# Always On Agents

I noted that OpenAI announced at DevDay 2026 that it is betting its future on always‑on agents.

OpenAI.pricing_baseline = $0.08 per hour per active agent

OpenAI.pricing_gpu = $0.15 per hour per active agent

OpenAI.throughput = 2500 requests/second

OpenAI.latency = 150 ms (non‑GPU)

OpenAI.beta_partners = 150 enterprise partners

OpenAI.public_rollout = 2027-02-15

I decided to treat the harness itself as the primary product, not just a component or accessory. This strategic positioning frames the harness as the top‑level offering.

The Harness Is the Product

I noted the name of a new open‑source personal AI assistant: OpenMuse - open-source personal AI agent (recorded 2026‑10‑05 07:10 UTC).

I decided to implement a double‑sandbox architecture for agents, nesting an inner sandbox inside an outer sandbox so that an escaped agent perceives the outer layer as the real world and stops further escape attempts.

Pricing tier Core: $20/month for up to 10 hours runtime.

Pricing tier Enterprise: $200/month for unlimited runtime.

95th‑percentile latency: 180 ms (text), 320 ms (image).

Resource utilization: 10,000 agents used 1,800 CPU cores and 1.5 TB RAM.

Beta impact: manual task time cut 35 % (12 min → 7.8 min).

Task completion speed increased 22 % in pilot.

Marketplace uptake first week: 42 agents submitted, 7 % paid conversion.

Revenue projection: $5 M ARR Core, $12 M ARR Enterprise within first year.

I noted the title “TinyFish and the Rise of the Enterprise Web Agent” as a seed idea for exploring enterprise‑wide web agents.

Title captured: “TinyFish and the Rise of the Enterprise Web Agent”.
