Could Okta stock benefit from the AI agent boom? In this episode of Going Public with Ross Mandell, Ross explores why identity security could become increasingly important as autonomous AI agents access company data, execute tasks, and interact with sensitive systems. Learn why he’s watching OKTA stock and believes the company’s opportunity could extend far beyond passwords and single sign-on.
The discussion covers Okta’s Auth0 acquisition, workforce and customer identity, and the expanding need to secure machines and AI agents. Ross breaks down Okta’s earnings, subscription revenue, contracted business, free cash flow, and improving profitability, examining whether the company can combine financial discipline with a new market for AI security.
Ross also addresses competition from Microsoft, past security incidents, and the risks of expecting an immediate return to rapid revenue growth. Discover why he believes identity and access management could become a critical part of the AI economy—and what Okta still needs to prove.
