The engaging talk with Adam Silverman, CEO of AgentOps.ai, began with him posing a simple question to the audience: “How many developers are here?” As a large number of hands went up, Silverman smiled and said, “I love Croatia!” This warm interaction set the tone for a dynamic session, where Silverman shared his expertise on the booming AI agent market, projected to reach $28.5 billion by 2028, yet still lacking a standardized method for testing these agents.
Drawing from his experience, including selling his first company for $2 million at just 22 and creating a tool that was acquired by TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, Silverman focused on the tools developers need to build and test AI agents. He addressed how to ensure agents meet regulatory standards and function reliably in enterprise environments, a key concern for many developers in attendance.
Silverman also discussed practical strategies for debugging AI agents, improving their performance, and preparing them for real-world deployment; key takeaways for those facing challenges in measuring agent success and meeting regulatory demands. The talk reinforced the importance of AgentOps.ai’s solutions for developers striving to build robust, enterprise-ready AI agents.
Silverman continued his talk with practical advice on how to build enterprise-grade AI agents, offering a roadmap for developers eager to be at the forefront of AI automation. His message was clear: be an early adopter and don’t wait for other people`s use cases. To successfully integrate AI into enterprise settings, Silverman emphasized the importance of identifying low-risk + high-impact automations that can be implemented quickly and efficiently. He also stressed the need for developers to carefully assess whether full automation is even possible in the specific areas they’re targeting. By doing so, they can avoid costly missteps and instead focus on solutions that can make a tangible difference in operational efficiency.
Before leaving the stage, Silverman responded to a few compelling and specific questions from the audience, further emphasizing his invitation to anyone interested in joining the AI revolution. With a smile, he reminded everyone that Adam Silverman on LinkedIn is always hiring!
