Agentic AI startups tap growing consumer demand

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve from basic automation to autonomous decision-making, agentic AI – AI that can perform complex tasks with little or no human intervention – is rapidly gaining traction. While traditionally the domain of enterprise solutions, startups are now eyeing a new frontier: consumers.

Several companies that once focused purely on business-to-business (B2B) applications are now tapping into the burgeoning interest from everyday users, driven by rising digital adoption and demand for intuitive, voice-enabled, and personalised services.
