The Agent Graph System (AGS) from Israeli startup xpander.ai represents a significant advancement in making AI agents more reliable and efficient when handling complex, multi-step tasks.

Core innovation: xpander.ai’s Agent Graph System introduces a structured, graph-based workflow that guides AI agents through API calls in a systematic manner, dramatically improving their reliability and efficiency.

  • The system restricts available tools at each step to only those relevant to the current task context, reducing errors and conflicting function calls
  • AGS works with underlying AI models like GPT-4 to enable more precise automation workflows
  • The technology includes AI-ready connectors that integrate with systems like NVIDIA NIM, enriching API tools with detailed documentation and schemas

Performance metrics: Benchmarking tests demonstrate substantial improvements in AI agent performance when using AGS combined with Agentic Interfaces.

  • AI agents achieved a 98% success rate in multi-step tasks, compared to 24% using traditional methods
  • Workflows were completed 38% faster than conventional approaches
  • The system used 31.5% fewer tokens, leading to reduced operational costs

Technical leadership: The founding team brings significant enterprise technology experience to address common AI agent challenges.

  • CEO David Twizer and CPO Ran Sheinberg both previously served as principal solutions architects at Amazon Web Services
  • Their experience with large-scale enterprise computing informed AGS’s design to be both powerful and accessible
  • The team focused on creating technology that can integrate with existing systems while allowing for future model upgrades

Real-world applications: The system has demonstrated practical benefits in complex business workflows.

  • One benchmark test involved coordinating research across LinkedIn and Crunchbase, with results organized in Notion
  • The system ensures tools are used in the correct sequence while maintaining consistent schema compliance
  • AGS includes built-in error management and fallback options, allowing agents to retry failed operations or find alternative workflows automatically

Future implications: As AI agents become more prevalent in enterprise environments, AGS’s structured approach to handling complex workflows positions it as a key enabling technology for the broader adoption of automation solutions.

  • The system’s ability to manage error handling and maintain context continuity addresses critical challenges in enterprise AI deployment
  • By making AI agent development more accessible, AGS could accelerate the adoption of automation across industries
  • The focus on API integration and structured workflows suggests a future where AI agents can reliably handle increasingly complex business processes

DOE fusion roadmap targets 2030s commercial deployment as AI drives $9B investment

The Department of Energy has released a new roadmap targeting commercial-scale fusion power deployment by the mid-2030s, though the plan lacks specific funding commitments and relies on scientific breakthroughs that have eluded researchers for decades. The strategy emphasizes public-private partnerships and positions AI as both a research tool and motivation for developing fusion energy to meet data centers' growing electricity demands. The big picture: The DOE's roadmap aims to "deliver the public infrastructure that supports the fusion private sector scale up in the 2030s," but acknowledges it cannot commit to specific funding levels and remains subject to Congressional appropriations. Why...
