Technology firm EightX Labs Ltd has officially launched agnt8x, a new platform designed to help organisations recruit, deploy and manage artificial intelligence (AI) agents through a single operational framework.
Now publicly available, the platform seeks to address growing complexity faced by enterprises that increasingly rely on AI agents developed by different large language model (LLM) providers. According to the company, businesses often operate multiple AI agents across separate ecosystems, creating challenges in governance, oversight and workforce coordination.
agnt8x functions as a provider-neutral layer that enables companies to manage AI agents in a manner similar to human employees, covering recruitment, onboarding, supervision and performance tracking within a unified environment.
The platform is built around five core components. FIND helps organisations identify suitable AI agents for specific roles, while FORGE serves as a private catalogue for company-owned agents. STUDIO provides a structured workflow for configuring and customising agents, and MANAGE offers operational oversight through real-time financial monitoring, audit trails and consolidated billing. The fifth component, CONDUCTOR, coordinates teams of AI agents from multiple providers through a single interface.
In addition to enterprise services, agnt8x includes a marketplace that allows independent developers to publish, distribute and monetise AI agents and applications. Developers can generate recurring revenue when their solutions are adopted by businesses using the platform.
The company said agnt8x is available through three deployment models: a software-as-a-service offering for startups and mid-sized companies, a dedicated tenant workspace for larger enterprises, and EMBASSY, a fully isolated deployment within a customer’s own virtual private cloud environment for governments and highly regulated institutions.
Alongside the platform launch, EightX Labs also released the EightX Agent Manifest (EAM) v0.1 under an open-source Apache 2.0 licence. The specification is intended to promote interoperability by enabling AI agents to operate across multiple runtime environments rather than being tied to a single provider.
Founder and Chief Executive Officer John Shipman said AI workforces are expected to become commonplace across industries, creating demand for systems that can manage digital workers with the same level of accountability and governance applied to human teams.
