In this article, we take a look at the 10 Fastest-Growing Agentic AI Stocks to Buy.

Agentic AI is moving from demo bait to early enterprise deployment, but it is not yet a mature, fully scaled industry. McKinsey’s 2025 survey found 62% of respondents said their organizations were at least experimenting with AI agents, yet only 23% were scaling an agentic system anywhere in the business, and in any single function, no more than 10% reported scaled deployment. That puts the industry in an awkward adolescence: fast uptake, uneven real-world penetration.

The growth rate is still strong. Deloitte reported that worker access to AI rose 50% in 2025, and that the number of companies with at least 40% of AI projects in production is expected to double within six months. It also said agentic AI usage is poised to rise sharply over the next two years.

The catch is that the hard part is no longer “can it do something cool?” but “can it do useful work without causing headaches?” McKinsey’s 2026 trust survey said nearly two-thirds of respondents saw security and risk concerns as the top barrier to scaling agentic AI, while 74% cited inaccuracy and 72% cybersecurity as major risks. Deloitte likewise found that only one in five companies had mature governance for autonomous AI agents.

So the outlook is strong, but not magical. The sector looks headed for real growth, especially in IT, knowledge management, and workflow-heavy enterprise software, yet the winners will probably be the firms that solve reliability, governance, and workflow redesign first.

10. Freshworks Inc. (NASDAQ: FRSH)

Freshworks Inc. (NASDAQ: FRSH) is one of the fastest-growing agentic AI stocks to buy.

A current read on our thesis for the stocks came on March 4, 2026, when management said at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference that Freshworks’ employee-experience business had surpassed $500 million in ARR and was growing 20% year over year in constant currency. Management also said AI adoption had reached 8,000 customers contributing more than $25 million in ARR, and argued that AI products are becoming a growth driver across the platform rather than just a defensive add-on.

A product-level signal came two days earlier, when Freshworks updated its documentation around Agentic Workflows, including support for business-hours conditions. Its current Freddy AI Agent materials also highlight 50+ agentic workflows and integrations with systems such as Shopify, Stripe, PayPal, and FedEx, showing that the company is still building out more autonomous, workflow-aware tools rather than stopping at basic copilots.

Earlier, on February 10, 2026, Freshworks reported fourth-quarter revenue of $222.7 million, up 14% year over year, while full-year revenue rose 16% to $838.8 million. It also swung to full-year GAAP operating income of $13.2 million from a loss in 2024, finally putting some meat on the bones of its growth story, rather than the usual SaaS promise soup.

Freshworks Inc. (NASDAQ:FRSH) provides customer and employee service software, with Freddy AI embedded across support and IT workflows.

9. UiPath Inc. (NYSE: PATH)

UiPath Inc. (NYSE: PATH) is one of the fastest-growing agentic AI stocks to buy. UiPath’s latest results gave that growth case some actual muscle. On March 12, 2026, the company expanded alliance with Deloitte to launch Agentic ERP, built around UiPath Maestro and Agent Builder. The offering is aimed at high-friction ERP workflows such as record-to-report, source-to-pay, and lead-to-cash, with UiPath saying the goal is to reduce manual work and push enterprises from assisted automation toward more autonomous execution at scale. That matters because it ties the agentic AI story to real enterprise process budgets instead of vague demo-land fairy dust.

A day earlier, the company had reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue of $481 million, up 14% year over year, while annual recurring revenue reached $1.853 billion, up 11%. Full-year revenue rose 13% to $1.611 billion, and UiPath posted full-year GAAP operating income of $57 million, its first year of GAAP profitability. Management said enterprises are moving from AI experimentation toward scaled deployment and argued that UiPath’s mix of deterministic automation, agentic AI, and orchestration gives it a practical execution layer for complex workflows.

UiPath Inc. (NYSE:PATH) provides enterprise automation software that combines robotic process automation, AI, and orchestration tools to help organizations automate and manage business processes at scale.
