AI Agents
AI agents are software systems that use reasoning, planning, and tools to assist or automate complex tasks. We compare the top open-source and commercial agents.
AI Agent Vulnerability with 192 Real-life Incidents
Understanding how AI agent vulnerability makes systems fail, whether through security exploits, guardrail breakdowns, or data exposure, has become critical as these systems take on increasingly autonomous roles in business workflows. To map the real-world risk landscape of AI agents, we reviewed 192 documented vulnerability incidents spanning March 2016 to May 2026, drawing on sources.…
Agentic Search in 2026: Benchmark 8 Search APIs for Agents
Agentic search plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between traditional search engines and AI search capabilities. Search APIs are the first layer of an agentic tool, where performance caps the quality of everything downstream. We benchmarked 8 search APIs across 100 real-world AI/LLM queries, evaluating 4,000 retrieved results with an LLM judge that…
30+ Industrial AI Agents to Watch
Industrial AI agents address the limitations of siloed data by autonomously integrating and deriving actionable insights from IoT, controls systems (e.g. SCADA), and connected assets. Some (e.g., Nexus) have goal-oriented behavior, where they actively adjust key variables such as throughput/quality metrics. Others are designed for semi-autonomous tasks, such as fault detection or automated scheduling, where…

AI Agent Performance: Success Rates & ROI
Recent research reveals that AI performance follows predictable exponential decay patterns,35 enabling businesses to forecast capabilities and differentiate between costly failures and successful ROI-generating implementations. I oversaw 12 AIMultiple benchmarks, including nearly 70 AI agents across more than 1,000 tasks. See what each benchmark measures and where limits remain: Web interaction and browser-based agents Computer…
Building AI Agents with Composable Patterns
We spent 3 days experimenting with workflows and agent pipelines in n8n, following Anthropic’s and OpenAI’s guides on building effective AI agents.4041 Explore the core AI agent components, how to choose the right components and tools, in addition to building agent workflows based on Anthropic’s simple, composable patterns such as prompt chaining, routing, parallelization, orchestrator…
AI Agent Traps: 20 Real-Life Incidents
AI agent adoption has outpaced AI agent security: 82% of enterprises now deploy agents, but 44% have policies to secure them,42 and one in five organizations has already experienced an agent-related breach.46 We analyzed 20 real-world security incidents and found that behavioral control and systemic traps (not prompt injection) now drive the majority of critical…
AI Deep Research: Claude vs ChatGPT vs Grok
AI deep research offers users a wider range of search results than AI search engines. To see performance across different AI deep research tools, we are introducing three new benchmarks: DR-50 (Deep Research 50) Bench, which evaluates tools across 50 questions spanning six question types, DR-2T (Deep Research 2 Task) Bench, which assesses tools through…
