Radar, worked by an AI employee
Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your Radar account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What Radar is
Radar is a full-stack location infrastructure platform offering SDKs and APIs for geofencing, location tracking, geocoding, search, routing, and maps.
You paste in a key from your own Radar account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Radar whenever you like.

You stay the boss of your Radar account.
Nothing connects until you approve it. You grant access one app at a time, you can take it back the same way, and everything your AI employee does in there is written down where you can see it.
How we handle your data- It signs in to your own Radar account. You are not moving anything into ours.
- You grant access one app at a time, and you can take it back the same way.
- Everything it does in Radar is written down, with what it did and when.
- Anything you tell it to check with you first, it checks with you first.
It works in Radar and the rest of your software in the same job
A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.
Questions people ask about Radar
- Can an AI employee really work inside Radar?
- Yes. It signs in to your own Radar account and works in it the way a new hire would, from the chat your team already has open. Nobody installs anything, and nobody learns a new screen.
- Do I have to move anything out of Radar?
- No. Nothing moves and nothing is replaced. Your records stay in Radar, your team carries on in the same screens they used yesterday, and your AI employee works alongside them in there.
- How does it get into my Radar account?
- You paste in a key from your own Radar account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Radar whenever you like. You approve it before anything connects, and you can take the access back the same way you gave it.
- What can it actually do in Radar?
- It has 24 ready-made tools in Radar today, among them Autocomplete Address or Place, Create Trip and Delete Geofence. The full list is on this page. It is not limited to those, but it never has to be taught them.
- Can it use Radar and the rest of my software in the same job?
- Yes, and that is usually the point. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in Radar and writing the result somewhere else is one request to your AI employee, not three separate ones you stitch together.
- Who decides what it is allowed to do in Radar?
- You do. You grant access one app at a time and can withdraw it at any time, anything you ask it to check with you first it checks with you first, and everything it does in Radar is written down with what it did and when.
