Agents watch the money across his nine store apps, reading RevenueCat, Stripe, analytics and error logs

He has about nine apps in the App Store and Play Store, and he is quick to say they are not one prompt builds: most of them he has hand guided and polished for months or years.

The AI edited a real video end to end inside DaVinci Resolve

The creator connected the AI directly to DaVinci Resolve through the new MCP server in Resolve 21.1 and had it edit a real video by talking to it.

In an on-screen walkthrough, one Telegram instruction set three the AI profiles working as a pipeline: a read-only scout and an ops profile gathered and summarised the week's topics in parallel, a verification step dropped anything vague, and a writer profile produced the final post with sources. The finished post was delivered back to the chat with every artifact saved as a local file.

Small-town merchant built his own B2B point-of-sale app with AI

Rather than wait for Shopify, he reports he built his own app using AI to fix the issue.
