AI agent platforms compared — and the event layer they all skip
There's no shortage of AI agent platforms. Here's how the major ones differ, where each shines, and the event-infrastructure gap that every team eventually rebuilds — no matter which platform they're on.
Why automation platforms need an event layer in front
Every automation platform gives you an HTTP trigger and calls it good. That's fine for a prototype. For production — verified providers, replay, DLQ, multi-channel ingest — you need an event layer in front of the workflow runtime.
Why no-code agent platforms need real event infrastructure
No-code agent platforms nail the agent part. They don't nail the event-plumbing part — and that's what breaks first when your workflow leaves the demo.
Event infrastructure for AI agents
Agents are easy to build. Feeding them reliable events and getting their results out isn't. Here's why event infrastructure is the missing layer in most agent stacks — and what it looks like when you have it.
