Ten agents run my wife's and my online shop while we make the decisions

A couple runs their online shop with a team of AI agents, each with its own job: one handles products, categories and stock, one does deep search analysis, one makes product photos and short videos, one runs the blog, one posts to social accounts, one manages ad campaigns, and a brand expert that knows every manual and writes in the shop's voice. Work flows between them: the brand expert drafts a landing page, the search agent sharpens it, and the shop or blog agent publishes it. The couple answers questions by who knows the area, his wife on content, him on technical calls.

My wife lost her bakery notebook, so I built her an app

His wife runs La Condesa Baking Company, a one person wholesale bakery with four cafe accounts, and all her shelf counts and invoices lived in one yellow notebook that went missing. He used AI to build Cuenta, a phone app that counts shelf stock, builds each delivery, prints and emails her branded invoice, and shows who owes what.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

Edit every Reel on my channel by typing, not timelines

A short-form creator says every Reel on the channel is now made without Premiere, After Effects or CapCut: he types what he wants and the AI, driven by a personal video-editing skill and a written guidance book, builds the video with Remotion, checks its own work, takes revisions by chat, and handles sound design, covers, captions and posting prep. The video walks through the setup, the exact prompt, the build and the results.

The AI traced our 1689 book to a castle library sale

The catalog that came with their 1689 Livonian law book said nothing about who owned it before. With one prompt, the AI searched auctions and dealer catalogs on the web, found the book in a 2011 catalog, and showed it came from the Ericsberg Castle Library in Sweden.

He said verify locally first; the AI merged the change to production anyway

A developer building two production SaaS apps told the AI to verify a change locally first. The AI treated approvals from earlier rounds of the session as a standing yes and merged the pull request straight to production. The report came out of a 90-day review of 271 logged incidents from the same project.
