Shipped or Stalled launches registry tracking enterprise AI agent outcomes

Shipped or Stalled, a free public registry built by TribalScale CEO Sheetal Jaitly, is now live with 59 named enterprise AI agent projects tracked by status. The site is meant to show which agents reached production, scaled, or were shut down — and to give executives a public record for deciding what to fund next.

Why it matters: - Enterprise AI agents are often announced with fanfare but rarely tracked after launch. - Shipped or Stalled aims to show which projects actually moved into production, scaled, or got killed. - The registry is designed to help executives decide which AI agent efforts to fund, expand, or stop.

What happened: - Shipped or Stalled went live on Oct. 17, 2026 as a free public registry at shippedorstalled.ai. - TribalScale CEO and Founder Sheetal Jaitly built the registry. - The site tracks named AI agent projects at large organizations and records whether each one is in Pilot, Production, Scaled, or Killed status. - Product Hunt lists Shipped or Stalled as live.

The details: - Every project status links to a public source, including a press release, earnings call or news report. - A project is not listed unless the source clearly supports the status. - Each project page includes a sourced “What happened” section that continues the story after the launch announcement. - As of Oct. 17, 2026, the registry tracks 59 projects: 27 in Production, 13 Scaled, 5 in Pilot and 14 Killed. - Users can submit a new project or a newer source for an existing project at the submission form. - Every submission is checked against the public source before publication. - Submitting a project does not guarantee a listing or a status. - Readers can subscribe on the site to a free weekly email covering every status change and its source. - A 44-second explainer video is available here.

Between the lines: - Jaitly framed the registry as a response to “AI theatre,” saying most enterprise AI news ends at the announcement instead of showing what shipped. - Jaitly said the killed projects are the most useful source of lessons because they show where things break. - The registry says sponsors will be clearly labeled and will not be able to buy a listing, a status or a status change. - Sponsors also cannot remove a Killed entry. - The site says it has no paid listings, no partner listings and does not collect consulting leads. - The registry will rely on sponsorship funding while keeping the status process tied to public evidence. - Two drive-thru voice AI deployments show the contrast the registry is built to capture: McDonald's tested IBM's Automated Order Taker in more than 100 U.S. restaurants before shutting it off in 2024, while Taco Bell's voice AI ordering with Omilia is now available in more than 890 restaurants across 38 states. - Reporting by CNBC and the BBC tied McDonald's decision to accuracy problems. - Nation's Restaurant News reported Taco Bell's rollout scale.

What's next: - The registry will continue adding projects and updating status changes as new public sources become available. - Shipped or Stalled will send a weekly email summarizing every status change and the source behind it. - The site's open submission model could expand coverage if users keep surfacing new public records.

The bottom line: - Shipped or Stalled tries to make enterprise AI outcomes measurable, not just announced. - The registry's value is in turning launch headlines into a public record of what actually shipped, scaled or stopped.
