A digital-health CEO reports his businesses have no full-time developers, DevOps, designers, analysts or product manager: scheduled AI agent shifts handle deploys, an agent-built CRM, per-business-line email sorting, meeting scheduling, technical support and publishing news four times a day. The work runs on three $200 AI subscriptions — $600 a month against roughly $38,500 a month at US median pay for the replaced roles.
His agent cuts his films into shorts on its own
His agent takes his finished films, makes short clips from them, and posts the clips itself. He reports the results have been great.
Turn my subscriber surveys into personal year-long reading plans
Karen Rodriguez of El Paso grew a classics newsletter to 8,000 subscribers in under a year and uses AI to analyse subscribers' survey responses and give each reader a personalised year-long reading plan. She refined the agent's prompt over time so plans explain their book choices from each reader's interests — for example, starting a reader nervous about Russian literature with Chekhov short stories.
Opus runs his email, his cancellation numbers and his bug fixes
Opus handles most of his email work, runs analytics for every cancellation on his software, interprets A/B tests automatically, fixes bugs automatically and monitors competitors.
An agent wrote my blog for six months. I fixed its work 67 times.
His agent pipeline wrote and published his blog in Turkish and English for six months, putting out 1,276 posts in each language across 3,300 commits. Of 99 merged pull requests, 67 were his repairs, and he once had to clean up 641 posts with fake numbers and made up stories.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
My AI keeps TokenPlans.dev up to date on a schedule
His AI rechecks all 31 providers and 89 plans on TokenPlans.dev on a schedule. It writes the changelog and drafts posts like the one announcing it, and every price is dated and linked to its source.
Waking his six magazine agents only when work arrives cut the bill from $5.86 to $1.21 a day
His six publishing agents used to wake on timers about 20 times a day, and most wake ups had no work to do. Switching to waking only when a task arrives cut the daily bill from $5.86 to $1.21, about 79% less, and September's four long form articles cost $50.53 total.
Re-screen the same hiring pool against an outcomes scorecard — and hire
After the cancellation mess, Curtis wrote a one-page scorecard for the role (mission, five measurable first-year outcomes, six competencies), pasted it into the prompt and had the AI map each candidate's track record to each outcome with evidence from the résumé. With a human making every cut and applications closed before booking, the process ended in a Director of Ecommerce hire who has already optimized the company's Amazon listings and helped launch a product — and a declined candidate was later hired as a TikTok consultant.
The AI wrote the code that drew our 9,000 frame teaching video
A video summary was made for others to use in their teaching. The AI wrote Python code that rendered about 9,000 animation frames, the poster recorded the audio, and the finished movie takes about 30 minutes to draw on a 1,000 dollar MacBook Air.
