AI agents are moving from research papers into production systems — and the teams shipping them fastest aren't writing agent frameworks from scratch. They're using low code AI agent platforms that let you define the inputs, the logic, and the outputs in plain language, and let the platform handle orchestration.
Here's what low code AI agents actually are, how they work, and how to build them without code using Aicuflow.
An AI agent is a system that perceives inputs, reasons about them using an AI model, and takes actions — often autonomously and in sequence — to accomplish a goal.
Unlike a simple AI model that takes one input and returns one output, an agent:
Examples of AI agents in production:
Building AI agents from scratch requires:
This is significant engineering work. Most teams that need agents can't afford to build and maintain this infrastructure.
A low code AI agent platform provides the orchestration, data plumbing, and deployment infrastructure so you can focus on defining:
The platform handles the rest. You define the agent visually or by chat. The platform runs it.
Key capabilities of a low code AI agent builder:
Aicuflow takes a canvas-based approach to AI agent building. Every agent is a flow: a sequence of connected nodes that defines what data comes in, how it's processed, what the AI decides, and what happens next.
Describe what you want your agent to do, and Aicuflow's AI assistant configures the flow:
"I want an agent that loads daily sales data, runs it through my classification model, and flags records where the predicted class is 'at risk'."
The assistant adds the appropriate nodes, connects them, and configures each step. You review, adjust, and run.
The most powerful agents use custom-trained models as their decision-making layer. Aicuflow lets you train a model, deploy it as an endpoint, and immediately use that endpoint as a node in an agent flow — so the decision logic is based on your data, not generic pre-built AI.

Input: Incoming documents (PDF, text) AI: Classification model trained on your document categories Action: Route each document to the correct folder or team queue Schedule: Real-time on new document upload
Input: Daily CRM export (customer usage metrics) AI: Churn prediction model trained on historical data Action: Update a dashboard with churn scores, alert on high-risk accounts Schedule: Daily at 6am
Input: Yesterday's sales data + inventory levels AI: Regression model trained on historical sales patterns Action: Generate reorder recommendations Schedule: Weekly
Input: New data batch from any source AI: Anomaly detection model trained on expected data patterns Action: Flag records that fall outside expected ranges, log to monitoring system Schedule: On every data ingestion
It's worth distinguishing:
Low code AI agent builder — a tool for designing and configuring individual agents. The focus is on the construction experience: how easy is it to define the agent's logic?
Low code AI agent platform — a broader system that includes building, deploying, monitoring, and managing multiple agents in production. The focus extends to reliability, observability, and scale.
Aicuflow operates at both levels: the canvas is the builder, and the deployment and scheduling infrastructure is the platform.
