    September 25, 2026 · 9 min

    Every agentic system is really nine layers — whether you designed them or not. In this episode, Alex and Jordan walk all nine through a real war story: an invoice agent that worked in the pilot, then paid twelve thousand dollars to the…

    September 21, 2026 · 7 min

  • Episode 1 - Beyond the Demo

    September 18, 2026 · 6 min

    Everyone's demo looks agentic. Almost none of them survive production. In this opening brief, Alex and Jordan ask what makes a system genuinely agentic — goal pursuit, tool use, adaptation to feedback, bounded autonomy — and when a simpler…

About the show

The Agentic Enterprise is a practitioner's guide to building agentic systems — for executives and practitioners who carry the accountability for making AI work in production. AI agents are moving from demo to production, and the gap between the two is where the real work lives. Each week, hosts Alex and Jordan break down what it actually takes to design, deploy, and operate agentic AI inside real organizations: choosing the right work to automate, architecting for reliability, governing with trust, and measuring what matters. Technical enough to act on, never lost in the weeds.
