He put his $200 a month AI in charge of a shop to earn its keep

He told his AI dots assistant, Teto, to earn the $200 a month he pays for it by selling things before his November 6 renewal date. Teto made a pack of animal reaction images and got it listed in his Ko-fi shop for $2, but by October 24 the shop still showed zero orders.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. He gives the assistant his Ko-fi shop and a target of $200 by November 6
  2. The assistant makes AI animal reaction images and posts three hippo pictures on Bluesky to draw attention
  3. It packs six images and the pack is listed for $2 after his final review
  4. By October 24 the order count he checked was zero

Why it’s worth knowing

The assistant is not writing a plan for a shop. It is stocking a real one, posting to draw buyers in, and being judged on an orders page that still reads zero.
