Hermes agent ya mató el modelo de suscripciones de IA hace meses.

No entiendo por qué la gente sigue pagando $20 al mes solo para que les corten el acceso a mitad de mes.

Deja de quemar dinero en tres errores que casi todos cometen:

1. Usar modelos frontier para TODO
2. Hablar con el agente por telegram o discord (infla brutalmente los tokens)
3. Empezar desde cero cada vez porque no tiene memoria

Hermes soluciona los tres de golpe:

- Conecta con +300 modelos. Pon DeepSeek V4 Flash como default ($0.14 por millón de tokens de entrada). Solo usa Claude o GPT cuando realmente lo necesites. En el 80% de las tareas obtienes prácticamente el mismo resultado por 30x menos.

- Usa la versión CLI en vez del gateway. Los chats de Telegram/Discord mandan 15k-20k tokens solo de definiciones de herramientas. La CLI usa 6k-8k. Mismo resultado, mucho menos costo.

- Activa la memoria persistente y la generación de skills. Cada tarea compleja que resuelve se convierte en un skill reutilizable. Después de 30 días hace tareas similares un 40% más rápido → quemas 40% menos tokens.

- Correlo en un VPS barato (Hetzner CX22 cuesta $4/mes). Funciona 24/7, se hiberna cuando no lo usas y los costos bajan con el tiempo en vez de subir.

Comparación real:
- Suscripción normal: $20/mes + límites + memoria borrada cada sesión
- Setup Hermes: $5-10/mes + sin límites + cada vez más barato y más inteligente

Deberias estar usando hermes con provedores de IA gratis.

Cuánto estás gastando actualmente en IA al mes??

I built an iPhone farm software that runs your TikTok and Instagram accounts on autopilot.

Real taps. Real devices. No APIs. No bots.

It incubates fresh accounts to aged account warmup state automatically.

Draft or post directly from your own iPhones.

And you only need 1 Mac and 1 iPhone to set it up.

Free for the next 7 days.

Comment "Warmr" and I'll send you an invite.

@denohawari GEO

[deno @denohawari]

we helped a consumer language app add $400K in revenue in 3 months, with no ads

all through GEO, the cheapest growth channel B2C apps have right now

everyone's still pouring money into paid:

• Meta and TikTok ads
• influencer campaigns
• rising CAC on every channel
those work until the costs climb, and they always climb

we went the other way and put the app where people were already searching for a solution

that took them from 0 to 2,100 organic clicks a day, and $400K in new revenue, with no ad spend behind it

I broke down the exact system:

• how we found the high-intent searches before competitors did
• the programmatic engine that captured demand at scale
• the content that turned searchers into paying users
• how we built authority across Google and AI search
most B2C founders still haven't adapted to how people discover apps now

that gap is the whole opportunity, and it won't stay open long

want the document?

just follow me + comment "GEO" and I'll send it over

I just added an MCP for @trust_mrr 🤖🔗🤖

It's a wrapper around the public API to fetch startups listed with their revenue, MRR, marketing channels, etc.

The final step is to build a ChatGPT App around the MCP.

I want TrustMRR to be an AI agent first marketplace, and I thought it would be pretty cool to ask "find me the best startup deal under $100K to acquire" 😎

[Jacob Rodri @jacobrodri_]

Just found the best tutorial to set up a web funnel and avoid Apple’s 30% cut

If you make $100k/month:

- Without a web funnel: $70k/month net
- With a web funnel: $100k/month net

If you want to implement it I’ll leave the tutorial below

[Open Book @carlmonkft]

Fuck it

here's my tiktok account with all my ads https://t.co/19r105wMgt

I quit my 5k MRR app so i dont need this anymore

Yes, all my ads are spark ads. Spark > regular

Just copy me and thank me later

6 of the biggest health and wellness apps
pivoted to web2app funnels years ago

What they have in common:
- Noom: ~$80M+/mo, $1B ARR in 2023
- Flo: ~$23M/mo, 50% via web funnels
- Calm: ~$17M/mo via quiz onboarding
- Headway: $13M/mo, live since 2020
- BetterMe: $100M+/yr across funnels
- Zing Coach: scaled from $0 on web

@web2wave_com has over $10M in payments processed and lets you connect with 100+ payment processors

Their experience is 7,300+ quizzes
and 6,000+ paywalls built on a Figma like style editor for full visual control w/o code

it's literally the standard
at the highest level

New skill: /improve-animations

Inspired by @shadcn’s improve skill I made one specifically for animations.

Use your most capable model to audit animations in your project and hand the execution to cheaper models.

Fable is available through July 12, so make good use out of it!

[GREG ISENBERG @gregisenberg]

I met a 19 year old who makes $200,000+ building apps with AI and he can't even code.

1 year ago he was literally working at TJ Maxx.

He made a deck called "How to scale your app to $10k/month (easy mode)" and gave away the entire playbook on the pod:

1. Pick an idea you're actually passionate about. He proved this the hard way. The app he hated got 1.8M views and made $35. The app he loved made $17,000. Same month.

2. Build one "gotcha feature" anyone gets in 5 seconds. Take a picture of food, get calories. That's the whole pitch. 90% of distribution is nailing this. Gotcha features that include AI are working a lot right now.

3. Onboarding is where the money is. Educate, add social proof, personalize to create sunk cost, then hit them with FOMO right before the paywall.

4. Your IG is both a sales funnel for users and your credibility when pitching influencers. Three demos, clean bio, collab posts.

5. Distribution is a numbers game. Tailor your feed to your ideal customer, scroll and DM all day, hire a VA, get creators on the phone fast.

His name @GeorgeLampro20. It was fun hearing him share what is working in real-time from his POV.

Might get your creative juices flowing if building mobile apps with AI is exciting to you.

I love how simple his deck he showed is.

I love Hermes Agent and Gemini Live is also one of my for voice conversation, so over the weekend I built a small vibe-coding project that brings the two together called IRIS.

The idea is simple: Gemini Live becomes the conversational interface, while Hermes Agent handles execution, automation, and long-running tasks behind the scenes.

I can talk to Gemini naturally, and whenever something needs real work, Gemini formulates the request and hands it off to Hermes. The best part is that the conversation never stops. Gemini keeps talking with me naturally while Hermes works in the background.

When Hermes finishes, Gemini proactively tells me the results are ready, switches context to the Hermes output, helps me review it, and then we return to our normal conversation. That manager/worker flow feels really good.

Because I wanted the app to be as hands-free as possible, I also added a camera-based gesture layer using MediaPipe Gesture Recognizer. I can point at Hermes task cards, open details, scroll through results with my hand, and close them using gestures.

Small weekend project, but I had a lot of fun building it. Also, the anti-flicker macOS app I vibe-coded yesterday ended up being incredibly useful for this project. It fixed my webcam flickering issue, so I can finally record videos properly. 🙂

Heatmap MCP is LIVE 🚀The future isn't more analytics.
It's knowing what to do next.

For years, ecommerce teams have had no shortage of data:
→ Heatmaps
→ Funnels
→ Session recordings
→ Analytics
→ Revenue reports

The challenge was never collecting it.

The challenge was turning it into decisions.

Why did conversion rate drop?
Where are shoppers getting stuck?
What should we test next?
What deserves attention first?

Today, Heatmap can connect directly to AI tools, allowing teams to ask questions and get answers from their behavioral and revenue data in seconds.

Not because AI needs more data.

Because ecommerce teams need more clarity.

We're moving from dashboards that tell you what happened to systems that help you decide what to do next.

It still works. And if you’re already in the US, there’s no need to use a VPN, just optimize by using your SIM card’s mobile data.
