monday AI Key Features
AI Agents
monday agents are purpose-built agents that process requests, route work, analyze data and update records. Users can also build an agent from a prompt with the Agent Builder. The Pro card in the screenshot lists an AI agent workforce, and agents use AI credits based on task size.
Sidekick
Sidekick is an AI assistant inside the workspace. It can generate content, summarize work status, answer questions and suggest next steps. The screenshot lists Sidekick on the Pro card. monday's pricing page says Basic includes Sidekick, and its help page says Sidekick is free for now.
AI Notetaker
The AI Notetaker joins meetings on Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet, then makes a transcript, summary and action items. Users must connect a Google or Outlook calendar first. monday's help page says it uses 120 AI credits per meeting hour, and unused hours do not roll over.
Vibe App Builder
Vibe lets users turn an idea into a working app, dashboard or tool without coding. The Pro card in the screenshot lists a Vibe app builder. monday says vibe charges AI credits for building, publishing and running apps, so heavy use can use up the monthly credits.
AI Columns and Workflow Builder
AI columns and the AI workflow builder add AI steps to boards and no-code workflows, such as summarizing, prioritizing or extracting information. The Pro card lists both. monday's help page says each AI block run costs 8 credits, so workflows with several blocks use credits faster.
Should You Use monday AI?
monday AI fits teams that already use monday.com and want agents, meeting notes and AI workflows inside it. The Free plan has no AI, and each paid plan has a monthly credit limit that agents, Notetaker and AI blocks all draw from. Check the credit amounts against your use before you buy.
