Google is scaling agent deployment through an IBM-staffed Google Cloud Practice with thousands of certified consultants and an NTT DATA Gemini Enterprise practice targeting 5,000 certified experts co-developing up to 500 agents (Crescendo AI). The tell here is that the moat being built isn't the model, it's the delivery layer. Whoever controls the consultants who actually get agents into a bank's production stack controls the account. For solo builders this is a reminder that distribution and integration eat capability for breakfast in the enterprise.
