The AI Agent Builder's Manifesto

Traditional SaaS software is dead.

Together, we’re moving past building another SaaS tool. We are no longer augmenting existing jobs - we are creating agents that perform entire roles with efficiency that traditional software can never achieve.

We are AI Agent builders.

We are the founders and fighters who code AI Agents. We are built differently, just like the software we produce. We live in every region of the world. We travel light. Our teams are smaller and our reach is global. Our impact to employee ratio is higher. Our expenses are lower. Our ambition and courage is unmatched. We redefine what's possible in every industry and every role. Yet, we stand shackled by antiquated business infrastructure that fails to understand our reality.

The SaaS business model is irrelevant

AI Agents have transformed software. And anyone who tries to call it “Agents as a Service” ends up sounding like an AaaS. To add injury to insult, the traditional SaaS playbook, with its seat licensing and usage-based pricing, harms more than it hurts.

• Why measure “seats” when a single person can deploy dozens of agents performing complete job functions?
• Why charge for “usage” when our agents autonomously handle complete workflows?

AI Agents have changed how software works

In this transformed world, agents

• Take on complete roles and functions, targeting a market far larger than traditional SaaS
• Use state-of-the-art language models to solve complex problems, making managing cost a priority
• Work 24x7, handling tasks that once required entire teams
• Deliver outcomes, not features, but we lack the tools to monetize and demonstrate the true value of this transformation

The platforms of yesterday weren't built for us. They were built for a world where software supported human workers.

Today, our creations take on entire functions independently. There is no established playbook for how to run an agentic company.

We get to invent a new paradigm. One that provides us with the business infrastructure we deserve:

• Monetization - Billing, invoicing, and pricing models that reflect the true value of roles our agents perform
• Margin - Solutions that enable us to run a healthy business
• Momentum - Financial tools to show our customers the value we bring to their businesses

The potential of our AI agent economy stretches into the trillions. To our fellow AI Agent builders: Our time is now. Let's build this new economy and capture the full value we create.

Innovate, create, get paid.
