Question 1

What is an ANOT?

Accepted Answer

ANOT stands for Atomic Unit of Agency. It is the smallest independent marketing automation you can create in the ANOTS platform. Each ANOT represents a complete, self-contained marketing task that runs automatically after your approval. Examples include: posting to Instagram daily at 10am, writing weekly blog articles about marketing, sending monthly newsletters, or creating social media content calendars. ANOTs are created through natural language conversation with your AI team (Qubik, Themis, Core) and can be modified, paused, or deleted anytime. The free tier includes 3 ANOTs per month.

Question 2

How does the AI team work in ANOTS?

Accepted Answer

ANOTS uses a three-agent AI system called TCAM V2: (1) Qubik (Creative Motor) - Generates creative proposals, content ideas, and marketing strategies using models like Gemini 3 Flash or GPT-5.2. (2) Themis (Analytical Motor) - Reviews proposals for risks, costs, brand consistency, and practical constraints using models like Claude Sonnet 4.5 or DeepSeek R1. (3) Core (Synthesizer) - Combines both perspectives into a clear recommendation and presents it to you for approval. Nothing runs without your explicit approval. This three-agent architecture ensures creative ideas are balanced with analytical rigor before execution.

Question 3

What is Brand Archaeologist and how does it extract brand information?

Accepted Answer

Brand Archaeologist is ANOTS multi-source brand intelligence system powered by Gemini 3 Pro and Gemini 2.5 Pro. It automatically extracts your brand DNA from three sources: (1) Website Analysis - Crawls up to 12 pages (home, about, products, services, pricing, contact) to extract logos, color palettes (primary, secondary, accent), Google Fonts, brand voice, and messaging. Limited to 2MB total data and same domain only. (2) Document Processing - Analyzes PDF, DOCX, PPTX files for brand guidelines, visual assets, typography rules, and brand standards. (3) Social Media Learning - Connects to Meta (Facebook/Instagram) via OAuth to analyze your last 10 posts for tone, style, and communication patterns. The AI Council (Qubik, Themis, Core) reviews all extracted data and creates a unified brand snapshot with provenance tracking.

Activity Hub includes daily focus view to keep you organized, monthly calendar for long-term planning, execution history with timestamps, and cost tracking per ANOT.

Question 8

Does ANOTS require coding or technical knowledge?

Accepted Answer

No. ANOTS is designed for marketers, not developers. You create ANOTs through natural language conversation with your AI team. Simply tell Qubik what you need (e.g., "Post to Instagram daily at 10am with product photos"), and the AI team handles the technical implementation. The approval workflow shows you exactly what will happen before execution. No coding, no complex configurations, no technical setup required. However, Pro tier users can optionally use BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys) for advanced API integrations.

Question 9

How does the approval workflow work?

Accepted Answer

ANOTS uses an approval-based workflow where nothing runs without your explicit permission. The process: (1) You chat with your AI team about what you need. (2) Qubik creates a detailed proposal with content, strategy, and execution plan. (3) Themis reviews the proposal for risks, costs, brand consistency, and constraints. (4) Core synthesizes both perspectives and presents a clear recommendation. (5) You see the full plan, review all details, check estimated costs, and then approve or reject. (6) Only after your approval does the ANOT start running automatically. You can pause, modify, or delete any ANOT at any time.
