Developers with customer-facing chat products are the ideal customer.

If a startup has a specific flow they want the agent to take and their traffic is bursty, then I'd recommend using a framework like Mastra and deploying onto a sandbox.

For long-running always on agents where it's important to learn the users preferences overtime, our approach is the highest ROI.

Interesting. We definitely have long-running agents where certain preferences are key. However, some of the preferences are likely going to be shared universally across our customers. Is there some way of triaging this feedback into permanent improvements in agent performance?

It is possible to do it (ex: run a background process that analyzes memories across customers and updates the system prompt based on the findings). A specific implementation would depend on your application. Feel free to email me [email protected] if you'd like to talk further.
