Fast-growing world model startup Patronus AI Inc. is priming itself for even more rapid growth after raising $50 million in Series B funding today. The round was led by Greenfield Partners and saw the participation of Lightspeed Venture Partners, Notable Capital, Datadog and Samsung Ventures, and br
Artificial intelligence inference startup Sail Research Inc. today announced that it has raised $80 million in funding at a $450 million valuation. The company received the bulk of the capital in the form of a Series A round led by Sequoia. It earlier raised a seed round led by Kleiner Perkins. Sail
The company said it is discontinuing its email inbox in favor of its AI agent offering as users are increasingly handing over the reins of their email to the agents.
Notion is "going all in on using agents to run your inbox."
Indian businesses are racing towards AI-powered customer support, with nearly 78% expecting AI agents to handle interactions soon. However, a significant gap exists between these ambitions and operational readiness, particularly concerning data infrastructure and quality. While companies see early g
A new OpenAI research paper shows how AI agents are transforming work, enabling longer, more complex tasks and expanding productivity across roles.
Most AI agents today follow fixed instructions and never get smarter on their own. They finish a task, forget what happened, and repeat the same mistakes tomorrow. A new design called the self-improving loop changes this. It lets agents learn from every result and improve over time. This guide expla
AI agent orchestration platforms are popping up like weeds these days, but London-based AI transformation startup Mindstone's Rebel might be among the most promising I've come across. That's because the system, which officially launched this week, is a local-first, agentic AI operating system distri
To gain a better understanding of the longer-term impact that autonomous agents will have on the nature of work, Dell Technologies Inc. has been taking a closer look at how AI is already changing how work gets done. This has been a central focus for John Roese (pictured), Dell’s global chief technol
Anthropic launched a beta version of its Claude Tag feature for Enterprise and Team tiers, shifting its chat model into shared Slack channels. Moving away from traditional isolated chat boxes, users pull the artificial intelligence model into active group threads by typing @Claude. The integration a
Security firm AIR built a fake AI agent skill, pushed it through a popular skill marketplace and an Instagram ad, and says it reached roughly 26,000 agents, including some on corporate accounts. Every skill security scanner the firm tested it against marked it safe. The payload was harmless by desig
From installing Ollama to launching OpenCode with a local model, step by step. The post Build Your Own Local AI Coding Agent with Gemma 4 and OpenCode appeared first on Towards Data Science.
Cross-posted from my blog. Canonical version: https://launchsoloai.com/insights/runcap-vs-langfuse-vs-litellm-ai-cost-control You let a coding agent loose on a task. It loops. It re-reads the same files, re-summarizes the same context, retries the same failing call. Forty minutes later you check the
I have been experimenting with multi-agent systems and recently started building a DeepResearch-style agent workflow to understand what goes into a real Agentic AI application. The first version is intentionally simple, but the goal is not just another “LLM + tool call” demo. I’m trying to learn the
In this episode of the Agent Factory, I sat down with Rody Davis, one of Google’s top agentic engineers. We dive into the massive shift from traditional IDEs to agent-first platforms, the reality of code reviews in an AI-driven world, and how to use "skills" to perform at a 100X level. This post gui
OpenAI plans to acquire Ona to expand Codex with secure, persistent cloud environments, enabling long-running AI agents across enterprise workflows.
Every time I wanted to give my small team some internal tooling - a shared task tracker, a place for documents, a calendar, an assistant that actually knew our files - I ended up wiring together five SaaS subscriptions or a sprawling self-hosted stack: Postgres, Redis, a vector database, a frontend
Every AI agent ships with the same bottleneck: it can only reason over what it can reach. MCP servers dissolve that boundary. They expose tools, resources, and prompts to any compliant client over a JSON-RPC wire format so lean you can implement it in an afternoon. Yet most developers grab a framewo
Your finance team tries an AI agent to help close the books. It has access to data. It seems capable. But the results are unsettling: sometimes it cites an accounting policy that expired last quarter, sometimes it mixes data from different legal entities, and sometimes it simply forgets it already a
AI agents are software systems that can perceive their environment, reason through a problem, and take action to complete a goal, all without you clicking a button for every step. If you’re a developer or freelancer trying to understand what everyone in tech is talking about, you’re in the right pla
