A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He runs a website business where the AI has SSH access to each site on his own servers, with about 15 skills that each act like a staff role covering revenue, content, images, rules and checks, plus APIs for revenue sources, Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools. Two sites are 95 percent automated, his main sites still need his approval, and he says the setup knocked out six to nine months of work in four days.
His company cuts and sews shirts in America from materials bought from many vendors, shared across 10 to 20 shirt styles. Working out the true cost of a finished shirt by hand was a mess. Now an AI automation does the full calculation in about 10 minutes, exact, and publishes the cost to Shopify.
Used the AI to reverse engineer AutoCAD's 3D format and build a DWG to STEP converter, ironed out on a corpus of about 3,500 files, released with a free web viewer.
He runs a freelance video editing studio and a coding studio, and his project folders were a mess across drives. He started a small folder making script with AI and kept adding to it daily for five months. It is now a 100,000 line Rust program with 1,390 tests that holds every project he has, gives each a permanent ID, and jumps him to any project on any drive or machine with one command.
He asked the AI to make a marketing video for his app, Astro Editor. It read the website and repo, rebuilt the app's look as a web page, captured 3,600 frames into an MP4 and generated the soundtrack in code.
He had the AI answer a Slack notification from a Datadog monitor. The AI checked the issue through Datadog MCP, found the right Slack group to ping, and sent a summary of what needed fixing.
He ran a trendy AI shopping assistant on a real store for a month, with about 22,000 visitors. Revenue per visitor was $1.118 with it on and $1.112 with it off, for a net effect of about minus $120.
He fed a career vault tool 21 resumes from the last 10 years plus weekly journal entries about projects, wins and goals. Every morning the AI pulls jobs that match his profile, tailors his resume per posting from that real history, generates the PDF, and fills out the whole application, then stops and waits for his review before anything goes out. Review takes him about 30 seconds per application, against 4 to 6 minutes each when he did it with AI. The post also promotes his own paid tool, so it is marked promotional.
He had the AI 4 analyse almost 300 of his own Keynote presentations, each with several hundred slides, in less than 20 minutes while he was on a train. He then posted what it found.
Connecting the agency's own MCP-based SEO service to Toby took an afternoon of wrong turns between desktop and web plugin setups, but once authenticated it created both monitored sites and completed full crawls: 44 pages for the law firm and 111 for the medical practice. Google data imports were still skipped because the service had no Google connection configured.
