Industry Solutions with Agents as a Service (ISAaaS)
Agentic future now — 'Industry Solutions with Agents as a Service' (ISAaaS)
The agentic AI shift is not coming. It's here. And the small businesses that figure out how to put it to work will run circles around those that don't.
GoThrive now offers ISAaaS — "Industry Solutions with Agents as a Service" — a hosted, managed AI agent service for businesses with 1-3 people who need leverage, not overhead. Our first offering in this fleet of services is powered by Hermes Agent (the open-source platform from Nous Research), configured with your first workflows and ready to deliver value from day one.
What you get
Your own AI agent that works 24/7, remembers everything, and gets smarter every month. It's not another tool you have to learn. It's a team member you direct in plain language — on WhatsApp, Telegram, Microsoft Teams, email, or wherever you work.
Think of it as hiring a thinking partner, an operations assistant, a researcher, and a content engine all in one. But without the salary, office space, or 9-to-5 limitations.
What it can do for you
Here's the platform. Now imagine what it does for your business:
- Daily briefings — Market research, competitor news, industry trends delivered to your phone before you wake up
- Client intelligence — Profiles every lead and client, remembers preferences, suggests follow-ups, never drops a ball
- Content engine — Drafts social media posts, newsletters, proposals, and marketing copy in your voice
- Document automation — Generates and manages contracts, quotes, offers, compliance paperwork
- Research & analysis — Digs into market data, legislation, pricing, trends — and comes back with a plain-language summary
- Scheduled automations — Recurring tasks that run on autopilot: "every Monday at 9am, check my inbox and summarise the week"
- Always-on assistant — Ask it questions, delegate tasks, get status updates — from any device, any time
Real example: Property agent
We built ISAaaS for Sebastiaan, a high-end property agent in Pretoria. His bottleneck was time — admin overload, legal complexity, and marketing demands were eating the hours he should spend with clients.
Day one, he got:
- A COO agent that knows his goals, areas, and client base — a strategic conversation partner
- A daily morning brief on property news in Menlo Park and Waterkloof, delivered before 7am
- Client intelligence profiles that capture every conversation and flag follow-ups
- Compliance guard that keeps his outreach POPIA-compliant
Month two, we added a social media engine, marketing campaign builder, and document generator.
The result: more time with clients, less time fighting paperwork. His agent works while he sleeps.
Further features for property agents
Already delivering value? Here's the roadmap — features on the same platform that take a property agent from "has an AI assistant" to "the agent of excellence in their area":
1. Weekly Listings Statistics Report Every week, your agent combines your Property24 and PrivateProperty listing activity into one clean, phone-friendly report — branded with your own brand kit and your principal company's branding. Send it to your exclusive clients and prove, every week, why you're the best agent for the job. It positions you as the "Agent of Excellence" in your market — the agent clients hold onto, not cancel.
2. Social Media Engine Two branded posts a week to your followers: the latest property news and your own view on it, each with a branded banner image. Plus a weekly social media impact report, so you can see what's working and steer your content where it gets results.
3. Habit Tracker A simple daily check-in that builds the habits that grow client relationships — with monthly habit reports so you can watch your consistency improve over time.
4. Mobile client + Telegram status channel Instruct your Chief-of-Staff agent from anywhere with the mobile client — kick off tasks, set reminders, approve social media posts. And a Telegram channel gives you short status updates from your agents as they work, so you always know what's happening.
The value these features deliver
Each feature pays for itself in two ways: time released for productive work (cost saving) and additional business generated (topline value). The annualised figures below use the same assumptions as the ISAaaS value tracker — an agent's time worth R400/hour, an average commission of R18k–R20k per transaction, 250 working days a year.
| Feature | Time released (cost saving) | Additional business (topline) | Total annual value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weekly Listings Statistics Report | ~1 hr/week compiling stats × 52 = R21k | 1 exclusive mandate retained or won ≈ R20k | ~R41k |
| Social Media Engine | 104 posts/yr × 20 min = 35 hrs = R14k | 1 extra lead/mo × 12 × 10% conv × R20k = R24k | ~R38k |
| Habit Tracker | 10 min/day planning × 250 days ≈ R10k | 2 extra prospecting actions/day → 5 deals × R18k = R90k | ~R100k |
| Mobile client + Telegram | 10 min/day task capture × 250 days ≈ R10k | 1 additional transaction ≈ R18k | ~R28k |
| Total | ~R55k | ~R152k | ~R207k |
The figures are illustrative annualised estimates for a typical property agent, built on the same assumptions as the value tracker. The habit tracker and social media engine carry the biggest topline upside — consistency compounds.
What this looks like for you
Your business is different. But the pattern is the same: identify the time drains, hand them to an AI agent that never forgets, never gets tired, and keeps improving.
Real estate. Legal. Consulting. Financial services. Creative agencies. Health and wellness. E-commerce. Professional services. If you run a small business, you have repetitive work that an agent can own.
How we get you there
Simple onboarding, no technical skill required:
- Strategy session — We map your business, identify your biggest time drains, and prioritise the first workflows
- Agent setup — We configure your secure Hermes agent, build your first skills, and connect your channels (WhatsApp, Telegram, email, or however you communicate)
- Training — Two short sessions to get you comfortable talking to your agent
- First 30 days — Weekly check-ins, usage monitoring, fast refinement
- Monthly evolution — Your agent gets better every month. New skills, improved workflows, based on how you actually work
The Value - in a nutshell
- Save time.
- Reduce costs.
- Increase revenue.
- Improve customer experience.
- Eliminate repetitive work.
Pricing
An all-in affordable monthly fee, after a one-time setup fee. No hidden costs, no surprise overages. You get a hosted, managed, improving AI agent that costs a fraction of what a single employee would.
The bottom line
The businesses that embrace agentic AI now will have a significant advantage over those that wait. ISAaaS is the fastest, most practical way for a small business to get there — without hiring a technical team, without learning complex tools, and without the risk of going it alone.
