AI INSIGHT

๐Ÿ’กThe AI Agent Economy

Recent advances in AI are creating a big change, and we're now moving into a new phase called the agent economy.

  • Traditional SaaS relies on point-and-click, assigned user models. AI agents flip this on its head, offering automation and more efficient workflows.

  • Labor budgets are 35 times larger than software budgets. AI agents can integrate into both, driving massive savings and improvements.

  • Low-margin service industries can now use AI agents to boost efficiency, cutting costs and scaling operations.

Why it matters: We are just starting the agent economy, and AI agents will soon affect every industry and job. Similar to the SaaS and mobile app booms, which took years to fully grow, AI apps are gaining traction. With strong investments and fast innovation, groundbreaking AI apps are already being developed.

Today, top AI engineers can earn compensation packages of over $1 million, even for non-executive roles. The race for AI experts is reshaping tech compensation, with big companies like Amazon and Google offering huge salaries and equity to attract the best.

Startups face a tough choice: Spend big or miss out on talent that could propel innovation. However, itโ€™s not all about money - AI experts seek access to cutting-edge tools, leadership roles, and meaningful work.
