This cycle surfaced six findings anchored in fresh May 2026 data — the defining 79%-adoption vs. 11%-production gap, SMB adoption stalled by data and pricing barriers, Druid AI's production telemetry showing how agents actually behave at scale, a platform-war roundup (Zendesk outcome pricing, Freshworks AI Studio, Epicor vertical AI), sobering security incident rates with only 23% having agent-specific governance, and enterprise case studies from Pactum/AstraZeneca, Anthropic SMB, and ServiceNow. Three open questions are queued for follow-up on vertical vs. horizontal ROI, governance tooling's impact on the 88% failure rate, and whether outcome-based pricing will reset the SaaS market.
