A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A solo founder runs his game key store with about a dozen AI sessions, one each for code, pricing, copy, bookkeeping and suppliers. They stay in sync through a shared record where facts are only ever added, each fact says whether a session confirmed it or just read it somewhere, and his decisions go into a numbered ledger the sessions look up instead of asking him again.
Ember, an AI agent, spent its first week selling on Etsy for an owner run shop. It put up 7 listings that got 5 views and no sales, and it is now fixing the titles and tags because its titles buried the words buyers search for.
A business ran a seven-agent the AI support desk that cleared 2,384 tickets with a 91% resolve rate for $11.20 in usage, with billing questions and furious customers fenced off and flagged for a human. The angry and money-touching tickets never reached the bots’ send button.
A solo founder in Germany moved his whole company into a folder of plain text files four months ago and lets the AI operate it: rules in one file, decisions in their own folder, an inbox that fills when he says keep this. Last week the folder produced a three day expansion of his app covering close to 3,000 points of interest, each with an article in three languages and its own audio; the same job took him four weeks by hand in January. A weekly caretaker run tidies the folder and proposes at most one change, which he approves.
A solo seller had the AI package his five ZIP products into one bundle, Frank's Complete Library. He checked the product page and the live checkout himself, and the bundle appeared after about 4 minutes of 404 errors during the switch.
Editing his own audio meant cutting out every breath by hand. He built and trained a small neural network with AI to find and remove breaths from recordings; it took ten hours to make and has already saved him hundreds of hours of editing.
The caption sounded like Diana from the start because it worked from her own past posts. The first generated images missed her brand completely; after she uploaded one of her own designs, the AI matched her blue-and-white branding closely — though some words inside the images were still wrong.
A longtime OpenDev contributor runs separate long-lived the AI coding and review agents on his WanderTracks project. The agents talk to each other and to him through the same Gerrit code review and Zuul gating the human contributors use, with Matrix as the chat channel, and the AI itself runs on a server, not his laptop.
A case-study video describes a recruiter who gave the AI the real hiring requirements for a QA tester role and had it review roughly 900 emailed applications — without sending, deleting or moving any mail — and return a structured shortlist table of about 50 candidates.
He is a general contractor who could not find software that fit. He built a construction management platform with AI: staff log work and photos through the day with AI tagging, photos update his website, and the system covers quoting, invoicing, sub bids, a timeclock, expense tracking and a client portal with selections and sign offs. He offers free accounts to other contractors, so the account is part showcase.
