PHYSIX OBSERVATION

For enterprise AI agents to truly land, they must deeply connect to systems of record like NetSuite and Salesforce, but the integration complexity is extremely high. Ampersand's funding shows that integration infrastructure is becoming a key bottleneck and investment hotspot in the AI agent race.
