How Lemma works
Work arrives through surfaces. Inside the pod, agents handle judgment, functions handle rules, and workflows chain them with human approvals — all reading and writing tables and files. People watch and steer from apps and conversations. Hover any piece to see what it does; click through to it in your own pod.
Pod
A self-contained workspace for one team or process — its agents, data, flows, and permissions live together.
Think of a pod as one operating unit of your business: support, hiring, ads reporting. Everything the work needs — AI workers, business data, automations, and access rules — is scoped inside it.
One distinction worth holding on to: every worker in this map carries two separate controls. Its access scope decides what it can touch (the arrows into tables and files); its sharing decides who can see and use it. The Share button governs people; the Access section governs the worker.
