My bet for the next six months: solo business owners, especially in markets with expensive labor, may have a stronger reason to pay for general-purpose agents than either large office teams or casual consumers. A freelancer or small online seller can connect a finished task directly to their own income. A proposal sent, an invoice followed up, a customer issue resolved. The person using the agent is also the person paying and benefiting. Inside a company, the employee gets the time savings, but someone else approves the budget. Integrations, permissions, and procurement can delay the payoff. For casual use, the agent often competes with a free chatbot or a task the user can simply skip. So my rough ranking is solo operators first, corporate office work second, everyday consumer chat third. That’s a ranking of the incentive to pay, not total market size. There’s a catch: solo operators have limited budgets and cannot afford expensive mistakes. Enterprise contracts could still be much more valuable. If you run a business alone, which task would you pay an agent to own every week, including checking its work? submitted by /u/yi111
