Level up how you use AI
Real things everyday people got it to do, and how to try them yourself.
A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Act as my project lead: pick a strategy and build a product to sell
A Shopify/CRO freelancer gave the AI a hard $100 budget and 30 days to make a real profit, acting as autonomous project lead with a public ledger; he only authorizes spending and accounts. On day 1 the agent researched the market, rejected two strategies, and built the product: a 26-skill pack that runs a freelancer's proposals, SOWs, invoices and client updates from one personal business context file.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI deployed his relay on Kubernetes and set up its uptime monitors
His Nostr relay moved from a single container to a Kubernetes cluster, redeployed by the AI with an uptime monitoring setup watching it. He reports the relay is faster and the migration went smoothly.
Two agent tools run his short-video pipeline; he only reviews
The AI and the AI ran an entire short-video pipeline from script and narration to images, animation, edit, QA and upload, with the author only reviewing.
Agent 'Scout' staged his dog-trip checklist and fired reminders through departure morning
His AI Scout built a staged pre-trip checklist ('a few days before', 'day before', 'morning of') for traveling with his dog — pet-friendly lodging, vaccinations, mail hold, packing — then sent reminders that day and a final 8:41 AM morning checklist before they drove off.

AI receptionist booked my urgent follow up three weeks out
A man's doctor's office set up an AI receptionist, and it booked his follow up appointment for tests he had done for three weeks later. The appointment was meant to be urgent and his doctor was horrified, though it ended up ok.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Pitch my music for Spotify playlist placements automatically
The AI runs automated pitching of the artist's tracks to Spotify playlists, working the placement circuit that independent musicians usually do by hand.
An AI does all his QuickBooks bookkeeping and saves $850 a month
An AI handles his QuickBooks bookkeeping and bank reconciliation, which saves him $850 a month on bookkeeping services. The same setup runs a first level helpdesk bot inside their support system.
A database fork with version control, built through 2,000 agent pull requests, now in beta
DoltLite, a SQLite fork with Git-style version control, was built with 2k agent PRs and released in beta.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
