BLOG

Welcome to our workshop, not the showroom. At Eigenvector, we build the next generation of Agentic Process Automation for production environments that actually have to pay-off, and Eigenvector Research occasionally publishes papers about why this is harder than the demos suggest.

And this blog is where we share how that actually works in real life. The architecture, the economics, the failures, and the uncomfortable distance between glossy demos and production reality. We write about Process Design, Automation Factories, how to setup an AI-Assisted SDLC and what it genuinely takes to deploy intelligent systems that survive contact with an organization. Not the pitch. The thing itself.


  • Haven’t you ever wondered how an LLM is actually able to ‘think’? I’m not talking about the pipeline, the whole sequential thing of breaking a sentence into tokens, projecting those tokens into vector embeddings, running them through multi-head attention layers and feed-forward blocks until a probability distribution over the next token falls out the other…

    A field trip through the inner world of an LLM we don’t fully understand
  • I write about agentic AI so often that my Weiner (dog), Slob, has developed what I can only describe as a professional skepticism toward my keyboard. Every time I sit down to produce another piece on autonomous agents, orchestration layers, or the seventeen-layer governance stack no one is actually going to build, he looks at…

    The state of Agentic ROI Q2 2026
  • About a year and a half ago me and a bunch of bachelor students set out to interview 177 companies across 20 sectors that we found online who had developed agents to run workflows and published the results. Of course there is definitely a selection bias because, well, would you put your failure online? Indeed,…

    The seven horsemen of agentic workflow collapse
  • An intro to Dutch tokenomics If you are responsible for running an agentification program, you will have learned the hard way, how fragile your ROI is. Even though token prices dropped 99.7% over the last few years, the bills that the frontier AI labs have sent to our companies have tripled, and that is because…

    How to build an agentification factory that actually turns a profit
  • In Greek mythology, there was this guy, Atlas who was condemned to hold up the sky. Not the earth, as the popular version goes, but the celestial sphere itself. The distinction is subtle and mostly irrelevant, except that it captures the exact energy of building a research intelligence platform for enterprise agentic AI that no…

    I’m launching ATLAS: The practitioner hub for long-horizon agentic AI, from research, orchestration patterns to failure modes, benchmarks and repos
  • About the podcast: Listen to the latest blog on Eigenvector while you commute. It is fully AI generated, but still quite ok!!

    Car Podcast: Working on the frontier of unsexy AI
  • Two years ago I wrote my first article about agentic AI†. I had collected 43 platforms that could build agents, I was running Crew AI experiments in a setup where multiple AI instances talked to each other to get things done, and I was so friggin’ excited about where this was going in the way…

    Working on the frontier of unsexy AI
  • I have now written enough about enterprise agentification to fill a small book, and in my mind this book that sits on the desk of some AI person that makes them question their career choices. I’ve written about process selection. The 35% automation ceiling. Agentic architecture patterns. Governance philosophy. And the economics of running an…

    I’ve built an Evidence Factory because ‘trust me, the agent is fine’ is not a governance strategy
  • I know what you did last sprint Lately I am asked to participate in demo’s where someone is sharing their screen, then pointing at a workflow diagram, and explaining with some level of pride pride that they have deployed twelve autonomous agents across three business units in the past quarter. I witness the agents calling…

    The agentic governance debt crisis
  • Enterprise AI budgets are disappearing without delivering results The most expensive sentence in enterprise technology is “we can start the deployment next quarter” and I have heard it so many times that I hear it in my sleep. Sigh. Enterprise AI is eating budgets at a speed that would make an ex 1996 eCommerce bubble…

    Process mining is the strategic foundation your enterprise AI project is missing
  • I have written about this before. Several times, actually, and I done it with such an obsessive frequency that suggests either genuine intellectual concern or a personality disorder that has yet to be formally diagnosed. I personally think it’s a combination of both. I wrote about how AI is actually displacing jobs, I built a…

    The truth is that AI still needs a babysitter
  • Good day to you my intelligent friend! I have been writing about running an agentification factory for the better part of two years now, and there’s this question that keeps arriving, in my inbox mostly and occasionally shouted across a conference floor by someone holding a lanyard and a vanilla sweet cream cold brew with…

    Agents are autonomous except when they are not which is most of the time
  • “In the age of artificial intelligence, sovereignty is no longer defined by borders on a map, but by bits in a data center. Those who control AI will shape the future; those who depend on others’ AI will have their futures shaped for them.” This isn’t science fiction. This is the new reality for every…
