I think you're spot on with the opportunity and view on vertical vs horizontal - however I think like most AI SaaS tools, the distribution (and hence GTM) would be the moat among the plays possible here. It can't be the usual SaaS plays but more like a staffing agency approach.
Would love you to get more specific here - what tactics do you see people using? Outside of responding to job ads (which i think could be a great tactic at the start), i'm not clear on how people are approaching GTM differently in AI from regular SaaS.
Really good article. The jury is out on this one. The discussion goes back to whether a swarm of specialized agentic AIs working as a cohesive network would be better at solving problems at a lower computational cost than a superintelligent AI. Companies like Aitomatic are pioneering a new type of Agentic AI called Small Specialised Agents. They trained these for highly specialized applications in semiconductor manufacturing and others. See their AI Virtual Advisor here. https://www.aitomatic.com/products/aiva
I believe specialized Agentic AI is the future. A long way to go to get to seamless handover and coordination between various SSAs. We are building SSAs to maximize the lifecycle value of industrial equipment with circular economy. Its a sweet spot for Agentic AI with sparse and disjointed data, as well as simple but domain knowledge driven manual decision making.

I just saw the comment, would be difficult to explain - discuss at length when we meet.

Thanks for sharing, I hadn't seen Aitomatic before, will dig in.
