in that vision, applying the same agentic engineering foundation to always-on autonomous agents. Users can run multiple agents at once, each handling a different area of work, from schedule management, social media management, sales assistant, research analyst, to hiring.

"Most people aren't failing at productivity. They're buried under the smaller tasks that never stop coming," said Mukund Jha, co-founder and CEO of Emergent. "We proved with software creation that the right technology, built the right way, reaches everyone. Wingman applies that same principle to autonomous agents. Now, anyone can have an always-on team working in the background, not just people who know how to build one.”

Unlike other autonomous agents on the market, Wingman is designed with a clear line between what it does on its own and what it checks with users first. Low-stakes tasks execute automatically. Before taking any consequential action, like sending a message to a large group or modifying important data, Wingman pauses and asks for confirmation.

Wingman is a persistent autonomous agent that:

• Operates with trust boundaries, acting when safe, confirming when consequential
• Lives inside messaging apps people already use (WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage)
• Runs autonomously on schedules and event triggers, not just when prompted
• Connects to tools via sign-in, no developer setup required
• Carries memory over time, so users never have to start from zero

Wingman connects via simple sign-in to the tools people depend on, including Gmail and Outlook, Google Calendar, communication apps like Slack, CRMs, and engineering workflows like GitHub. Other integrations are available via an integration hub. No complex permissions or developer-level setup is required.

Wingman is also built to become more useful over time. It retains short-term context, saves preferences and routines, and recalls across sessions, so users never have to re-explain themselves. Tone and personality can be tuned so Wingman feels like a trusted operator rather than another tool to manage.

Wingman is available now at app.emergent.sh/wingman
