Agentic Enterprise Software Consolidates: Big Platforms Push Autonomy While Startups Get Absorbed
Enterprise software is shifting toward autonomous, AI-agent-driven products. SAP (Autonomous Enterprise, Joule), Meta (a new Enterprise Platform led by ex-MongoDB CEO Chirantan Desai) and UiPath (raised guidance) are pushing from the top. Meanwhile AI-security and governance startups are being acquired (Fortinet–Virtue AI, Harvey–Guardrails AI, Tiny–Oso Cloud) and seed-stage agent companies keep raising capital (Dextr, Latitude, Groq). Investors such as Norwest's Sean Jacobsohn see finance and ERP back-office software as the easier area to disrupt. Trust and enforced governance are treated as preconditions for regulated sectors like finance, and AI is judged unreliable for calculations.
