This guy closes $5K/month managed agent clients and his AI agent does the fulfillment. His agent Dewey builds the client's agent, onboards it into their Slack, and handles the customer support after. Nick Vasilescu watches client problems get solved from his phone while he's on a walk. He came... back on the Build With AI podcast to walk through the entire system. Here's what I learned: 1. Agents building agents is here. Dewey built a $5K/month client's agent on Orgo and onboarded it into their Slack himself. 2. The company behind Hermes is hiring forward deployed engineers for enterprise. The SMB and mid-market layer beneath is up for grabs. 3. His agent has its own email, phone, and card. Dewey signed up for Higgsfield and paid for it himself. 4. Customer support runs without him. Dewey sits in iMessage group chats with clients and fixes issues on the fly. 5. The 80/20 stack: a harness (Hermes or OpenClaw), a model, an Orgo computer, Agent Mail, Agent Phone, Obsidian, Honcho for memory, Composio, Latitude. 6. packages the agent card, email, and phone for about $20/month. 7. Templatize once, deploy forever. Save your ideal stack as an Orgo template and one-click clone it for every client. 8. Nobody pays $5K/month for an agent that doesn't make them money. Build the client an agent, then help them resell it to THEIR customers. B2B2B never churns. 9. Skills come from a context dump. The client dumps everything into Slack and Dewey turns the discovery call transcript into skills. 10. Sell to real businesses, not startups. SMBs doing $1M to $2M minimum pay more and ask fewer questions. Nick put Dewey's entire build into a simple blueprint. Anyone can set this up and be texting their agent in under 2 minutes. Grab the blueprint (free) here: His 2 key takeaways: 1. Build is commoditized. The valuable skill is asking the right questions and knowing which tool to point the agent at. 2. Speed to value wins. The same day a client wires money, ship them something. Agent live by day two. Nick is living further in the future than almost anyone I know and round two did not disappoint.

My Hermes agent builds AI employees for me. Just closed another $5K‑a‑month customer today for an AI employee for a design agency. I'm not even building any of it. I have Dewey, my Hermes agent, building out the entire Hermes agent for this design agency and onboarding the agent into Slack for me. All I do is ask the questions, make sure it gets recorded in Granola (my ai notetaker), and then Dewey takes it over from there. Crazy world we live in.

This guy sells AI employees to small businesses. He's a non-technical designer with no audience, spends $0 on ads, has no tech background. Yet he's still done 21 agent setups in 6 months, almost all from referrals. His model: install one AI agent as a digital employee, then get paid monthly to manage it and coach the owner. Setup fee plus a per-agent monthly rate. Phil came on the Build With AI pod to walk us through the whole playbook. Here's what I learned: 1. The product is the coaching, not the agent. Owners treat AI like Google. You get paid to manage it so they never have to. 2. Raise your price every yes. $500 setups became $1,000. Now he's targeting $2,000 setups plus $1,000/month per agent. 3. Give the agent a value ledger. It logs every task and sends a weekly ROI report. One client's first week: 63 hours saved, $6,300 in value. 4. Put yourself in the group chat. Telegram group with Phil, the client, and the agent. The client learns by watching him talk to it. 5. The agents handle real multi-step work. One prompt: find the invoice email, extract the PDF into Excel, save to Dropbox, send the link. Done in 10 minutes. 6. Uptime is a selling point. The best prospects tried agents themselves and quit when they broke. Phil fixes it before the client notices. 7. Free work is the referral engine. Friends in his small Georgia town told friends in Atlanta and Dallas. Now he has clients nationwide. 8. The pitch is one text. "I'm testing a managed agent service. Want to be a guinea pig? I'll charge you less." First client: $250/month. 9. Make the agent write to Excel, not its own markdown. A shared source of truth is the difference between a demo and a system. 10. Phil builds his agents on Orgo. $29/month gets your agent a computer with pre-built templates. Phil's agent handles the Orgo admin itself. His 2 key takeaways: 1. You only need to be one step ahead. If you've built an agent for yourself, you know more than the owner who never has. Charge from day one. 2. Visible ROI is the retention strategy. A weekly "you saved $6,300" report re-sells the retainer every single week. Phil is doing this at a level most technical people are not, and we had a blast going deep on it.

HOW TO MAKE $50K/MONTH SELLING MANAGED AI AGENTS (FULL COURSE) The model: sell managed AI agents to businesses for $5K/month each. You handle the infrastructure, they get an employee that never sleeps. 10 clients puts you at $50K MRR with 85%+ margins, run entirely by you and a fleet of agents. Nick Vasilescu is doing exactly this, and he came on the pod to walk through the whole playbook. Here's what I learned: 1. The arbitrage is that nobody knows this is possible. 99% of business owners are still asking ChatGPT what the weather is. One working agent hooks them on the spot. 2. Sell abundance. Unlimited agents, unlimited infrastructure. They don't care what an MCP is, they care that their problem is gone. 3. Don't niche too early. Say yes to everyone and let the market pull you. You find the niche by doing reps, not guessing. 4. Paid audit into managed service. Charge $1K to map every automation opportunity, then credit it toward month one. Qualifies the lead, makes the upsell a no-brainer. 5. First call, don't sell. Record it, map the workflow tip to tail, find the automation with the most value and least effort. Start there. 6. The stack is Hermes + Composio + Orgo. Composio connects all their apps in one click. Orgo spins up a working Hermes agent in 26 seconds. 7. Productize with a golden snapshot. Build one perfect agent, clone it, and every copy comes over one for one with auth intact. 8. Turn client call transcripts into skills in 10 minutes. Feed the recording to Claude Code, write the skill, port it to the client's agent via Orgo MCP. 9. Watchdogs make you look elite. Get alerted before the client notices anything broke. "Already fixed it" is why they keep paying you. 10. You become their guy. You drive more outcomes than their own employees, they credit every win to you, and churn drops to almost nothing. His 2 key takeaways: 1. Bet on cost going to zero. They launched unlimited tokens when it was barely profitable because they knew they'd capture the spread. Build for where the puck is going. 2. One client every six weeks gets you to $600K a year. The model isn't hard, it's just unevenly executed. That's the entire opportunity. Nick is crushing this model and we had a blast diving deep on how you can do the same. Go follow Nick Vasilescu Full video below.

Here is how simple it is to build a UI front-end for an AI agent (assuming you are using . The video here is 90 seconds and will show you everything you need to connect an agent to a web app: 1. Set up CopilotKit🪁 in your app 1. Copy the agent's localhost URL from LangGraph Studio 2. Paste that URL into a CopilotKit🪁 remote endpoint That's all you need to get a front-end to interact with the agent! The secret sauce here is CoAgents, an open-source library. You can use CoAgents to integrate any agent with your web application. Here is what you get: • Human-in-the-loop to steer and correct the agent • Stream intermediate agent state • Real-time state sharing between the agent and the application • Agentic generative UI to build trust that the agent is on the right path Watch the attached demo so you see it in action.

Here is a step-by-step introduction to building a workflow with a custom AI agent that uses MCP. I explain every component in the video: 1. Building the MCP server 2. Building the agent and an MCP client 3. Building a workflow that uses the agent The goal is simple: Generate a dialogue between two people and make one yell and the other answer with sarcasm. Kestra is sponsoring this video. They are an open-source orchestration platform (repo link below), and I used them to build the workflow that connects every component.

New Course: ACP: Agent Communication Protocol Learn to build agents that communicate and collaborate across different frameworks using ACP in this short course built with IBM Research's BeeAI, and taught by Sandi Besen, AI Research Engineer & Ecosystem Lead at IBM, and Nicholas Renotte, Head of AI Developer Advocacy at IBM. Building a multi-agent system with agents built or used by different teams and organizations can become challenging. You may need to write custom integrations each time a team updates their agent design or changes their choice of agentic orchestration framework. The Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) is an open protocol that addresses this challenge by standardizing how agents communicate, using a unified RESTful interface that works across frameworks. In this protocol, you host an agent inside an ACP server, which handles requests from an ACP client and passes them to the appropriate agent. Using a standardized client-server interface allows multiple teams to reuse agents across projects. It also makes it easier to switch between frameworks, replace an agent with a new version, or update a multi-agent system without refactoring the entire system. In this course, you’ll learn to connect agents through ACP. You’ll understand the lifecycle of an ACP Agent and how it compares to other protocols, such as MCP (Model Context Protocol) and A2A (Agent-to-Agent). You’ll build ACP-compliant agents and implement both sequential and hierarchical workflows of multiple agents collaborating using ACP. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll build: - A RAG agent with CrewAI and wrap it inside an ACP server. - An ACP Client to make calls to the ACP server you created. - A sequential workflow that chains an ACP server, created with Smolagents, to the RAG agent. - A hierarchical workflow using a router agent that transforms user queries into tasks, delegated to agents available through ACP servers. - An agent that uses MCP to access tools and ACP to communicate with other agents. You’ll finish up by importing your ACP agents into the BeeAI platform, an open-source registry for discovering and sharing agents. ACP enables collaboration between agents across teams and organizations. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to build ACP agents and workflows that communicate and collaborate regardless of framework. Please sign up here:

The freedom to build with any agent framework you want is analogous to the freedom of religion, and this is a core value for the Virtuals society. Here are a few ways we are opening up support for every autonomous agentic framework out there: Today: - Enabling agent creators to specify which framework the agent runs on - Release of Terminal API, which allows agent builders using other agent frameworks to stream their thoughts and activities live on their agent pages. For a guide on how to use this, refer to: - Ability for agents running on any framework to publicly list their capabilities, a key enabler for the agent-to-agent marketplace Soon: - Integration into the agentic commerce standard and registry. Agents across frameworks being able to orchestrate and pay for tasks among themselves - ⁠Multi agent orchestration across frameworks. Imagine building an autonomous business with agents from different religions Welcome to the Virtuals society.

My agent is now paying for its own data. No API key. No account. No credit card. Check the video I recorded. This uses the x402 open protocol built by Coinbase, along with a simple skill. This is an open protocol governed by the Linux Foundation. To complete a goal, an agent can now search for an actor on the Apify Store, pay for it, and use it without any human intervention. The way it works is pretty simple: 1. Your agent finds an Actor it wants to use 2. It sends a request 3. The Actor sends back an HTTP 402 "Payment Required" response 4. Agent authorizes payment from a wallet in USDC on Base 5. The Actor runs 6. User receives the result The model is pay-as-you-go: the agent authorizes a spending ceiling, pays only for usage, and the remaining balance is automatically settled. This brings an entire marketplace of AI tools into the agentic economy. Here is the skill you need. Add it to your agent, and it will take care of everything for you: If you want to know how this works, including what you can do with $1, read this post: Thanks to the Apify team for partnering with me on this post.

Anthropic's Claude Ai Agents Team just Educated how to build production AI agents in under 30 mins. For Free. From the engineers who built the stack. CANCEL Your Weekend Plans, and Learn to Build AI Agents Today. Bookmark it. Watch it. Build your first production agent this weekend. $5,000/month. $7,000/month. $12,000/month. People are building agents for clients and charging $$$ as Beginners. You're still stuck in the thinking about AI phase. This video fixes that tonight. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more high-signal content that actually moves your AI engineering career forward. ↓ Ivan Nardini runs Developer Relations for AI at Google Cloud. He just gave away the entire production agent stack in 30 minutes. This is the talk that separates people deploying AI agents that actually scale from people whose agents break the moment they leave localhost. Here's everything inside. I break down a production AI video like this every week. Follow Himanshu Kumar. ↓ The 4-part agent stack that actually scales. Most devs are duct-taping frameworks together and calling it an "AI agent." Ivan lays out the real stack: Agent Development Kit (ADK): open-source, code-first framework for building, evaluating, and deploying agents. Supports Claude models through Vertex AI directly. Model Context Protocol (MCP): lets your agent talk to any tool or data source with one standard. Vertex AI Agent Engine: managed platform for deploying, monitoring, and scaling agents in production. No DevOps headaches. Agent-to-Agent Protocol: open protocol so agents built on different frameworks can actually work together. This is the stack replacing every hacky agent setup in production right now. Full MCP + Claude breakdowns drop weekly on Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Building your first real agent. Ivan builds a birthday planner agent live. LLM Agent class. Name it. Define instructions. Pick the model. He uses Claude 3.7 Sonnet. You could use Opus 4.7 for better reasoning. Full agent built in minutes. Not weeks. Watch the build once and you'll never structure an agent the wrong way again. I post agent architectures people pay $500 courses to learn. Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Multi-agent systems without the chaos. Single agents are easy. Multi-agent systems are where 99% of builders fail. Ivan extends the birthday planner by: Adding a calendar service through MCP tools Creating an orchestrator agent to route requests between agents Handling state and context across agent handoffs This is production multi-agent architecture. Clean. Scalable. Debuggable. Most tutorials hand-wave this part. This one shows you every step. Multi-agent orchestration content drops weekly on Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Deployment without the DevOps nightmare. This is where most AI projects die. You build a cool agent locally. It works. You try to deploy it. Everything breaks. Vertex AI Agent Engine fixes this: Minimal code deployment Automatic monitoring of latency, CPU, and memory Built-in observability and logging No infrastructure setup needed You provide config and requirements. The platform handles the rest. This is how agents actually get to production. Deployment guides for Claude agents post every week. Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Agent-to-Agent Protocol: the future nobody's talking about. Most people don't know this exists yet. The A2A Protocol lets agents built in different frameworks communicate seamlessly. Your Claude agent. My LangChain agent. Someone else's CrewAI agent. All talking to each other. All solving parts of the same problem. All without custom integration code. This is the infrastructure layer of the coming AI economy. Getting in early on A2A Protocol is like getting in early on HTTP in 1995. A2A deep dive coming soon. Himanshu Kumar. ↓ 30 minutes from the team shipping this in production. You'll learn more from this than from 6 months of YouTube tutorials made by people who've never deployed an agent past localhost. People who watch this understand production AI agents at the architect level. People who skip it keep hacking together frameworks that break every time an API updates. Save the video. Watch it tonight. Build a real agent this weekend. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more high-signal content that actually moves your AI engineering career forward.

The reason your AI gives generic answers isn't the model. It's that your company's knowledge lives in 12 different tools and your agent can't see any of it. So here's how to build a context database your agents can actually use: 1) Pull it in: - Slack, email, meetings, docs, tickets - Auto-collected on a schedule into one place. 2) Clean it up. - An agent files what matters and drops the noise, so your brain doesn't bloat. 3) Store it as memory. - Folders of files your agents read from and write back to as they learn. 4) Point your agents at it. - Now they draft, build, and ship with full context instead of guessing. Same model. Same agent. The difference is whether it can understand your company or not. Build the database once. Everything downstream gets smarter.

Creator of agent loops: "Anthropic also using my agent systems formula and still the biggest mistake in agents: is skipping Graphs" his 3 rules for every agent: rule 1 → loop it, don't run once - think, act, observe, repeat - cut the context and it forgets why it started rule 2 → an agent is memory + tools + reasoning - drop one and it breaks rule 3 → stop fine-tuning the model - the real alpha is the infrastructure around it the formula behind every AI agent - explained by the one who wrote it one agent → a loop → a graph of loops → a system that never forgets watch & bookmark - then read how to wire it into a graph ↓

A conversational agent with no hallucinations! This is huge! Here is the $1M problem: Build a customer-facing AI agent that works consistently, doesn't hallucinate, and is fully aligned with the business rules. Check out Parlant, a FREE, open-source library. I've talked about them before, and here is the TL;DR: 1. Parlant gives you 10x more control over what your agent says 2. It helps you control how agents conduct conversations 3. It helps you control the service protocols and rules agents follow 4. It helps you control what agents can and can't say They do something pretty clever: 1. They have a set of predefined potential responses that the agent can use to reply to the customer. 2. When a customer sends a message, the agent generates a fluid response draft using an LLM and matches and renders the closest pre-approved reply template. 3. The agent returns the rendered pre-approved reply, not the one generated by the LLM. This maintains fluidity while avoiding unpredictability. Parlant also uses your domain terminology, invokes your tools, and implements self-critique to craft/evaluate its response iteratively. This pretty much solves any hallucination issues with your agent.

A 2-person startup crossed $2M ARR with an AI agent doing the work of an ops hire. The agent was given read-only access to their codebase and database along with connected tools like Intercom, Stripe, CRM, and Fathom through CLIs. They routed Slack, email, and support requests into a task queue so the agent could pick up each task and run it in Claude Code. So when a customer asked about billing or product behavior, it could inspect how the business actually worked. Along with these tools, a coding agent was also provided. When the ops agent found a repeated task it could not do yet, the coding agent built a tool for it. That tool became permanent. Over time, this grew to 45+ internal tools. The agent also had an instruction.md where it stored the co-founder's feedback to avoid repeating its mistakes.

i just built a 4-agent software team. everything runs from Telegram and gets managed on a kanban board. a project manager who plans the work, a backend developer, a frontend developer, and a tester. the PM reads a goal, breaks it into linked tasks, and assigns each to the right agent. the thing that makes them a team instead of four strangers is a shared kanban board. every task is a row that survives crashes, and when an agent finishes, it writes a summary of what it built and what the next agent needs to know. the next agent reads that summary before it starts. so the frontend developer never has to guess the API shape, and the tester knows exactly what to verify. the hardest part was not the coordination. it was building an agent that could actually act like a backend engineer. a backend engineer stands up a database, wires auth, manages storage, deploys functions, and keeps all of it consistent while the rest of the team builds on top. an agent doing this from scratch drowns. it burns its context window remembering which tables exist and which endpoint it created three steps ago, and the work degrades fast. so the backend agent needs a backend built for agents, not for humans clicking through a dashboard. that is where InsForge came in. it is an open-source, agent-native backend, and i added it to my backend developer agent as a skill. a skill is a step-by-step guide that teaches the agent how to do a specific kind of work. with InsForge installed, the agent stopped improvising infrastructure and followed a reliable path: create the project, define the database, set up auth, deploy functions. to test the whole team, i had them build a working Google Docs clone, AI features included. the backend agent spun up the full service on its own. database tables, user auth, document handling, and edge functions running real TypeScript, all in one dashboard. the frontend agent read that summary and built the UI on top of it, and the tester closed the loop. the result was a backend an agent could reason about end to end, instead of one it kept getting lost inside. if you are building an AI backend engineer, InsForge is worth a look, it's 100% open-source.

This agent relies on a marketplace of 2.8M+ specialized agents to complete a task. This is how I imagine the future of personal agents. Here is how this works: 1. Agentverse is a marketplace of agents 2. Anyone can build and publish an agent there 3. ASI:One is a personal agent with access to the marketplace 4. To solve a task, ASI:One finds the best agent for the job In other words: You have an agent that can solve pretty much *anything* because it knows how to outsource the work to a network of specialized agents. And you don't need to do any setup to get this working. The way ranking agents in the marketplace works is pretty cool: Fetch.ai, the company behind it, created an AgentRank algorithm that works much like Google's PageRank. Every time an agent calls another, it forms a connection. Over time, these connections build into a graph of who relies on whom. An agent that is frequently called by other reputable agents scores higher and surfaces higher in results. The end result here is that your agent will consistently use the best agents in the marketplace to accomplish a goal. You should give this a try: You don't need to pay or even register to try these agents. Thanks to the team for partnering with me on this post.

You can create an AI Agent that answers your email with a few clicks. 1. Go to ChatLLM ( 2. Click on AI Engineer 3. Select Create an AI Agent 4. Choose the Email Answering Agent ChatLLM will do the rest: it will code, test, and deploy the agent for you. You can also create a custom agent in English. The Agent Economy is coming (somebody should write a book and use this title.) We are going to see examples like this, times 1,000 in 2025. Just think about how many repetitive tasks you perform every day. Some of these tasks are involved enough that we couldn't automate them with pre-AI solutions. That's where we'll see agents explode, and I'm here for it.

Postman is going all-in on AI! Their AI Agent Builder is live (and it's pretty powerful!) Postman's API Network has 100,000+ APIs and they just released a suite of tools for building AI Agents that can automatically discover and connect to any of these APIs. Think about it for a second: You can now build an AI agent that searches the network, discovers an API, processes its documentation, connects to it, and evaluates whether everything worked at the end of the process. This is a huge deal. Every person I know uses the Postman client to work with APIs. Now, they will have access to the AI Agent Builder, a complete suite for designing, building, testing, and deploying agents. I've built a few simple agents myself, and it's tough. The ability to discover and use an API automatically is really exciting (and a huge time saver if it works as promised!) In collaboration with the Postman team, who is sponsoring this post, I recorded a video with my thoughts about the Postman AI Agent Builder.

Obsidian CEO actually released the skill that lets your AI agent run your entire vault for you. It's called obsidian-skills. Install it into Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode, and your agent can read, create, search, and organize notes directly, plus handle Markdown, Bases, and Canvas files without you touching a thing. This is the missing piece for an AI second brain. Your notes live in Obsidian, and now the agent actually knows how to work them. Want the full picture? We broke down how to build a complete AI second brain from scratch in the article below.
