My latest newsletter -> This week's market signals suggest the conversation is moving beyond AI models and toward enterprise infrastructure.

AWS + Adobe are using MCP to connect enterprise agents, Vercel has launched its eve framework, Okta has published an agent identity roadmap, and Google has proposed an open discovery layer.

Together they point to the emergence of an enterprise agent stack.

The agent stack is becoming enterprise infrastructure

From agent frameworks and MCP integrations to identity governance and open discovery, this week’s market signals show the agent stack rapidly gaining adoption in the enterprise.

In the latest interview for my new blog, I talk to a founder who believes *websites* will continue to flourish in the AI era — which I must admit is a very welcome trend. It's all thanks to an emerging open web standard called WebMCP. https://agenticweb.news/nekuda-webmcp-agentic-commerce-websites/ #AgenticWeb

Nekuda’s WebMCP Bet on Agentic Commerce

Nekuda is betting that agentic commerce will augment websites, not replace them, with WebMCP providing the bridge between agents and merchant-controlled experiences.

The agentic web is entering its execute phase.

AI systems are moving from reading and generating web content, to taking actions across apps, services and payment networks.

This week’s signals show the execution stack taking shape through payments, callable app actions, persistent cloud agents and portable organisational knowledge.

Visa, Mastercard, Apple, OpenAI and Google are building the payment, action, execution and knowledge layers agents need to act.

“Agents do not pop into existence. Someone stood the agent up. A person or an organization created it and delegated some slice of their own authority to it. That act, binding an agent to the principal whose authority it exercises, is the root of the entire chain. It is what makes “under whose authority” a question with an answer. Skip it and agent identity is only a name: cryptographically unforgeable, and connected to no one…The framework never establishes this binding.“ #agenticweb #anthropic

My latest interview with agentic web builders is with Ido Salomon & Liad Yosef, about MCP Apps and the rise of software apps inside of AI assistants & agents. In particular, they're focused on the UI aspects — including now generative UI.

Ido and Liad were among the first people I spoke to last year when web + AI was emerging, so it was great to catch up with them both! They each also have their own separate projects they're working on.

MCP Apps and the Agentic Web’s App Layer

MCP Apps is turning UI over MCP into a candidate application layer for AI assistants, but discovery and ranking remain unresolved.

I like this whole article from Anil Dash, and especially thinking over this section... #AI #AgenticWeb

"The Good AI? This isn't a comprehensive list, but it's possible to imagine some traits of an AI system that could credibly offer an alternative to the offerings that are currently dominating the conversation. (This is deliberately light on technical specifics and is intended for a more general audience, but is grounded in familiarity with the current state of progress on… 🧵 1/6

New AWN market signals post: The machine-readable web becomes a business problem

This week I look beyond the Cloudflare bot-traffic headline and connect several signals pointing in the same direction:

- bot traffic as machine demand
- Microsoft Web IQ as grounding infrastructure
- atomic brand kits
- Salesforce + Contentful
- The Economist’s ChatGPT app experiment

My argument: the web is not going away, but a new machine-facing layer is forming around it. https://agenticweb.news/agentic-web-machine-readable-business/ #AgenticWeb

Agentic Web Market Signals: Machine Demand

Bot traffic, grounding APIs, atomic brand systems, and CMS deals point to a new commercial layer forming around AI agents.
