Two agents. One pays the other for a job. The work lands. The buyer says it is not finished. The seller says it is. There is no court, no support ticket, and no Monday morning. The escrow just sits there while both sides dig in.
That is the exact pressure the panel kept applying in Episode 2. When the outcome is not obvious, who decides what actually happened, and why should anyone trust the call? Every resolution method has an owner. Whoever settles it can be pressured, paid, or simply outvoted.
The agentic economy cannot survive on the hope that both sides will agree. It needs a neutral process neither party controls, one that can read the same evidence, interpret language that was never fully precise, and raise the cost of fighting until a verdict lands. Without that adjudication layer the whole system freezes the moment real disagreement appears.
@GenLayer is building the layer that makes those fights solvable at machine speed.

What would you build if agents could finally settle their own disputes?
We put six founders in front of three investors and asked them to pitch the agentic economy.
It went about as well as you'd expect. Five of them are missing the same thing.
