Three startup ideas connected by one core insight: agents need clean, trusted resources

The three startup ideas Greg Isenberg outlines — the data refinery, agent readiness for business, and expert archives turned into agent tools — are all connected by the same underlying truth: agents need clean, trusted, and useful resources to do really good work. That resource can be data, structure, access, expert knowledge, a tool, or a payment rule. Cloudflare's move to build part of the access and payment layer matters enormously in this context, but you don't have to wait for the entire agent internet to mature. You can start by building the manual version first, selling the human version now, and packaging this up now — so that as agents become more capable and agent payments become more common, you're already positioned rather than scrambling.
