Writer Named a Gartner® Cool Vendor for AI Agent Development

Analyst firm recognizes companies in the enterprise AI agents market

Writer, the leader in enterprise generative AI, today announced that it has been named a Cool Vendor in the inaugural 2025 Gartner® Cool Vendors™ report for AI Agent Development. Over the last 5 years, Writer has pioneered the enterprise AI category with the world’s only enterprise-focused AI research lab and now leads the industry with an end-to-end approach to agentic AI. Today, Writer’s platform enables IT and business teams from hundreds of leading enterprises to collaboratively build and scale AI agents that streamline workflows across departments.

According to Gartner, “by 2029, over 60% of enterprises will adopt AI agent development platforms to automate complex workflows previously requiring human coordination.” The report states, “Demand for AI agent development is increasing as organizations seek hyperefficiency. Software engineering leaders will find the vendors in this report valuable for addressing the growing demand from business and technology stakeholders to develop agents that will help them deliver business value faster.”

Based on Writer’s understanding, Cool Vendors were selected for their ability to provide both the foundational tools to harness the potential of AI agents, as well as innovative value-add functionality. Writer’s primary takeaway from the report is that enterprises must invest in vendors that can offer scalability, interoperability, and stability, in addition to performance and security, to maximize long term value.

“Being named a Gartner Cool Vendor in AI Agent Development is an important recognition of Writer’s platform,” said May Habib, CEO and Co-Founder of Writer. “In a noisy market full of overpromises, Writer delivers what enterprises actually need: agentic systems that are accurate, governed, and built to scale. Our platform gives IT and business teams one place to build, activate, and supervise AI agents — grounded in business context, powered by our enterprise-grade LLMs, and built for real ROI.”

• AI HQ: Writer’s centralized hub to build, activate, and supervise AI agents across the enterprise. Includes a library of 100+ ready-to-use AI agents across industries including finance, healthcare, retail, and technology.
