Agentic traffic wave: under 1% of consumers use agents today — and almost no business is ready

Omooretweets argues that agentic traffic is a massive wave almost no business is prepared for:
- Under 1% of consumers use AI agents today, but that will change fast and usher in a new era of consumer demand
- Businesses face new operational challenges: how do you handle 5x the inbound calls, qualify 10,000 new leads, or fulfill 500 new orders?
His core point: agents aren't just another marketing channel shift — they restructure where demand comes from, requiring companies to rebuild intake, lead qualification, and fulfillment for the agent era.
