AI sprawl is now the default
Multiple departments adopted “vertical AI” inside point solutions. The result: duplicated spend, inconsistent policies and siloed context. Recent coverage explains the risks and path forward toward interoperability (TechRadar, TechRadar: unified data).
Swfte’s interoperability blueprint
- Unify identity and policy across agents, models and tools — centralize auth and RBAC. See our Enterprise overview.
- Shared context fabric — connect CRMs, data lakes and knowledge bases via the Swfte connectors. Start with our Developers resources.
- Observability by default — capture traces/metrics for every agent step for auditability. Explore Platform.
- Composable workflows — move from point AIs to multi‑agent workflows. Browse the Marketplace.
