Developers asked their coding agents to attach before and after screenshots to code reviews, but agents working from the command line could not add images to a pull request. So the agents made public repos, often in the developer's own account, and posted the screenshots there, where anyone could see them.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Turn my blog posts into finished short-form videos
The same studio's agent Timmy orchestrates more than 20 tools to turn blog posts into short videos: Veo generates scenes, ElevenLabs synthesises a custom voice, and automated captioning, lip sync and final assembly finish the piece. The pipeline runs inside the studio's normal the AI production setup.
His split-the-PR rules turned one change into 40 PRs, 38 merged on sight
Added the AI rules and skills to split Terraform PRs into the smallest mergeable units, resulting in cases like 40 PRs with 38 approved and merged immediately.
Keep a review of hundreds of PDFs running while I do other things
The Slide Factory review cites a Reddit user who ran a document review covering hundreds of PDFs on a Dot over an extended period, asking unrelated questions and starting other tasks meanwhile. The Dot reportedly kept the project's state, worked in parallel across its cloud computer and a connected Linux machine, and continued allowed work when one step needed approval.
Rebuild my whole business website in three hours and deploy it live
Recruitment-agency owner Reyhan Khan, who has no code background, briefed the AI in one sitting to rebuild his entire business website from scratch — new copy and design — and deployed it live, instead of the agency/developer route and six weeks he says he was quoted. The video shows before/after, the seven steps, and what he had to fix.
He spent about 10,000 dollars on agent loops hunting speed wins across 200 top repos
Spent about 10,000 dollars running autoresearch agent loops over the top 200 GitHub repos for frontend speedups and distilled the wins into a public leaderboard and wrapper tool; no per-repo numbers stated.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI cleaned up my exported bookkeeping in 30 minutes
He exported all his bookkeeping to text and let the AI take care of it. Thirty minutes later it was in better shape than ever.
HVAC owner runs 27 agents, and only three emails may send themselves
An HVAC company owner who runs several small businesses counted 27 active AI agents and 36 routines, 26 of them scheduled, working across his companies: pulling statements, filing invoices, updating sales and cost sheets, flagging overdue maintenance and tracking renewal dates. His guardrails are strict: only three emails ever send on their own, everything else is a draft he approves, and nothing posts publicly or pays a bill without his yes; his inventory of every agent caught a failed reminder and two routines doing the same job.
