    Why AgentEng Is Different

    A one-day, single-track conference of ten technical sessions, for the people who design, build, and operate agent systems.

    Why this one is truly yours

    Most agent conferences answer to sponsors. Their programme is shaped by booths, paid talk slots and vendor pressure, with hundreds of people deciding what gets on stage. We don't have any of that. One organiser curated every talk for one reason only: what engineers building agents actually need to hear. Your ticket paid for the day, so the day belongs to you.

    --engineering-first

    Engineering-First

    The day is technical talks on systems, architecture, and engineering trade-offs.

    --discipline-led

    Discipline-Led Agenda

    The programme is built around the engineering behind agents: context, harness, memory, evals, inference, protocols, and code.

    --learning-first

    Learning Day, Not a Trade Show

    This founder edition did not take a founding or title sponsorship. The day stayed focused on technical talks, with companies helping on food, drinks, and recording in return for a shoutout and community visibility.

    --attendee-led

    Attendee-Led

    A room of engineers, researchers, and technical leads working on agent systems.

    Program Themes

    A curated technical program, built around deep system walkthroughs, practical lessons, and hard engineering trade-offs.

    agenteng tools --discipline eval

    Agent Optimization

    Automatically optimize agents across all layers: prompts, RAG, protocols, memory, and context.

    agenteng tools --discipline protocol

    Agent Experience (AX)

    Designing machine-readable interfaces, environments, and feedback loops that shape Agent Experience.

    agenteng tools --discipline code

    Agentic Coding

    How software development evolves as agents become first-class contributors to the SDLC.
