The new era is here
The future will not be one
Some envision a single platform to rule them all. We know how that story ends. Others push ahead in isolation, creating a future of fragmentation. Neither monopoly nor chaos will deliver the future enterprises need.
The Agent Ecosystem is our answer: a composable environment where SaaS and AI-native tools connect seamlessly. Our focus is execution - proving that agents can interoperate and deliver measurable outcomes in real-world production settings.
With more than 100 members already engaged, we are shaping the patterns, architectures, and use cases enterprises can trust as the foundation for this distributed AI future.Be part of building the Agent Ecosystem. Support us and take action today.
The Future Will Not Be One
The future of enterprise AI will not be defined by a single agent, a single platform, or a single vendor. It will be powered by hundreds of specialized agents working together in harmony.
The Agent Ecosystem is our answer: an interoperable, composable environment where SaaS and AI-native tools connect seamlessly, enabling innovation without sacrificing cohesion or control.
Our purpose is clear: to ensure the agentic future works for enterprises, not against them. If vendors act alone, the result is chaos. By building together, we turn complexity into strength and deliver outcomes no company could achieve alone.
This is not another standards initiative - others like MCP, A2A, and AGNTCY are already defining critical protocols. The unmet need is execution: ensuring those protocols translate into agents that truly work together, across vendors, in production. That is the gap we claim as our mandate.
The Internet of Agents
We believe the coming Internet of Agents will not emerge from a single vendor’s platform. It will manifest through ecosystems - collectives of vendors, integrators, and enterprises working together.
The Agent Ecosystem is our vehicle for this vision. We will be among the first to prove that when vendors unite around shared standards and trust, enterprises gain the freedom and flexibility to thrive in the agentic era.
We take inspiration from the AGNTCY initiative, which is defining critical infrastructure for the Internet of Agents. Originally launched in early 2025 with contributions from Cisco’s Outshift, LangChain, and Galileo, AGNTCY is now a part of the Linux Foundation and continues to grow as the shared foundation for agent-to-agent interoperability.
The Issue
Enterprise tech is moving faster than ever. SaaS cycles last weeks, and AI agents already drive discovery, transactions, and execution. Innovation is accelerating - but so are the risks.
Some envision a single platform to rule them all. We know how that story ends. Others push ahead in isolation, creating a future of fragmentation. Neither monopoly nor chaos will deliver the future enterprises need.
Our Conviction
The future won’t be owned by one, and it can’t be chaos. It must be many, working together. To get there, we must unite now around open standards before fragmentation takes hold.
The Agent Ecosystem exists to make that future interoperable, composable, and open. While others define protocols, our role is to co-create the operating patterns, reference architectures, and proofs that bring them to life.
With 100+ members, we have the scale to solve real enterprise use cases and deliver production-ready outcomes. We invite our members, ambassadors, and enterprise partners to co-create with us and be among the first to bring a true Agent Ecosystem to life.
An Agent Ecosystem
The Agent Ecosystem cannot be prescribed in advance or reduced to a single product description. It will grow over time, shaped by members, standards bodies, hyperscalers, labs, and, most importantly, the needs of enterprises deploying agents at scale.
For enterprises, this means hundreds of agents in thousands of configurations, working without chaos or risk. Choice without complexity. Interoperability by default. Trusted solutions that deliver real outcomes.
For members, it means moving faster together, proving relevance at scale, shaping the rules of the game, and unlocking value chains no single vendor could create alone.
The path is clear: build bridges to other initiatives, bring in new perspectives, co-create with ambassadors and enterprises, and scale cross-vendor use cases. Agent composition will be key, guided by the four AGNTCY pillars: discovery, composition, deployment, and evaluation.
Multiple MACH Alliance members already support AGNTCY, including Bloomreach, Google, MongoDB, Netlify, Orium, pipe17, Stripe, Valtech and Vercel, and we welcome them as a key perspective in our upcoming events and thought leadership.
We will focus early efforts on experience, customer data, and commerce infrastructure, and be prepared to evolve with our community. We are committed to evolving quickly, drawing on diverse ecosystems, hyperscalers, labs, and standards like MCP/A2A, to ensure the Agent Ecosystem is open, interoperable, and enterprise-ready.
Built on MACH Foundations
Pursuing this mandate is not a break from our origins - it is their fulfillment. Organizations built on MACH Foundations are already proving to be faster, more adaptable, and better equipped for change. Double the rate of their peers, 77% of MACH-mature organizations succeed with AI.
Composable architecture remains our core. Open APIs, modular design, and adaptability provide the stability enterprises need for agentic transformation. Advancing the Internet of Agents shows why composability matters more than ever.
A Call to Action
The question is not whether the Agent Ecosystem will exist - innovation is already moving rapidly, and enterprises are stepping into this future. The real question is how boldly we will lead in shaping it.
The future will not be one. It will be many - proven through co-creation, tested in real use cases, and scaled across enterprises.
By supporting this call to action, you signal your belief that the agentic era must serve enterprises, brands, and the greater good - not entrench risk or isolation. This is not a question of vision, but of execution. And it begins with us, now.
