OutSystems CEO on how enterprises can successfully adopt vibe coding

Woodson Martin, CEO of OutSystems, argues that successful enterprise AI deployments rarely rely on standalone agents. Instead, production systems combine AI agents with data, workflows, APIs, applications, and human oversight. While claims that “95% of agent pilots fail” are common, Martin suggests many of those pilots were simply low-commitment experiments made possible by the low cost of testing AI. Enterprises that succeed typically keep humans in the loop, at least initially, to review recommendations and maintain control over decisions.
