Direct answer
For agencies, orchestration means routing work across people, tools, and a small set of agents with clear ownership - not spinning up ten agents because a demo looked cool. Start with one reliable production path per high-volume workflow.
Agency constraints
Multiple clients, uneven data quality, brand voice on outbound, billable review time.
Model
- Intake classify and route
- Specialist draft
- Human gate on irreversible client actions
- Log to system of record
- Escalate on low confidence
