One man released a whole movie with about 40 tools he built with AI

Daren runs his film company alone. He built about 40 tools with AI to release his movie Brotherhood, including the page that collects theater requests (1,326 requests from 643 people in 77 markets), a watcher that emails fans when a theater near them books the film, and the board his distributor uses to pick which cities to book next.

How it works

  1. Builds about 40 tools with AI
  2. Fans request theaters on the site and the totals feed his booker's spreadsheet
  3. A watcher emails people within 25 miles when a theater near them books the film
  4. A board ranks markets for his distributor
  5. A daily call sheet pulls action items from his notes, project app and email

Why it’s worth knowing

One person with no staff built the tools that do the work of a film's whole marketing and distribution office, and fans in 77 markets used them.
