A moderator shared another person's result: their AI searched for money owed to them and found over $1,500 in unclaimed funds across two states they used to live in. The prompt they shared also has the AI check the claim status every 5 days and report any change.
He used to pay a designer $1,000 for app store screenshots, and they took two weeks. Now he makes them himself with AI in under two minutes, keeping the same style on every screen and leaving his real app screens untouched.

Every week the AI scans the market and picks out stocks that look like good deals and ones that look overheated. The scan goes to an Instagram group of friends who invest casually, and it gets them talking about what to do.
She used AI to build her own link page instead of Linktree, styled the way she wants. She posts the outfits people ask her about, links the page from her Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, and earns a commission when someone buys.
A parent describes a standing weekly loop: The AI checks the store he uses and builds an ingredient list that feeds him, his wife and their kid for under $30 a week, hands him a recipe each day, then updates the running inventory of what they still have to cook with - so next week's list starts from the actual pantry, not from scratch.
A business ran a seven-agent the AI support desk that cleared 2,384 tickets with a 91% resolve rate for $11.20 in usage, with billing questions and furious customers fenced off and flagged for a human. The angry and money-touching tickets never reached the bots’ send button.

He runs his own small businesses with AI agents. Each job has its own agent with its own instructions file: one triages the inbox, one handles outreach, one prepares quotes. The agents only draft; he approves every email and quote from his phone before it goes out. A brief arrives at a fixed time every morning with the overnight replies, what is waiting on him, and the follow-ups for the day, and it replaced his own daily check-in. When he corrects something, the correction goes into a shared notes file that every agent reads, so he only has to say it once.
