The AI agent business playbook: hunt fragmented markets with messy pricing
sujingshen · x · 2026-10-09
A quoted post lays out an AI agent business idea: target industries where shipping is a pain and pricing is all over the place — frozen goods, oversized items, weirdly shaped stuff, live things like fish and chickens — where hundreds of tiny sellers run ugly websites with no two prices alike. Nobody will manually comparison-shop 200 of them, but an AI agent can do it in minutes. The poster adds that prime spots in hot sectors are taken, and he prefers messy, fragmented categories where software genuinely helps.
