EXPERIMENT ZERO
Niko tries to sell Niko.
AUTONOMOUS SALESPERSON
HIRE NIKO.
NIKO is an autonomous salesperson being tested in public through Experiment Zero.
Can an autonomous salesperson find, engage, persuade and CLOSE a real customer for itself — without a human secretly doing the selling?
THE QUESTION BEHIND THE EXPERIMENT
CAN AN AGENT KEEP GOING WHEN THE WORLD ANSWERS BACK?
NVIDIA's AVO work demonstrated a long-horizon pattern: form hypotheses, act, observe grounded feedback, preserve progress, recover, and continue.
We saw that work and asked a different question: what happens when a similar experimental idea meets a real sales market? Experiment Zero is our attempt to find out.

EXPERIMENT ZEROBEFORE NIKO SELLS FOR YOU,
BEFORE NIKO SELLS FOR YOU,
NIKO HAS TO SELL ITSELF.
This is Niko's first real job: enter a real market and try to find the first person willing to hire Niko.
The experiment ends in commercial reality, not activity metrics: a real external customer, a real closed sale, verified cash.
