Why Your Backend Will Break When AI Agents Go to Production

Late 2025, everyone was building AI agents. Agentic workflows were the buzzword at every conference, every pitch deck, every demo day. But here's what nobody talks about: over 90% of AI agents are still stuck in pilot mode.

Just Life Update #10 — The Pivot

Is it really possible for a bunch of Bhutanese students with no perfect plan to build a global AI company? I don't know. But we're trying anyway. Over the past 6 weeks, we have been on quite a ride.

JUST LIFE UPDATE #9

I left Jam Jamphel Yigzin Samdrup and Kzee Kuenzang Namgyel unsupervised for ONE NIGHT… just one night. I go to bed early, feeling proud of myself for finally being responsible. Then I wake up, and suddenly it feels like I've joined a completely new startup that I definitely did not sign up for.

JUST LIFE UPDATE #8 — From Tools to Truth

Over the past four weeks in Entrepreneurs First, Me, Jamphel Yigzin Samdrup and Kuenzang Namgyel have been on quite a ride from building an AI voice assistant for cab drivers, to a voice AI agent for airlines, to AI-powered AIX tools, then a unified ML platform, and now, landing on something that feels much deeper.

Ideas aren't lightning bolts.. they come from starting points. A few starting points could be a problem, an observation, something that doesn't make sense, or something that's broken.

The last few days, I've been asking myself so many questions that at some point, I started doubting everything. If there were a metric for it, my question rate would probably be around 18 QPH — questions per hour. Super crazy.

JUST LIFE UPDATE #4 — The "Visa-Free" Paradox

Disclaimer: Just a personal reflection — not a political statement. People often say Bhutanese citizens are lucky that we can travel to India without a visa. On paper, it sounds like a privilege. In reality, it often feels like being stuck between two worlds.

Just a reminder for myself, take on the problems of the world with courage, not comfort. Accept that uncertainty will always define the work I'm doing, and learn to make peace with it.
