Shoppers can see, feel and test strollers, car seats and high chairs outside of cardboard boxes at about 200 stores, or roughly 10% of the retailer’s footprint.

I counted at least 10 events in San Francisco last night aimed at matching AI startups with VCs. Just another Thursday. But what made Camp AI’s “Agents at Work” event (hosted by Auth0) stand out was its showcase of companies that are in various stages of reorganizing their engineering processes around AI agents. Browserbase, Mastra, Fireworks AI, Drata, Mya, MindFort, and Corridor are all part of the vendor ecosystem trying to enable secure and performant agentic AI, but the most revelatory stories were their own successes and the challenges they faced restructuring their engineering orgs for agents.
