The Twenty Minute VC (20VC): Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch

NOTE

Adept’s CEO on Foundation Model and Adept’s Business Model

In the foundational model space, tier one clouds will invest heavily to ensure their own success, while independent companies face challenges unless they build a significant economic flywheel. Adept stands out by selling end-user facing agents to enterprises rather than models to developers, emphasizing vertical integration in developing AI agents for specific work tasks. Adept's focus on owning the entire stack from end-user interface to foundation modeling enables them to address diverse requirements across different industries efficiently. The variability in enterprise workflows necessitates a vertically integrated approach to effectively handle edge cases and optimize performance.
