Use Cases in Practice

Let’s explore four practical ways AI agents powered by Runbear—embedded inside Rocket Chat—change the game for modern teams. Imagine onboarding new employees who get instant policy answers without waiting for HR. Picture daily KPI updates delivered automatically to your team’s channel each morning, or team members requesting data charts and receiving visually rich answers on the spot. With Runbear’s scheduled jobs and knowledge syncs, even meeting prep is automated—pulling agenda items, past actions, and upcoming deadlines into Rocket Chat conversations. Teams get more accomplished while reducing context-switching and repetitive tasks. These use cases echo success stories from our Automate KPI Reporting guide and the Let AI Prep Your Next Meeting workflow, now natively available in Rocket Chat.

Rocket Chat vs Rocket Chat + AI Agent: Key Differences

Integrating Runbear with Rocket Chat transforms static messaging into a hub for AI-powered teamwork. Teams move from manual searching, repetitive status sharing, and fragmented analytics to on-demand, automated insights and knowledge delivered natively in Rocket Chat. Instead of switching between tools or running manual checks, team members rely on intelligent AI agents to surface what matters—boosting productivity and collaboration.

Implementation Considerations

Teams considering Rocket Chat with Runbear should plan for a smooth rollout: ensure proper setup of the AI agent within Rocket Chat, establish clear admin permissions and knowledge source connections, and provide training so users feel confident engaging with AI agents. Evaluate your team’s documentation organization—well-synced, current files ensure high-quality AI answers. Balance the cost of additional automation with potential time savings and productivity gains. Address data governance and security requirements, especially for sensitive industries, and communicate the shift to AI-driven workflows to promote adoption and minimize resistance. Strong change management and clear use case selection will ensure your AI agent genuinely enhances Rocket Chat productivity from day one. For teams with existing manual processes, start with one or two automations—like daily briefings or doc search—to build comfort and demonstrate value quickly.
