Do you know where your AI agents are?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

There is a moment every founder hits. You have spun up agents, handed them access to your systems, pointed them at your data, and watched them go. It feels like progress. It feels like leverage. And then someone asks you a simple question: do you know what your agents are doing right now?

The honest answer, for most teams, is no.

Jasson Casey has spent years thinking about the gap between the speed at which companies adopt AI and the speed at which they reckon with what that adoption actually costs. He is the CEO of Beyond Identity, a company that has protected over 10 million identities, and his newest product, Ceros, was built for exactly this moment: the moment founders realize they have handed the keys to a car that can drive itself anywhere, including off a cliff.

This conversation is a field guide for founders who are moving fast and want to stay alive.

The AI Transformation Spectrum

Jasson opens with a framework that every founder needs to internalize before they ship another agent.

Most companies think they are doing AI transformation. Most of them are not.

• AI Enabled: You turned on the AI features that already existed in your software stack. Superficial. Table stakes. Not a strategy.
• AI Native: You questioned every assumption about how your business is organized. You asked which processes exist only because a human had to do them. Then you rebuilt around the answer.

The gap between those two positions is where most companies are quietly stuck. The board is asking for AI transformation. The team is checking boxes. And nobody is asking the harder question underneath it all: what had to be true about how we work for humans to do this, and does any of that still apply?
