Agentic Enterprise Software Consolidates: Big Platforms Push Autonomy While Startups Get Absorbed
Enterprise software is shifting toward autonomous, AI-agent-driven products. SAP (Autonomous Enterprise, Joule), Meta (a new Enterprise Platform led by ex-MongoDB CEO Chirantan Desai) and UiPath (raised guidance) are pushing from the top. Meanwhile AI-security and governance startups are being acquired (Fortinet–Virtue AI, Harvey–Guardrails AI, Tiny–Oso Cloud) and seed-stage agent companies keep raising capital (Dextr, Latitude, Groq). Investors such as Norwest's Sean Jacobsohn see finance and ERP back-office software as the easier area to disrupt. Trust and enforced governance are treated as preconditions for regulated sectors like finance, and AI is judged unreliable for calculations.

Where sources disagree
ING Group
Both facts record the same metric (shares_outstanding) for ING Group at the identical observation date (2025-12-31). FACT A states 2,902,437,688 shares; FACT B states 2,902 million shares (2,902,000,000). The difference is 437,688 shares (~0.015%). This is a genuine value conflict, though the discrepancy appears to result from FACT B rounding to the nearest million while FACT A provides the precise count.
