@ryan_doser13 Built something similar (for this trade group) and learning a ton. Was curious to see as I wonder if they would simply pay for leads if you bring them

@EricFriedman That's the idea yea, and I'll also use this for AI tutorials as I'm testing things

I spun up a local service website in a few hours that already ranks locally and received 2 leads in 24 hours. My Stack: Claude Code + GitHub + Cloudflare + Astro (web framework) A web agency would charge thousands for this. I'll be discussing this more on my YouTube channel soon. Stay tuned!

@toddsaunders This is great. We should do this again here

We organized a 125 person meetup in the suburbs of NJ. What we didn’t tell the attendees was that 30% of the folks were in the trades. What came of it was magic. You had people from places like Figma, Google, Digital Ocean, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and Meta mixed with owners of hvac, landscaping, poop scoop, plumbing and Christmas light companies. By the end of the night the conversations all looked the same. The AI builders wanted to know how real businesses actually run. The operators wanted to know how AI actually works. This is further proof that the future of vertical software isn’t getting built in San Francisco coffee shops. It’s getting built in rooms like this one. And hopefully in Westfield NJ.

@shannholmberg What’s the hardware

the org chart for my Hermes Agent company four layers, all isolated docker containers on one vps: 1. company brain - vision, brand, customers, products. the context every other layer inherits 2. orchestrator hermes agent - reads the company brain, picks the right department, hands off the context they need 3. department brain - marketing, sales, ops, support. each one has its own playbook, voice rules, and tools 4. specialized hermes agents - the actual workers. each one focused on a single task with a sub-profile context flows down, work flows up, and memory stays scoped to the layer that owns it one vps holds the whole company. spin up new departments or agents from a template, each in its own container, no cross-contamination

@Jason @Lovable If you have the internal people to do this and maintain this stuff, awesome! If not we started doing this graphadvisors.com/outcomes-engin…

My team has built some amazing internal tools using @Lovable in the past month In 4-16 hours they built things that were priced out at $100k+ by dev spots 3-4 years ago

Its really amazing Ramp put this all out there ramp.com/vendors/catego…

Feedback for Claude Design @claudeai ; "edit" text on pages is amazing but theres no "Save" back to the systemand I keep losing all edits.

Each one of these is better than the last. This is the Internet that I am here for 🤣

@realpaulsmith @hnshah Time for some outside help? Put me in coach! graphadvisors.com/outcomes-engin…

I'm getting pulled into more Fortune 500 meetings than we can staff, and we can't train partners fast enough. Ramp just put an outside number on it: 34% of their businesses now pay for Anthropic, up from 9% a year ago, #1. The segment they don't capture looks the same.

@mignano I called this AI memory lock in effects (2024) ericgfriedman.com/2024/04/30/ai-…

@noahkagan 👋

I'm launching a marketplace for Vibe-Coded apps + AI Skills 👉 think AppSumo for people building with Claude/Codex in a weekend. Looking for early beta partners, DM me or leave comment. Will get exposure to 1 million peeps.

@shannholmberg What’s a good “spin up a project” example that you’ve run

my entire Hermes Agent setup is controlled from one folder on a VPS I can manage it from my laptop or phone in under 10 seconds, spin up isolated agents per project, and never lose context here's the full setup: > bash command "ssh hermes" auto-connects to the VPS > session pinned in CMUX terminal for instant access > Claude Code session inside the ssh connection with full remote access > everything runs from a control station folder folder structure: vps-agents/ ├── README .md overview + how to use it ├── CLAUDE .md auto-loaded project context for Claude Code ├── agents/hermes-main/ │ ├── inventory .md IP, hostname, where it runs, who owns it │ ├── docker. md draft docker-compose + first-boot checklist │ ├── runbook. md "it broke, what now" — 7 common scenarios │ ├── env-map. md table of which keys live where (no values) │ └── backup. md GitHub backup flow + restore steps └── shared/ ├── security. md VPS-wide hardening checklist └── commands. md Docker / Hermes / UFW cheat sheet from this session I can spin up new docker-isolated agents per area and each one can have sub-profiles the whole stack is documented, backed up to GitHub, and accessible from anywhere

@dotta Would love to chat

@EricFriedman We're currently building Paperclip Cloud and there's a lot to do there

For Paperclip, we're moving away from "zero human companies" and moving towards "the app people use to manage agents at work" 📎📎📎

@dotta What kind of help do you need?

i'm busier than ever and even hiring so 'zero human companies' doesn't really seem to be what's happening. if anything humans are now responsible for more output

@fin465 Oh hey it’s us

someone is gonna cold email 1,000 accounting firms in the US and make $1-3 million personally in 2026

@pitdesi @iamjakestream Should non venture scale folks like me come? graphadvisors.com/outcomes-engin…
