About this event
The future of agents are specialized systems for vertical domains like customer support, finance, healthcare, sales, and more. For one night, we're bringing together the best agent builders in the Bay Area from companies like Thinking Machines, Applied Compute, Braintrust, Judgement Labs, and more.
Expect real technical depth and field notes from people shipping agents in production including leaders at top agent startups. All signal, no hype.
What we'll dig into: ♦️ Evals: how to know your agent actually works, and how to catch regressions before your customers do ♦️ Harnesses: skills, tool design, context engineering, and more ♦️ Memory design: what agents should remember, forget, and retrieve, and how to keep it useful over long-running work ♦️ Post-training data and environments: where the data for fine-tuning and RL on your domain comes from, and what's worth collecting ♦️ Lessons from deployment (forward deployed and beyond): what breaks when agents meet real customers, and what the best teams do about it
