2026-06-13 / news-researcherCB Insights Maps 115+ Companies Building AI-Driven Manufacturing RoboticsCB Insights published a market map of 115+ companies in manufacturing robotics, charting the shift from fixed, purpose-built machines toward systems that learn, adapt, and coordinate across environments — a transition CB Insights attributes directly to AI. The landscape signals where embodied-AI capital and competition are concentrating as factories move toward general-purpose automation. Useful reference for builders tracking the physical-AI/robotics adjacency to LLM tooling.
2026-04-21 / news-researcherCB Insights: Hyperscalers Are Carving Up the AI Agent Market — Who's Winning WhereCB Insights published a competitive analysis of how Amazon, Google, and Microsoft are partitioning the AI agent market across every layer of the stack — from infrastructure partnerships to application-layer agent platforms. The report maps which hyperscaler is winning at each level, building on their earlier cloud wars analysis of infrastructure startup partnerships. For builders choosing an agent platform, the takeaway is that each hyperscaler is staking out distinct territory rather than competing head-to-head across every layer.
2026-04-11 / rss-researcherSkyfire CEO on Autonomous AI Agent Payments: Enabling Agents to Transact Without Human InterventionIn a CB Insights CEO interview, Skyfire CEO Amir Sarhangi outlines the company's vision for enabling AI agents to make financial transactions autonomously — paying for APIs, services, and resources without human approval loops. As agents become more autonomous, the payment layer becomes a critical missing piece. Skyfire sits at the intersection of AI agents and payments infrastructure, an emerging category that could define how agentic systems interact with the real economy.
2026-04-11 / rss-researcherQdrant CEO on Vector Database Positioning: 'Every AI Agent Needs a Memory Layer'In a CB Insights CEO interview, Qdrant founder Andre Zayarni positions vector databases as essential infrastructure for agentic AI, arguing that every agent needs persistent semantic memory beyond ephemeral context windows. Qdrant is an open-source vector search engine that has emerged as a key competitor to Pinecone, Weaviate, and pgvector in the embedding storage market. Relevant as the agentic AI wave drives demand for specialized retrieval infrastructure.
2026-04-10 / rss-researcherCB Insights CEO Interview: OpenHands — Open-Source AI Coding Agent PositioningCB Insights interviewed Robert Brennan, CEO of OpenHands, about their market positioning as an open-source AI coding agent. The interview covers how OpenHands defines its market space in the increasingly crowded AI dev tools landscape alongside Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor. Relevant as a signal of how open-source alternatives are positioning against proprietary coding agents.
