Agents are starting to touch money. Stripe shipped wallets for agents and single-use cards scoped to individual agents. Robinhood shipped an MCP server that can read portfolios and place orders. Public opened its brokerage to agents. The rails are arriving fast. But the people building with them are still figuring out the real questions: What should an agent be allowed to do? When should a human approve? How do you make it safe without making it useless? What breaks when an agent touches a brokerage account, bank account, card, or wallet? That's what this walk is about. We're bringing together founders, engineers, product builders, traders, fintech operators, and anyone curious about how AI agents will interact with money in the real world. We'll meet for coffee at Il Parco in the Presidio at 10, walk the trails and the water afterward, and wrap by 11:30. No talks. No slides. No panel. Just a small group of people comparing notes, sharing what they're seeing, and asking better questions together. We're building Zap, a layer that connects your broker account to your agent. We've run into many of these problems ourselves and want to learn from others building, investing, operating, or simply thinking deeply about this space. Come if you've connected an agent to a brokerage, bank, card, wallet, or payment flow. Come if you're building agent infrastructure, fintech tools, trading products, or AI workflows. Come if you're just curious where this is going and want to be in the room while the playbook is still being written.
