Inside Arca's Long-Horizon Agents That Run the Business - Aman Singh, Arca

Arca is an AI-native financial services firm where agents don't assist the business, they run it.

Aman Singh, who leads AI at Arca, shows how long-horizon agents own a client goal end to end across days of stop-start work: a signal system that keeps agents aware of emails, calls, custodian events and in-app actions; operational context and a harness to do the work; persistent memory; and shared spaces where agents pull in the right person at the right time. The result: agents prompt people more than people prompt agents, and the firm steers the business by steering its agents.
