His company paid $180 a month for five seats on SmartSuite, the tool holding their documents and HR files. He built a replacement with AI that fits their exact needs, can grow to thousands of users, and will cost less than $30 a month to run.
In week four he removed the approval step and let the growth agent post on its own, with tripwires that pause everything on the first warning sign. Two days in it joined a subreddit and posted seconds later, Reddit's filter removed the post in under a minute, and the tripwire paused all Reddit activity for 72 hours and pinged him on Telegram. Weekly users grew from 37 to 64 over the same stretch.
Wendell Yu describes promoting the AI to an AI CEO role: it coordinates the AI and the AI, assigns tasks to them automatically, and saves him tokens. It is the second of five first-hand the AI cases in his video.
He needed a foreign language voiceover on a video presentation at work. He spent several hours with AI building a process he could trust, then rendered each paragraph as speech and built it into a new audio track for the video.
A job seeker let the AI apply for jobs for him over 3 days, Sept 22 to 24. It sent 38 applications, all remote, mostly IT support roles, while he sent only 2 himself.
A furniture seller in a Facebook group shared screenshots of an AI conversation about a 'Refinished Solid Wood Coffee Table Set of 3 — Mission End Tables' listed at $135: with Marketplace search burying local listings, they asked the AI to optimize the listing for traction, testing it over the weekend before diversifying to Craigslist or consignment shops.
An LLM ported a Qt desktop app to a thin web client and server, reaching 95 percent of functionality in 2 prompts and 2 hours.
A home services business was losing leads nobody followed up. The AI scores each new lead A, B or C against the owner's 4 rules, writes a short summary on the contact, and drafts personal WhatsApp follow-ups that a person checks and sends each morning. The poster says it brings in 5 extra contracts a month at about 9,500 euros each.
He set up the AI with five helpers for his YouTube work. One scouts what is new every Monday, one helps write scripts, one makes all his thumbnails, one updates his personal brand GitHub repo, and one helps him engage on X.
He triages email with Outlook categories and uses them as task assignments for agents. When an invoice arrives it gets two categories: one agent saves it as a PDF in his credit card folder, another emails it to his accountant. Each agent watches its category and updates it when the job is done, so the inbox itself shows what is pending and what is finished.
