Episode notes

Software licensing is being rewritten for AI agents that act autonomously. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down how Fortune 500 procurement teams are shifting from per-seat to per-agent pricing, why usage-based metering is becoming the norm, and how contract negotiations are changing when the 'user' is a bot. They dig into a recent benchmark showing that 60 percent of enterprise software buyers now negotiate agent-specific terms, and they look at the rise of 'agent capacity units' as a new unit of consumption. If you're in procurement, IT, or software sales, this episode gives you a concrete look at the new language of enterprise licensing. #AIagents #SoftwareLicensing #EnterpriseSoftware #Procurement #Fortune500 #B2BSales #TechNegotiation #UsageBasedPricing #AIContracts #BusinessTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechPodcast #SaaS #VendorManagement #ITProcurement #DigitalTransformation #AIStrategy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
