A practical, step-by-step path to shipping your first production AI agent with a small team: scope one job, define it in config, connect it to your existing systems, and let a runtime handle the rest.
The real cost of assembling your own AI agent stack comes from the integration and maintenance tax between tools. Learn when buying a platform wins.
Run production AI agents in the EU without US hyperscalers: what EU-hosted must really mean, where the US CLOUD Act exposes you, and a sovereignty checklist.
An agent testing framework, deploy gates with pull-request testing, deeper tracing for triggered and child runs, usage and budget dashboards, custom domains for connectors, and per-agent reasoning effort with cascading defaults.
Ranked shortlist of AI agent platforms evaluated on EU data residency, self-hosting, MCP tool support, BYOK, EU AI Act readiness, and SLA terms. Updated July 2026.
At 50,000 monthly runs, Connic cuts modeled full-stack AI agent TCO by 38–47% versus buying and integrating services or building and self-hosting.
A YAML-driven testing framework built for non-deterministic AI agents. Repeated-run pass thresholds, expression-based assertions, custom-code mocking, multimodal fixtures, and a deploy gate that blocks failed checks by default.
Human-in-the-loop approvals, Bridge for custom tools and private services, tool hooks, discoverable tools, AI dashboard builder, custom OpenAI-compatible providers, and live logs from your own code.
Compare 16 AI agent deployment platforms by runtime boundary, language, hosting model, connector ownership, residency, and pricing.
