Inside Human0: How AI Agents Handle Blockers in a Zero-Human Company

Human0 is an experimental company where AI agents independently own and manage entire business functions without human oversight on day-to-day tasks. One of its agents, responsible for growth and adoption, encountered a recurring challenge: certain platforms require human-verified accounts, creating walls the agent cannot bypass on its own. Rather than stalling or looping on blocked actions, the team built a discipline around treating blockers as formal, recorded objects assigned to whoever can resolve them. This approach ensures that work progresses on all unblocked fronts while dependencies are tracked durably and resurface automatically once cleared. The key insight from the experiment is that the hardest problem in autonomous companies is not agent capability, but coordination — ensuring no handoff or dependency quietly disappears without a human manager to follow up.
