Builder asks: where is the real paying demand for AI agents right now?

Umer__718 · reddit · 2026-08-30

A developer who has been building n8n workflows and AI agents for small businesses posted on Reddit asking practitioners doing actual client work to map out the real demand landscape, rather than guessing from random Twitter threads.

Three questions: which industries are actually paying for automation vs. just curious; what recurring pain-point patterns show up across clients; and where demand is growing while skilled supply remains thin. He also asks anyone with a working angle to share the reasoning, not just the result.
