As the AI agent trend evolves, startups like Paid are emerging to address the unique challenges of compensating AI agents. Founders like Manny Medina, formerly of Outreach, have identified that traditional pricing models based on user counts or tasks do not apply. Instead, businesses want to pay for outcomes delivered by agents. Paid has secured €10 million in pre-seed funding to develop a platform that helps companies establish pricing structures reflecting the results AI agents provide, rather than their processes.
Medina emphasizes that traditional pricing models for software won't suit AI agents, as their workload isn't strictly measured by user count but by the results they produce.
Startups focused on AI agents face a unique challenge in determining how to charge for their services, since these agents can operate autonomously and often replace entire roles.
