Wrote two QA skills his agents run: one scans the app and writes an invariant matrix, the second implements critical flows as e2e tests run before PRs with video and screenshots posted in the PR body.
Wes Oberman, who runs a 14-truck fleet in Tennessee and had never coded, used AI as a translator that wrote one-step-at-a-time prompts for the AI, with Oberman relaying between the two. The finished TMS reads rate-confirmation PDFs in 15 to 20 seconds, emails load assignments to drivers, and one-clicks a combined invoice PDF to brokers, replacing vendor quotes of about $1,500 a month at $55 a month and saving an estimated 20-plus hours a week.
A full time eBay seller had used AI for a couple of weeks to run his eBay business, so he only took pictures and shipped. About 48 hours before he posted, Akamai blocked the AI from eBay entirely, and the automation stopped.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He asked his bot to sign him up for the side events around All-In Montreal. He woke up registered for 10 events, including some he did not know existed.
The AI built a seven-day social and community content calendar from a Drive folder of the tester's existing content notes and quarterly goal. Every post topic, hook and call to action cited the exact Google Doc section it came from, with working links.
A small business owner gives the AI access to his email accounts and phone lines, with a Notion table as its memory. Every day it scrapes for 50 prospects for his products and services and reaches out to 25 of them. He also sells parts of the same setup to his own clients.
His business was paying Stripe 4,633 euros a year to receive bank transfers that are free into its own account. He had the AI go through 12 months of Revolut and Stripe charges.
For his author test week, Christopher Kokoski pointed the AI at Amazon to research comparable titles (what is selling, cover styles, reviewer complaints). Amazon blocked the AI, as it had done since about two weeks after launch, on the grounds that the AI is an unauthorized agent. Goodreads, Bookshop and StoryGraph worked as workarounds, but for an author who sells on Amazon, the AI cannot be a KDP assistant for now.

He built a setup that links the AI with Photoshop to handle a work task that is too fiddly to call simple. When a request came in from a client, the setup did the work and he delivered it so fast the client said they had expected it to take about 2 weeks.
