Photographs
The photographs of people on this site are freely licensed. The people in them are not AGENCY users and have no connection to the project; we use the photos to show who we build for. Each one was resized and converted to modern image formats for the web; some are also cropped on screen to fit their frame. Checked on 12 October 2026. A machine-readable list is in the repository atsite/src/data/photos.json.

Screenshots
Every screenshot on this site is a real capture of the AGENCY app, taken automatically by a script in the repository (site/scripts/capture-screenshots.mjs) on 2026-10-11 from commitbc6e77e, using fictional demo data (“Jordan”, “Thai Basil” and practice services) and the built-in demo agent. None are mock-ups. The network-mode bars and the “look and hold” ring on the home page are drawings, not screenshots.

AGENCY itself
AGENCY is made by Neil Gilani, Rayansh “Ray” Bakshi and Ryan Cho. It won 1st place in the Cloud AI track at the UCSC AI Hackathon, and is built in the open on GitHub. The project hasn't chosen a license for its own code yet; until it does, the code can be read but no license to reuse it is granted.
