Agents Will Eat the GTM Stack - AI Is Now Thinking In Pipeline
OpenAI’s AgentKit doesn’t automate B2B marketing — it learns it. This is the first true operating system for signal-driven growth.
Everyone’s talking about how OpenAI just killed Zapier, n8n, and Make.
It didn’t.
It killed something much bigger: the way automation thinks.
For all the shine on “automation,” most of it has always been brittle. You can wire APIs together, sync data from a sheet to a CRM, even build elaborate Zaps. But the moment one variable changes — a new field, a null value, a slightly different naming convention — the whole thing collapses like a Jenga tower.
The truth is that most processes aren’t stable enough to automate. They aren’t robust. They rely on human intuition and correction. And until now, automation tools couldn’t reason their way through those edge cases.
AgentKit changes that.
It learns the process — warts and all — and improves it over time. It’s not just another automation layer. It’s the foundation for autonomy.
From Automation to Autonomy
Automation is linear. It’s about predefined triggers and explicit instructions.
Autonomy is dynamic. It’s about reasoning, learning, and self-correction.
That’s the real leap.
AgentKit doesn’t just run triggers; it makes decisions based on new data, changing context, and self-evaluated outcomes. It’s the first real operating system for enterprise agents — one that can govern, observe, evaluate, and improve itself.
OpenAI’s AgentKit stack quietly redefines what “ops” even means. Under the hood, there’s:
Agent governance and orchestration
Observability and evaluation (Evals 2.0)
Reinforcement Fine-Tuning (RFT) — agents that learn which tools to call
ChatKit — a ready-to-use UI for human oversight
Connector Registry — an enterprise layer for safe data flow
This isn’t a “better Zapier.” It’s a new nervous system for data-driven work.
Why This Matters for B2B GTM and Media Teams
If you run programmatic, ABM, or performance media — this isn’t theoretical.
AgentKit can already handle the messy middle between signal and spend.
Imagine a media ops desk that learns, reacts, and optimizes in real time — with agents running feedback loops between analytics, performance, and activation.
Here’s what that actually looks like in practice.
