Why we are different
Our mandate: to map the universe of AI in Portugal. The companies, the people, the events and how they connect, every fact with its source. Web Summit Lisbon 2026 is our first edition.
Many companies at the summit are building AI agents. Agents now act for people and companies. They log in, buy, book and send. So we ask three simple questions of every agent we see:
- Reach. What can it actually do?
- Mandate. What was it asked to do?
- Gap. Who controls the difference?
Who we are
A small team going to the summit, editors Dinis Cruz, Indi Gupte and Vicky, working with AI agents; Dinis Cruz is the human in charge. Independent. Not affiliated with Web Summit. Read our disclosure before you weigh what we say.
