  1. THE PROBLEM SPACE

The Centralization Problem

Beyond technical barriers, today's agent platforms present concerning centralization issues:

  1. Proprietary architectures: Most agent platforms use closed systems that create vendor lock-in

  2. Centralized data storage: User data and agent configurations reside on corporate servers

  3. Single points of failure: Centralized infrastructure creates vulnerability to outages

  4. Platform dependency: Changes to terms, pricing, or features can disrupt critical functions

  5. Limited sovereignty: Users have minimal control over their agents or associated data

This centralization contradicts the promise of AI agents as sovereign, user-controlled extensions of human capability—replacing technical gatekeepers with platform gatekeepers.
