Executive Summary

Enterprises, procurement teams, and CIOs are frustrated by a glut of demo-grade AI agents that lack SLAs, measurable ROI, or integration-ready delivery — they need vetted, production-ready solutions they can buy and deploy with confidence. This pain grows as pilots move into procurement: buyers have low tolerance for experimental demos and need standardized performance and compliance evidence before signing multi-year contracts. Build a B2B marketplace that curates and certifies enterprise-grade agents, combining standardized benchmarks, real-time performance telemetry, compliance badges, and packaged integration/onboarding services (SAML/SSO, APIs, orchestration connectors) with clear pricing and managed procurement support. The product would sell annual subscriptions and services per agent, include vendor-neutral orchestration compatibility, and provide trial-to-production pathways plus enterprise contract templates and SLAs. This is timely and sizable: the addressable market is roughly $18.0B (150,000 mid-market and enterprise buyers × $120K ACV), and improved LLMs and orchestration frameworks are making multi-agent, production workflows practical — buying is shifting from experimentation to procurement (Market Score 90/100; Revenue Potential 84/100). Buyers increasingly favor measurable ROI and guarantees, which creates demand for a marketplace that can reduce procurement friction. You can differentiate by combining rigorous technical vetting, standardized performance benchmarks, and packaged integration/SLA bundles to de-risk purchases and accelerate deployment, plus tight telemetry for continuous assurance. The key challenges are onboarding a sufficient supply of high-quality vendors, maintaining neutrality and trust, and winning enterprise procurement processes — solvable but resource-intensive, so focus on a few verticals or use cases first to prove value.

Market Opportunity

AI agent discovery marketplace to match enterprises with high-quality agents targets a $18.0B = 150,000 mid-market & enterprise buyers × $120K ACV (annual agent subscriptions and associated services) total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 30% YoY enterprise AI software spending (IDC/McKinsey estimates for enterprise AI software and automation demand, 2023-2026).

Key trends driving demand: Enterprises are moving from pilots to procurement — this increases demand for vetted, production-ready agent solutions and reduces tolerance for experimental demos.; Improved LLMs and orchestration frameworks make multi-agent workflows practical — this expands the class of solvable problems for purchasable agents.; Buying decisions favor measurable ROI and SLAs — marketplaces that provide performance telemetry and standardized benchmarks will be preferred over social discovery..

Key competitors include Moltbook, AgentGPT (community projects), Hugging Face Model & Spaces, Upwork (freelancer marketplace).
