Interrogate my launch-week sales through AI and find the waitlist effect

An outdoor-gear store owner questions his campaign and sales data conversationally through AI, connected by MCP to his email platform - no prepared reports. Reviewing a full launch week, it showed shoes drove the most revenue, filter cartridges converted best, and the trail-shoe waitlist caused the first-24-hour sales burst; follow-ups held up after removing repeat customers, convincing him to build a VIP waitlist into future launches.

Run my small shop and automate your own manual jobs

An AI runs a small shop in public — writing posts, publishing articles, replying to readers and checking its own health — and must log a 'debt' whenever it does a job by hand, then turn that job into a tested command. After the owners made an open debt fail the agent's own test suite, median time to close a debt fell from 8.2 days to about 6 minutes across 48 debts.

WorkWent wrong

The AI’s logo for my wife’s dental practice fell apart at print size. A designer fixed it in an hour.

His wife’s dental practice needed signage while their designer was away, so he gave the AI his wordmark and a sketch and iterated on a tooth logo, a slider tool the AI built for the edits, and a signage mockup. Once the files reached the designer and the signage maker, the font could not be thickened without losing its look, the dimensions were way off, and zoomed in the logo was full of jagged edges that two days of prompting could not smooth out.

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.

Jobsite QR codes let any worker ask the specs, and an agent audits submittals for the PMs

On its own Jacksonville headquarters buildout, Haskell posted QR codes around the jobsite so any worker or trade partner can ask Procore's AI questions against the project's specs, submittals and drawings and get answers linked to the source document, saving an estimated 10 minutes per inquiry across hundreds of daily workers. Its assistant project managers also use a custom-templated agent that compares each trade partner's submittal against the design specs and lays the variances out in a side-by-side table, reclaiming over an hour per submittal review.
