Agentic AI Rewires Enterprise Software: Platform Incumbents, Governance, and a Funded Startup Wave
Enterprise software is being rebuilt around autonomous AI agents. Incumbents and large platforms (SAP with its Autonomous Suite and Joule, Zeta with AthenaOS/AIM/Athena MCP, Meta with its new Enterprise Platform) are racing to own the agent layer. Meanwhile, seed and Series A money flows to finance-office and vertical startups (Dextr, Latitude, Dentira, Light), and consolidation continues through acquisitions (Tiny–Oso Cloud, Harvey–Guardrails AI). Investor commentary stresses that AI is better at disrupting around the edges of systems of record than at replacing them, that it should not be trusted with finance calculations, and that governance must be enforced by the system rather than left to agents.

Where sources disagree
ING Group
Both facts record the same metric (shares_outstanding) for ING Group at the identical observation date (2025-12-31). FACT A states 2,902,437,688 shares; FACT B states 2,902 million shares (2,902,000,000). The difference is 437,688 shares (~0.015%). This is a genuine value conflict, though the discrepancy appears to result from FACT B rounding to the nearest million while FACT A provides the precise count.
