Pay.ai has described its platform as an invoicing infrastructure designed to help software companies as a service to abandon prices based on seats in favor of models focused on AI agents. The seats of seats decrease in industry, and the company said that customers did not want to pay by siege for software that reduces the workforce.
Paid.ai underlined the slowdown in expansion between SaaS companies listed on the stock market, many of which now signal growth to a figure or a pure and simple drop. According to the company, this trend reflects a broader change in labor in which AI agents replace the teams which have once led subscription income based on seats.
The company said that half of the world workforce should be made up of AI agents by 2030, which makes prices by siege unsustainable. Pay.ai described the change as a inflection point similar to the transition from software on site to the cloud, warning that companies fail to adapt the late risk.
The first adopters of the billing of IA agents see income earnings from 20% to 40% in the six months, with faster sales cycles and stronger customer retention, the company said.
