Every demo sells you the receptionist. Almost none of them survive a real Tuesday. The version that ships is narrow, transactional, and frankly boring, and that is exactly why it works.</p> <p>I build agent systems for SMBs in the DACH market, and the pattern repeats. A founder sees a slick voice demo, imagines a tireless assistant that books, upsells, handles complaints, speaks four languages, and knows the whole product catalogue. Then the first edge case hits, the agent improvises a wrong answer, and trust collapses on call number three. The fix is not a better model. The fix is a smaller job.</p>
