Vocion docs

These docs cover Vocion 7.x (main of vocion/vocion-core). 7.2 shows when an agent is working, with one AI colour and a theme that follows your device. 7.0 lets effort pick the model and runs goals as sprints. 6.0 added Routines. 7.3 adds client decks and docs. Running 4.x? Read Migrating to 5.0.

What Vocion is

Vocion runs a company's AI workforce on infrastructure you own.

  • Workspaces hold the work: agents, teams, knowledge, records and rules for one team, client or business line. A workspace is authored as YAML and markdown in git and applied to Postgres.
  • Apps organize a workspace's work. Every workspace has Workforce (agents, teams, knowledge). A workspace adds Software Factory, GTM, Routines or Marketing from the Marketplace. Each app has its own workspace picker on the app rail.
  • One assistant per person. Each member gets a private personal workspace with an assistant that asks the other workspaces for them. Talk is private; work lands in the workspace that owns it.
  • Earned autonomy, per action. Each action either waits for a person or runs on its own above a confidence bar. Promotion needs a record of people agreeing; some actions always wait.
  • Evidence. Every chat turn keeps its steps, tool calls, citations, tokens and cost; every run records the workspace version it ran on.
