Implications
How agents reshape work, company design, science, education, markets, and institutions.
A clear read on the
agent landscape.
State of Agents tracks the people, infrastructure, applications, and risks shaping agent systems — a forthcoming landscape report, builder meetups, and conversations with the people building the stack.
01 — The report
A landscape report from silicon to society.
A deeply researched overview of the agent stack. Each layer below is its own chapter — read bottom to top, from the physical substrate to the societal implication.
Risk & governance
Security, data access, auditability, identity, fraud, compliance, human handoff, and failure containment.
Applications
Support, software engineering, research, operations, sales, back office, science, and vertical workflows.
Harnesses & protocols
Runtimes, evals, observability, memory, permissions, orchestration, and the emerging developer stack.
Frontier labs
Capability curves, tool use, planning, long-horizon reliability, multimodal agents, and the limits of current architectures.
Silicon
Inference economics, chips, datacenter constraints, edge deployment, and the physical bottlenecks underneath agent autonomy.
02 — Three pillars
What State of Agents produces.
Three formats, one field office for people building with, buying, and studying agent systems.
Meetups
Small gatherings for founders, researchers, infrastructure teams, operators, investors, and agent-native builders to compare notes.
Formats →Report
A deeply researched overview of the agent stack — from silicon to society. In progress now, released soon.
The map →Content
Podcasts, livestreams, briefings, and field notes with the people building, deploying, funding, and studying agent systems.
Stay tuned →03 — Meetups
The details that rarely make it into public writing.
What shipped, what failed, what users accepted, and what teams had to change. Three formats, run for people who want the practical, not the polished.
Builder salons
Hands-on sessions where builders demo what they shipped and dissect what broke.
Landscape briefings
Guided walks through a layer of the stack with the people closest to it.
Field evidence sessions
Operators share deployment results, user acceptance, and the changes teams had to make.
