Agent Experience Engineering: designing products LLMs want to use
eptwts · x · 2026-08-20
A long-form article introduces "AX" (Agent Experience engineering): designing products that agents can easily use, so that LLMs will actually choose them—an evolution of UX over the next decade.
The author argues the agent is quickly becoming the actual buyer of software, and that the "context architect" role he previously preached is being absorbed into AX. He illustrates the contrast between traditional UI (manual input, hunting for buttons) and agent-facing product design, predicting the skill will create thousands of millionaires by 2027.
