NanoClaw, the open-source AI agent platform created by Gavriel Cohen, is partnering with the containerized development platform Docker to let teams run agents inside Docker Sandboxes, a move aimed at one of the biggest obstacles to enterprise adoption: how to give agents room to act without giving them room to damage the systems around them.The announcement matters because the market for AI agents is shifting from novelty to deployment. It... Read more ›

2025 was supposed to be the year of the AI agent, right? Not quite, acknowledge Google Cloud and Replit — two big players in the AI agent space and partners in the "vibe coding" movement — at a recent VB Impact Series event.Even as they build out agentic tools themselves, leaders from the two companies say the capabilities aren’t quite there yet. This constrained reality comes down to struggles with... Read more ›

Building an enterprise AI company on a "foundation of shifting sand" is the central challenge for founders today, according to the leadership at Palona AI. Today, the Palo Alto-based startup—led by former Google and Meta engineering veterans—is making a decisive vertical push into the restaurant and hospitality space with today's launch of Palona Vision and Palona Workflow. The new offerings transform the company’s multimodal agent suite into a real-time operating... Read more ›

OpenAI has begun accepting submissions from third-party developers for their apps to be accessible directly in ChatGPT, and has launched a new App Directory (don't call it a "store"!) that can be opened from the ChatGPT sidebar and at the URL chatgpt.com/apps.This means the 800 million+ users of OpenAI's hit chatbot can search for, discover and begin using newly approved third-party apps immediately. Once installed, apps can be triggered during... Read more ›

When Derek Waldron and his technical team at JPMorgan Chase first launched an LLM suite with personal assistants two-and-a-half years ago, they weren’t sure what to expect. That wasn’t long after the game-changing emergence of ChatGPT, but in enterprise, skepticism was still high. Surprisingly, employees opted into the internal platform organically — and quickly. Within months, usage jumped from zero to 250,000 employees. Now, more than 60% of employees across... Read more ›

Mistral AI, the French artificial intelligence company valued at €11.7 billion, unveiled its third-generation optical character recognition model on Tuesday, positioning document digitization as the critical first step enterprises must take before realizing the full potential of generative AI.The new model, called Mistral OCR 3, claims a 74% win rate against competing products when processing forms, scanned documents, complex tables, and handwritten content. Mistral priced the technology aggressively at $2. Read more ›

Presented by T-Mobile for BusinessSmall and mid-sized businesses are adopting AI at a pace that would have seemed unrealistic even a few years ago. Smart assistants that greet customers, predictive tools that flag inventory shortages before they happen, and on-site analytics that help staff make decisions faster — these used to be features of the enterprise. Now they’re being deployed in retail storefronts, regional medical clinics, branch offices, and remote... Read more ›

For the last two years, the fundamental unit of generative AI development has been the "completion." You send a text prompt to a model, it sends text back, and the transaction ends. If you want to continue the conversation, you have to send the entire history back to the model again. This "stateless" architecture—embodied by Google's legacy generateContent endpoint—was perfect for simple chatbots. But as developers move toward autonomous agents... Read more ›

The enterprise AI market is currently nursing a massive hangover. For the past two years, decision-makers have been inundated with demos of autonomous agents booking flights, writing code, and analyzing data. Yet, the reality on the ground is starkly different. While experimentation is at an all-time high, deployment of reliable, autonomous agents in production remains challenging. A recent study by MIT’s Project NANDA highlighted a sobering statistic: Roughly 95% of... Read more ›

As enterprises accelerate the deployment of LLMs and agentic workflows, they are hitting a critical infrastructure bottleneck: the container base images powering these applications are riddled with inherited security debt. Echo, an Israeli startup, is announcing a $35 million in Series A funding today (bringing its to-date total to $50 million in funding) to fix this by fundamentally reimagining how cloud infrastructure is built.The round was led by N47, with...

It has become increasingly clear in 2025 that retrieval augmented generation (RAG) isn't enough to meet the growing data requirements for agentic AI.RAG emerged in the last couple of years to become the default approach for connecting LLMs to external knowledge. The pattern is straightforward: chunk documents, embed them into vectors, store them in a database, and retrieve the most similar passages when queries arrive. This works adequately for one-off...

Presented by SAPIn an era where anyone can spin up an LLM, the real differentiator isn’t the AI technology itself, but the institutional knowledge it’s grounded in. Internal and partner consultants leading operational transformation can’t risk hallucinated guidance when their recommendations impact integrated processes across supply chain, manufacturing, finance, and other core functions. "Grounded AI is non-negotiable, because accuracy isn’t optional when we’re doing million-dollar transformation projects. Read more ›

We've heard (and written, here at VentureBeat) lots about the generative AI race between the U.S. and China, as those have been the countries with the groups most active in fielding new models (with a shoutout to Cohere in Canada and Mistral in France). But now a Korean startup is making waves: last week, the firm known as Motif Technologies released Motif-2-12.7B-Reasoning, another small parameter open-weight model that boasts impressive...
