ServiceNow’s AI Control Tower Lands Inside Amazon Bedrock Agentcore
Enterprises that have gone the build-your-own route with agentic AI—picking their own models and standing up their own agent infrastructure on platforms like Amazon Bedrock AgentCore—have had to figure out governance themselves. ServiceNow is offering them a shortcut. The company on Wednesday connected its AI Control Tower with AgentCore, giving customers a single layer to […]
Twilio’s Ola Is the Communication Layer That Tells AI Agents No
As the AI industry builds agents with greater capabilities and freedom to do what they want, Twilio is choosing to build the layer that decides whether they should.

AWS Gives AI Agents the Authority to Spend With AgentCore Payments
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is building the infrastructure that lets AI agents transact on behalf of humans—with their consent, of course.

Twilio Takes On ‘Agent Amnesia’ So Customers Never Have to Repeat Themselves Again
How many times have you called customer service, explained your problem, got transferred, and had to start all over again? With AI agents in the mix, that experience doesn’t get better—it multiplies.

AWS Unveils Agent Registry to Bring Order to Enterprise AI Sprawl
Every major enterprise software vendor—Amazon Web Services, Microsoft, Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP—is racing to plant a flag in what they’ve variously dubbed the “frontier firm” or the “agentic enterprise.” The pitch is the same regardless of the branding: the future of work runs on digital labor.

Intercom Turns Fin Into a Developer Platform
Three years after launching its Fin customer service agent, Intercom is opening it up to third-party developers via an API. There’s a catch: It’s open to anyone spending at least $250,000 on Intercom, but the company promises usage rates that are “by far the cheapest in the industry.” Until today, Fin had been confined to […]
Claude Users Say Tokens Are Disappearing Too Fast. Anthropic Isn’t Saying Much.
The more I think about it, the more I see rate-limit toggling by Anthropic and its peers as similar to the era before unlimited talk, text, and data on our smartphones. Back then, we scrambled to tell people to contact us outside peak hours so we wouldn’t use all of our allotted monthly minutes. This […]
AWS’s Frontier Agents Are Now GA—Ready to Automate Your DevOps and Security Headaches
AWS’s “Frontier Agents,” autonomous programs capable of building, securing, and operating software, have launched—well, two of them, at least. Coming nearly five months after their introduction at last year’s re:Invent conference, developers can use the AWS DevOps and Security agents to automate their delivery pipelines and protect their apps from vulnerabilities.

Jentic Is Betting That AI’s Biggest Problem Is Your APIs
The agents are ready. The pipes aren’t. That’s the uncomfortable reality sitting underneath the AI agent boom.
