How to Build, Ship & Secure AI Agents
Three practical talks covering everything from building your first agent to taking it into production.
Lightning Talks
Build Your First AI Agent in a Day (or Less)
Mariane Bekker — Director of Developer Relations, 1Password
You don't need weeks to build your first AI agent. Learn how to go from an idea to a working agent in a day, including the tools, frameworks, and workflows that make it possible.
How to Build Secure AI Agents
Sidharth Sudhir — Software Engineer, 1Password
Your agents need access to APIs, tools, and services, but they shouldn't have unrestricted access to your secrets. Learn how to build agents securely, manage credentials, and give agents the access they need without exposing sensitive information.
From Prototype to Production: Lessons from Building AI Agents
Frank Aloia — Founding Engineer, US, Dust
What does it actually take to ship AI agents that people use? A practical look at building reliable agent workflows, connecting agents to real tools and data, and the challenges engineers face when moving beyond demos.
