Automate Everything: Demystifying AI Agents with Jacob Bank
How One CEO Runs an Entire Company Solo Using 40 AI Agents
Jacob Bank, founder and CEO of Relay.app, shares how he single-handedly handles all non-product functions of his company by using over 40 AI agents. These agents autonomously complete tasks like marketing, sales, support, and finance, enabling him to run what traditionally requires a whole team by himself. He emphasizes that each AI agent handles simple workflows, such as automatically drafting LinkedIn posts from YouTube video transcripts, with human oversight for quality.
Bank highlights that AI is underhyped rather than overhyped and insists that anyone who can think in flowcharts can create AI agents to automate their workflows. He also stresses the critical professional skill of learning how to break down tasks into workflows and automate them with AI, especially for solopreneurs and small business owners who have limited resources. This approach allows small teams or even individuals to be more productive than larger teams by smartly leveraging AI.
