Spark read 20 to 30 of the founder's sent emails, extracted his two writing registers, greetings and sign-off patterns, and saved a reusable ghostwriter skill. Days later in a fresh task it drafted a PR email in his media-outreach voice without being told which tone to use.
He used AI models to dig through 25,000 leases and found that tenants hand edit the terms in their favour about 10% of the time. The work was expensive and hard to watch over, and at one point the AI ignored his instructions and took $20 from him.
$20
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The post shows a chat where the AI reports the new rate is live: $9.99/mo + tax ($11.29 effective Oct 15, down from $13.46), includes CNBC, no contract, reverting to ~$26/mo after 12 months unless renegotiated. When asked 'so did you save me money?' the agent answers '$2.17/month, about $26 over the year.'
On Oct 2, 2026 a Japanese non-engineer asked the AI to run his note account for monetization; the agent picked the niche itself, then researched, drafted and self-reviewed 12 manuscripts during his 5-hour nap, reaching 42 drafts by the end of the day. It now plans topics, writes drafts, creates header images, registers the posting schedule in Google Calendar and prepares X and Threads announcements, batched a week ahead for his approval. The AI’s own safety feature stopped it from pressing the X post button; he keeps five jobs human: purpose, identity details, the final post button, personal experience and publish approval.
His scheduled the AI scan runs at noon daily over about 15 job sites plus any others it finds, matching UK product owner and knowledge management roles at £45,000 to £65,000 against his uploaded CVs. It drops anything posted more than 48 hours ago, anything hybrid sold as remote, and anything it has sent before, and it checks each link is still live, ideally on the company's own site.
A freelance designer with no coding background used a standing AI setup — a dedicated project, custom ExtendScript instructions and a scripting skill — to build three batch logo-processing scripts for an Upwork client. The client paid $640, left a five-star rating and became a repeat client.
Rachel D. Gainsbrugh (someone, ~3.5K followers, AI/systems creator) signed up for the AI on Sept 13, 2026, connected her calendar read-only, and typed six standing errand rules once — including a 7:05 AM daily calendar scan that flags overlapping meetings or ones falling inside a flight — then handed it two long-dodged errands (an appointment blocked by a flight, a subscription update).
He used the AI API to draft his articles automatically for a week. Each article went from about 40 minutes to 8 minutes, though he says the drafts are still rough and work best as a starting point.

He needed to know if a library near him had outlets. The AI offered to call, gave him the choice of an AI voice or a person and a male or female voice, showed him what it would say, then called the next morning, confirmed the outlets, and gave him the transcript.
His AI rechecks all 31 providers and 89 plans on TokenPlans.dev on a schedule. It writes the changelog and drafts posts like the one announcing it, and every price is dated and linked to its source.
