Basic Concepts

This section covers Noema AI's key concepts and terminology for multi-agent workflows.

Organization

In Noema AI, the organization serves as the top-level entity where all your AI resources are managed. You can manage your organization through the Noema AI platform at app.noema.ai.

  • Workflows and assistants are created within the organization
  • API keys are generated for your organization and required to use Noema AI REST APIs
  • The organization is the billing unit for your Noema AI usage

Workflow

A workflow in Noema AI is an automated process that orchestrates multiple AI agents or tasks to accomplish complex business objectives. Workflows can be designed visually using the drag-and-drop interface or programmatically via the REST API.

Agent

In Noema AI, an agent is a specialized AI component designed to perform specific tasks within a workflow. Multiple agents can work together in a coordinated manner to complete complex multi-step processes.

Data Source

A data source is a connection to external platforms and systems that provides information to your workflows. Noema AI supports 25+ data source connectors including SharePoint, databases, and file storage systems.

Platform Components

Now that you are familiar with the basic concepts of Noema AI workflows, let's explore how the different components work together.

Noema AI Platform

The Noema AI platform (app.noema.ai) is your central hub for managing workflows, AI agents, data sources, and analytics. This is where you can:

  • Design multi-agent workflows using the visual drag-and-drop builder
  • Configure AI agents and their interactions
  • Connect to data sources
  • Monitor workflow execution and performance
  • Manage settings and permissions

REST API

The REST APIs enable your applications to programmatically interact with Noema AI workflows. You can create workflows, execute them, monitor their status, and integrate automated processes into your existing systems.

Workflow Builder

The visual workflow builder provides an intuitive drag-and-drop interface for designing complex multi-agent workflows. You can connect different agents, define data flows, set conditional logic, and orchestrate sophisticated automation without writing code.
