# Getting Started (/docs/getting-started)

Sift is agentic AI for social and community teams. AI agents read every DM, mention, review, and forum post across your connected platforms, decide what needs attention, draft replies in your brand's voice, and keep your team on top of it all. Your team focuses on the conversations that genuinely need a human touch - Sift handles the rest.
