This weekly update shows how AI agents are changing the startup world in big ways. Companies are now building smart computer helpers that can do jobs like real people.

In Israel, startups raised over $585 million in September. Some of these companies are making AI agents that can help with security and customer service. One company called Fabrix says their AI agents will change how companies control who can access their systems.

A big tech event called TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 will happen in October. The event will talk about how startups are using AI agents instead of hiring people. One company called Artisan raised $35 million to build AI workers that replace human sales teams. Their CEO made a campaign called "Stop Hiring Humans" because he thinks AI can do these jobs better.

Another company called Firecrawl helps over 350,000 developers connect AI agents to websites. Big companies like Shopify and Zapier use their tools. This makes it easier for AI agents to work with information from the internet.

A startup accelerator called Techstars shared news about their companies in September. One company called SylloTips raised €4.2 million to make AI agents that work with humans. This shows that investors believe in AI agents that help people do their jobs better.

Security experts are worried about new challenges with AI agents. Unlike human workers, AI agents can work all day without breaks and can make copies of themselves. Companies need new ways to keep these AI workers safe and make sure they don't cause problems.

The changes are happening fast. Experts say the next 12-18 months will be very important for how companies use AI agents. Smart companies are already figuring out how to manage teams where some workers are humans and some are AI agents.
