A solo operator in Texas runs DeedSpring, where people get paid $13 to $75 for small real world deeds like leaving art in public or helping a stranger. His agent Vesper runs the desk: recruiting, acknowledgments, checking photo evidence against the posted rules, and payouts through escrow. Six deeds have been paid so far across five countries, and every receipt sits on a public ledger.
Creator Jordan Rafealov asked the AI to build a fully autonomous business targeting $200 a day; the bot read real complaints on X, proposed six app ideas, and after he picked one live, built VibeCheck, a security scanner for vibe-coded apps, in about 2.5 hours including the name, plan and domain purchase. The video doubles as a funnel for his paid community.
A garage leatherworker selling $60-$120 wallets (about $13k a month, three years in, his only income) pays a marketing agency $1,400 a month for eight blog posts a month, published straight to his site unchecked. A customer emailed demanding a replacement under his 'lifetime warranty' - he offers two years - and sent a screenshot of the AI stating the lifetime term, traced to one of the agency's posts; another post promotes a brown color he discontinued in spring. Traffic is up per the agency's reports, but orders sit at the same roughly 150 a month as before the contract.

Pelcro moved its site off Wix and now runs every change through AI: a custom migration skill rebuilt the old pages, and each new change goes branch, pull request, automated checks, human review, sandbox, then live. Nothing ships unless lint, type, build and content checks all pass.
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.
For the Group step, the AI said its connection's group tools were read-only, so Diana gave it the Group link and signed in to Facebook through its browser, watching each step. The post published; she checked it live on Facebook.
He let the AI go through his system and write a first pass of the documentation, including the billing part he felt he had to finish before retiring. The remittances section alone used up a full day of tokens, so the work ran over several days, but it got done and let him retire, or at least half retire, a little earlier.
A designer treated the AI like a design engineer for his client Wordsmith AI. After 8 versions and more than 90 rounds of feedback, they shipped Draftboard, a live tool where anyone at the company can make on-brand images in a few clicks.
Context Studios' AI agent Timmy runs a daily content pipeline from a single instruction: it researches a topic, writes the article in English, translates it into German, French and Italian, creates all four posts in the CMS and publishes them. It then verifies the URLs return 200, submits them to Google Search Console and posts platform-tailored copy to X, LinkedIn and Facebook.
