Employees at Swiss sportswear brand On launched no-code the AI Enterprise agents themselves. The agents handle knowledge extraction, executive reporting, research, scheduling and onboarding materials.
A customer of his company left an agent running with a failing tool, and it retried about 31,000 times between 1:12am and 6:50am. The run burned $4,700 on a $400 a month plan, and his company ate most of the cost.
Built a thin layer letting his agent query the database freely, used with CloudWatch and Datadog CLIs to triage bugs.
He gave the AI a paper and its Lean proofs. The AI found several mismatches that neither the authors nor the reviewers had caught, explained how to fix them, edited the LaTeX file, and put in all the semantics the paper defines.
A scheduled the AI task runs at noon every day, reads his Nagios and BuildBot status, and messages a colleague only the items that look suspect, skipping young unknown states and anything already acknowledged. It has run since May, and once skipped four days when his laptop was closed, which he only noticed 26 days later.
A peer reviewer put a manuscript's reference list into AI and asked it to find a web link for each one. Two references were fictitious and 13 more looked suspect, so the reviewer rejected the paper.
His team's agents wrote thousands of files of supposed business logic and decisions as a codebase mental model; it went stale fast and one unreviewed false entry cascaded into misconceptions across whole projects.
He runs product marketing at a SaaS company. The AI audited where old icons appear across 12 products, sites, decks and emails and produced a tracker of about 200 rows to assign out. It built the URL redirect map for a site restructure, runs a browser routine that pastes page text into a sheet, and writes quarterly status updates in 20 minutes instead of most of an afternoon.
He runs AI against real client bookkeeping, sorting thousands of PDFs into folders for about 40 companies. Before any file moves, the system writes a log line with the current path, the destination, a sha256 hash of the contents and the path to put it back. Nothing is deleted; files go to a dated quarantine folder, and a file can only be cleared when its hash already exists elsewhere.
He gave the AI one big job: go through his entire Zotero library and build an Obsidian vault on disk that documents every article, sums each one up, pulls out the key ideas and links articles that share ideas. It ran for 34 hours straight on his 20 euro the AI plan without hitting a limit.
