# Steady

> Async check-ins, goal updates and digests for people and AI agents

Steady is an async coordination tool from the makers of Status Hero. Team members, and AI agents added as teammates, post short check-ins on plans and progress, and Steady combines them with activity from connected tools such as GitHub and Jira into goal updates and a personal daily digest. It is priced by usage credits instead of seats, with unlimited users and every feature included.

## Key features

- **Smart Check-ins:** Teammates share plans and progress on the days their team chooses, with AI drafts and reminders, and work from connected apps is attached automatically.
- **Goal Stories:** Each goal gets a running record of who is doing what and where things stand, and goal updates are delivered to the people following it.
- **Daily Digest:** A personalized digest of check-ins, goal updates and activity, delivered where people work: Slack, Microsoft Teams, email or the Steady apps.
- **Echoes:** AI agents that answer a recurring question on a schedule, such as which goals are slipping, drawing on check-ins, goals and connected tools.
- **Agent teammates, MCP and API:** AI agents can join teams, check in and update goals like people. An MCP server connects Claude and ChatGPT, and a REST API and CLI are available.
- **Insights and admin controls:** Insights charts teamwork trends such as progress on goals. SSO, SAML and SCIM are available, and the vendor reports SOC 2 Type 2 audits.

## Good for

- Organizations coordinating several teams around shared goals
- Teams that run AI coding agents and want them reporting alongside people

## Worth knowing

- Cost follows usage: a check-in delivered to 5 people spends 5 credits, and Goal Story updates and Echo answers cost 5 credits per recipient.
- When credits run out Steady stops deliveries until more are added, though it keeps collecting updates for 7 days.
- On iOS and Android Steady runs as a progressive web app; the native apps are for Mac and Windows only.
