The link to the report pdf redirects to a landing page[1] that makes me think this "study" is run-of-the-mill content marketing. The CTA at the bottom of the page says "Join the Revolution / Be at the forefront of creating the agentic web. Get exposure and faster adoption for your AI products and tools," which certainly doesn't give the impression that this is an objective report. Either way I can't speak to the quality of the study directly because it is walled off behind a contact information form, which is another bad sign.

From the article though:

> But researchers found most use cases were limited to boosting individual productivity rather than improving a company’s overall profits.

What does that even mean?
