“I work in IT. What can intouch do for me?”
One question, asked of a stock install. Nothing here is staged copy — this is the answer the assistant gave, played back.
Straight answer, peer to peer: InTouch replaces the pile of cron jobs and one-off scripts you've got scattered across hosts with something that has a central log, a result code, retry logic, and someone gets paged when it dies — instead of finding out three days later.
Retire the cron sprawl. Every script becomes a workflow with a schedule, full run history, and failure alerts. No more "which box was that on again."
Backups and housekeeping — DB dumps, file archives, rsync to another host or S3, log rotation, retention sweeps. Runs nightly, and the run history is your proof it happened.
Monitors — pair a check with a condition and an action: disk >85%, a service not answering, a cert inside 30 days of expiry, a queue backing up, a mount gone read-only. One message with the number, not a dashboard nobody opens.
Trigger files — watch a path, fire when something lands or changes (vendor drops, inbound feeds, sentinel flags), with a settle delay so it fires after the copy finishes, not mid-stream.
Connectivity built in / installable from the Hub — SSH, SFTP, rsync, Docker, HTTP/REST, SQL (the major databases), LDAP/Okta for account provisioning. Thousands more tools/skills/example workflows on the Hub, installable on demand — search by intent before you script something from scratch.
AI in the loop — instead of "retry 3x and email the log," it can read the failure, retry what's worth retrying, refresh an expired token, and surface the one sentence that matters. AI steps run on whatever provider you configure (Anthropic/OpenAI/Gemini, or local Ollama — free, no data leaving the box).
Alerts land in your InTouch Inbox instantly (push on Android, PWA on iPhone), plus email/Slack/Discord/Telegram — all outbound-only, no public IP or webhook registration needed behind your home/office NAT.
Caveat since you're IT: this is Personal Edition — single user, no RBAC/LDAP/areas. Those come with Department edition if you're managing a team later.
Want me to build one for real right now? Give me an actual chore you've got — a backup, a disk-space check, a log sweep, a file drop you're watching — and I'll stand up the workflow/monitor and run it so you can see the result code come back.
It answered like this because it knew who was asking.
The same assistant answers a shop owner about supplier price files and a sysadmin about cron sprawl. Same engine, same tools, same audit trail — sharpened to the person asking.
The same assistant, asked by someone else.
Every one of these is a stock install answering a different person’s first question. Nothing was staged and nothing was edited.
