About Modern Relay

Modern Relay is building the knowledge platform for the agent era. Our product caters a new kind of company: one in which humans work alongside internal and external AI agents, and where coordination, context and trust become critical infrastructure. The platform provides a shared layer of truth where both humans and agents can propose updates, contribute knowledge and trigger workflows. This result in a living, compounding knowledge hub that can be read from, written to and improved by both people and software.

Role Overview
