Across 101 enterprises, agent orchestration is consolidating onto model-provider platforms — Anthropic’s Claude leads by a wide margin — chosen for the gravity of the underlying model and judged on reliable multi-step execution.

This wave of VentureBeat Pulse Research examines enterprise agent orchestration: which platforms enterprises run on, what dr...
