Running a one person marketplace in Japan, he shipped four Mac apps and a web product with AI doing the release work

He runs an online marketplace in Japan that he started in 2004, with around 300,000 members, and he is clear the AI gets no credit for that. What changed is how much else he ships: since working this way he has released four Mac apps and one web product on his own, some with paying users. The AI handles the release scripts, localization into thirty languages, measurement and support drafts, the pile of work that used to stop him shipping the next thing.

Three AIs raced to catalog 999+ Shopify themes; only the AI finished

Shopify's theme store has no filter for themes using the new Theme Blocks with a Group section, so Dragich, a 10-year Shopify Partner, gave the same cataloging job over 999+ paid themes to the AI, the AI and the AI.

My agent watches my client chats so no reply or meeting ever slips

A consultant runs 21 the AI jobs, all switched on. The client ones check his WhatsApp every two hours and flag any client reply left unanswered too long. Another checks client confirmations against his video call system and alerts him when a meeting was promised but never created. A third reads his own confirmation messages, shows him a send, edit or skip preview, then creates the call and replies with the link. Draft replies are prepared the same way and only go out after his tap.
