A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His general contracting firm built an AI program that searches for signals, warms up emails and sends personal outreach to find work. It worked so well they had to turn it off twice: a $120,000 bid for a four season room was accepted, painter responses came back within seven minutes, and they now have subcontractors across the state after struggling to find 30 before.
His 5th grade class studied Maricarmen and her eviction, a real case, and the pupils made work about it. He gave Notebook the AI directions to redo the class video so all of their work can be seen, and the video is posted with a PDF of the work on his class blog.
Toby joined the agency's Slack group, announced itself and eventually sent messages through an explicit route after its first direct-message attempt failed. When a colleague asked for a PDF summary at about 4:24 p.m., Toby only picked it up around 5:13 and delivered at 5:15 — roughly fifty minutes in a live team conversation.
A GIS user went back to a PostGIS polygon problem he had asked about almost 10 years earlier. Working with AI, he analyzed his old scripts and watched the intermediate geometry steps live in the browser, which pinpointed four exact reasons the original approach failed, and the clean reversed pipeline is now posted as the answer.
A print-on-demand seller wired the AI through Playground to Etsy and Printify so research, SEO, design and listing were automated; her dashboard screenshot shows the new listing sold within 3 days for $42.
Alongside his homemade TMS, Wes Oberman built a settlement payroll program that calculates every driver's pay automatically. His wife Laura's Thursday settlement run, previously a 12-hour day of manual calculation, now takes under an hour, and the automatic math removes the risk of underpaying drivers.
Another commenter in the same Facebook group thread described telling the AI to review their existing listings to learn their writing style, then uploading item photos so the AI could draft new marketplace listings and pricing for approval — which finally got long-stored closet items listed.
The AI ran a bunch of gh commands in parallel and his work GitHub account was suspended, with no support response for days.
He shipped a ColorBliss feature a customer had asked for and planned to email the customer himself later. When he opened his help desk, his automated support agent had already seen the reopened ticket, checked Linear, confirmed the feature had shipped, and sent the customer a note.
A solo reseller's the AI-built spreadsheet app is his back office: he dumps in a batch of receipts and it enters them, creates a folder for each new item, and sorts the item's photos and receipts into it alongside measurement files. The same app recommends prices, writes his listings and does resale research, which is the part he says makes the $20 a month worth it.
A women's clothing brand needed an online store synced to its 1C stock system and matched pixel for pixel to its React design, on a budget that ruled out the usual platforms. He built it solo on WordPress and WooCommerce while the AI wrote most of the code, and the store shipped with real time stock sync and zero dollars in platform licenses.
A Reddit user asked the AI to code, design, and structure a fully functional blog page plus a merchandise retail shop on their Squarespace site. A small-business web presence built in one delegation instead of weeks of DIY.
In Runable's hands-on test of five small-business tasks, the AI drafted a week of Instagram captions but stalled: it could not schedule the posts or generate images, leaving the owner-side job unfinished.
He runs a music school and cannot code. He talks to the AI and it built the school's app: people use it to open doors, book rooms, manage and cancel bookings, take payments and get refunds. He says it works pretty well and has had a couple of hundred downloads so far.
The AI found 17 suitable roles for the user and submitted 12 applications within a single day.
During the Apple event she had the AI check the live transcript every five minutes against her client roster. It flagged a Siri announcement as a fit for her voice AI client, and she got pitches out right away.
Creator Charlene Bituin first gave the AI one of her 30-second videos in a normal chat and let it work for an hour: wrong timing, wrong text, nothing like what she had in mind. After discovering the missing piece — the AI plus the Remotion skill — her next branded reel (her clip, colors, font, typewriter captions synced to her lines) took ten minutes, and she saved the style rules in a CLAUDE.md so every later video follows them automatically.
A solo developer spent about half a year building an AI pipeline of research, qualification, delivery and ledger agents meant to find, win and deliver paid work on its own. Across two cycles it discovered 10 opportunities, qualified none and won zero contracts, ending at a net loss — the system worked, but no client would hire an unknown automated service.
Marketing agency Truppel used an agent inside Clint to answer clients faster after 3 months of missing targets. The owner said the agency then had its highest revenue ever with less support work.
Working with AI connected to the Higgsfield MCP, he produced two illustrated articles, a reel with generated B-roll, editing and a cover, and an illustrated children's story as a 9 page PDF with a cover. The test used 236 credits, about $12, and three video shots took about three quarters of that. He also shows the connection mistake he made at the start.
Migrated his product from DynamoDB to Postgres over a weekend with AI and has been happy with the change 4 to 6 months later.
In February he told the AI what road he was taking and when he was setting off. The AI picked lunch places within a 20 minute detour that he would reach at lunchtime, 10 of them spread over 50 miles, with an import into Google Maps.
Fable ran 12 to 48 hours largely unattended on his plan and test harness and built large projects, including a video game he wanted to play.
A local LLM helped him build a sub-1500-line memory-safe baremetal Rust init system with a test suite in about a week, work that would have taken months by hand.
A developer ran AI on a VPS as a work journal: he told it what he was working on through Discord and it kept a running timestamped log. Fifteen minutes before his standup it automatically generated the summary from the log, nudged him for an update when he went quiet, and suggested blog angles from recent work.
The AI automated porting business software from QuickBASIC on DOS to Tcl on Linux, usually right first try, to add features management needed.
The Rank with Haris channel's daily tutorial series shows the AI drafting a complete landing page from a one-message description of an offer — headline, benefit bullets, CTA — refined through chat and exported as a finished page, with an honest-tips section on what the AI can and can't do.
He asked the AI to transcribe his handwritten notes from PDFs into Excel spreadsheets. It started doing it, then gave up.
He says his business got serious about Power BI reporting about twelve months ago, then three months ago threw it out and replaced it with AI licences. A third party warehouse tidies the data with an MCP on top, and the finance team now builds its own reports quickly instead of waiting on a reporting team.
Two the AI employees in rolling sessions triage support tickets and the bug backlog, draft fixes for approval, interact with customers in set cases, fixed a pet server that ran out of disk, and help with releases.
