A 5-person startup using agents well can outship, outresearch, and outmarket a 50-person company still doing things manually. This isn't the future — it's happening right now.
The Startup Advantage
Ironically, early-stage startups have one enormous advantage over enterprises: no legacy process. Large companies struggle to deploy agents because they have a decade of workflows, approvals, and cultural inertia to overcome. You don't.
You can build agent-native from day one. Every new workflow can be designed around agents from the start, rather than retrofitted onto a broken manual process.
