Sierra, led by CEO Bret Taylor, introduced Ghostwriter, an AI agent that autonomously builds other agents using natural language prompts. The tool aims to replace traditional click-based enterprise applications with language-driven interfaces. Sierra deployed a Ghostwriter-powered agent for Nordstrom in just four weeks. The startup reached $100 million ARR less than 21 months after founding and was valued at $10 billion following a $350 million funding round led by Greenoaks Capital. Taylor predicts users will soon complete tasks via natural language without navigating complex software interfaces. However, current AI agent implementations still require ongoing engineer support to maintain functionality. This shift could streamline software use in AECM operations, reducing training time and improving task automation efficiency.
