More agents won't
give you confidence.
You need better agents.
Not more of them.

The industry is selling quantity.
Reliability doesn't add up.
It compounds down.
10 agents at 95% each
give you a 60% system.
Every step multiplies the error.
Every agent did its job right.
The system fails 2 out of 5 times.
And no one is to blame.
Berkeley published the MAST study this year.
It's not the model.
It's the architecture.
Most "AI agents" in production
are workflows wearing a costume.
They get cheaper, faster, and more reliable
when you take the costume off.
What survives in production.
Reliability close to the model's own rate.
Not a compounding decay curve.
Agent Squad is not a swarm.
3 teams in production. Each team with one disciplined reasoning loop.
No handoffs to multiply errors.
3 loops. 3 domains. Not 16 steps in a chain.
Same model.
Different architecture.
Different reliability.
Before approving your next AI project,
run the math.
If the system gives you 60%,
you're not buying an agent.
