The Latest Agentic Development

Mark Zuckerberg teased "new agentic shopping tools" that will allow users to find optimal product sets from Meta's business catalog. The announcement follows Meta's $2 billion acquisition of Manus and signals the company's bet that personal context history, interests, relationships will differentiate its agentic commerce experience. Meta expects to ship new AI models and products "over the coming months."

Payments platform Melio unveiled Agent Mel, an AI assistant building on existing automatic bill capture and data entry capabilities. The agent streamlines payment workflows for businesses, accountants, and bookkeepers—extending Melio's automation from transaction processing to autonomous payment decision support.

Property operations platform Visitt closed a $22 million Series B to introduce predictive maintenance and lifecycle asset management agents. The funding follows a year where the company grew its managed square footage by 900% and surpassed 150 customers. The new agents aim to eliminate manual work for operators while scaling customer experience teams autonomously.

Fintech Zocks secured $45 million to expand its agentic AI capabilities beyond administrative automation. Its platform currently serves 5,000+ financial firms, saving advisors 10+ hours weekly by converting client conversations into structured data. The funding will scale enterprise integrations and compliance features as the company pushes into autonomous financial planning workflows.

Limy closed a $10 million round led by Flybridge and a16z to help brands optimize their discoverability to AI shopping agents. As agentic commerce accelerates, the startup addresses a critical gap: ensuring products appear in AI-driven purchase decisions rather than just traditional search. The funding signals investor conviction that "AI visibility" will become as essential as SEO.
