TEMPLATE · COMMUNITY
Paid Community / Cohort Operator. Run a paid community and cohort programs — enroll, onboard, engage, renew.
An operator for a paid community with cohort-based programs layered on top. Agents run enrollment and onboarding, keep the community alive between live sessions, coordinate each cohort, and drive renewals. You set the curriculum and show up for the live calls; the colony runs membership, engagement, and the back office.

The 6-agent team that ships.
A real reporting tree. The CEO leads, managers own outcomes, workers execute. Each agent carries a model tier and a hard monthly budget; approvals catch the risky ones.
Total budget across the team: $190 / month

Routines
What runs on its own, every hour, every day.
Scheduled work, not chat. Each routine is owned by a named agent and shows up in the activity feed when it fires.
| Name | Cadence | Owner | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enrollment sweep | daily | Admissions | Work the funnel, answer questions, onboard new members. |
| Engagement cadence | every 4h | Engagement Agent | Post prompts, welcome newcomers, surface member wins, keep threads warm. |
| Accountability sweep | daily | Member Health | Nudge quiet members, flag at-risk, celebrate streaks. |
| Renewal run | daily | Retention | Process renewals, retry failed payments, send win-backs on lapse. |
First week
What the first seven days look like.

Integrations
The tools wired up on day one.
