How to choose an AI Agent platform for your team
Most AI agent pilots fail to transition to production, with an estimated 88% not reaching deployment. The article outlines six evaluation criteria that help distinguish platforms capable of reliable, scalable operation, emphasizing tool orchestration, workflow automation, and human‑in‑the‑loop controls. It also provides a scorecard approach for teams to assess platforms such as Construct before committing resources.
