ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Most enterprise AI pilots fail because companies treat agent development like legacy software projects. Woodson Martin, CEO of OutSystems and former Salesforce executive who led the Krux acquisition, explains why deterministic platforms beat "vibe coding" for production deployments. He breaks down agentic workflow architecture that gives enterprises control over which processes stay human-supervised versus fully automated, shares specific productivity metrics from oil rig safety inspections that prove ROI, and reveals why mortgage underwriting automation hits 98% straight-through processing while preserving customer relationships.
