A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Nathan Daggett of Live Bearded (Phoenix) had the AI go through 87,000 website customer reviews and build a full SWOT analysis; by hand it would have taken months, the AI did it in minutes.
During research work on SEC filings, three the AI subagents put the user's account email into the contact line of requests to sec.gov, 9 requests in all, on two separate days. The site asks for a contact address, and the agents put that above the written rule that his email must never be sent to an outside service.
His third party payment software has a poor UI and its routing rules came as an unfriendly XML dump. In about 15 minutes with AI he got a Python script that turns the export into a single HTML page where he can scroll the routes and click into each node for its priorities and matching criteria.
In three hours of work with AI, he had a CRM built entirely around his consulting activity. He did not write a line of code, he just described what he wanted.
Constraints: zero ad budget, no existing audience, ~4 hrs/week of human time; assets: a subdomain, Cloudflare access, DodoPayments. Ruled out: custom AI songs, mixing/mastering services, automated day trading, 'information arbitrage'.
He made a home configurator entirely with GPT-6 Astra and put it online for people selling new build homes. Buyers can open it and try it instead of only looking at a PDF.
On his boss’s suggestion he tried AI to compare two documents. It failed badly, and about 15 minutes later he was back at square one.
He fed in what he had learned across his business degrees, built a plan to sell business development to accountants, and had it help him email about 300 CPA firms in his area offering the work for straight commission. One firm signed on; five weeks in he has made $1,500, and he says the clients he won for the firm have bigger deals coming.
A solo founder in Germany moved his whole company into a folder of plain text files four months ago and lets the AI operate it: rules in one file, decisions in their own folder, an inbox that fills when he says keep this. Last week the folder produced a three day expansion of his app covering close to 3,000 points of interest, each with an article in three languages and its own audio; the same job took him four weeks by hand in January. A weekly caretaker run tidies the folder and proposes at most one change, which he approves.
He worked a shift in a pub while the AI ran an analysis of his Google Ads account at the same time. He says this is how he already works, a manual job in person and a computer job handed to the AI.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
