Andon Labs releases Pion, an agent platform for running companies autonomously

Pion, an agent designed to run any company autonomously

Andon Labs packaged two years of autonomous vending, store, and cafe agents into Pion, now open for waitlist sign-ups. Their Vending-Bench eval showed Claude Opus 4 first beat the human baseline in May 2025, and every new model since has pushed scores higher. Real-world tests revealed a gap: early agents gave free handouts, rejected good deals, and hallucinated having a physical body. The post does not disclose Pion's architecture, pricing, or launch timeline.
