A rule I added recently: every build starts with a UI/UX design pass before any code gets written.

Coding agents will happily build the wrong screen fast. A design review up front costs less than a rebuild.

Setup tip from putting agents in front of busy owners: have the agent ask one question at a time, with tap-to-answer options.

Better still, have it propose the answer and ask the owner to confirm. A yes takes two seconds. A blank form waits for the weekend.

A rule I set for my own assistants: don't hand me a checklist of clicks.

I sign in to my accounts. The assistant does the rest of the setup, and I approve the steps that matter one at a time.

One build for a local pet business: an iPad check-in at the front desk.

Drop-off: type your phone number, see today's pet and service, confirm. Pickup works the same way. Staff see the status change in the booking system they already use.

No payments, no texting.

On Oct 29 I made Grok the default model for Zilla OS and our CRM module. The reason is simple: agents make a lot of model calls, and Grok costs less to run.

We still pick models per job. The default is just where work starts.

None of this is clever. It's what I learned in manufacturing: written specs, inspection before anything ships, and a record of who decided what. Same discipline, new machinery.

I run Zilla Labs with a team of 20+ AI agents: builds, client work, research and back office.

People ask how that doesn't turn into chaos. A few rules do most of the work. 🧵

[ALZiLLA @al_zilla]

4) Costs stay visible. Each client gets its own API keys so I can see what their work costs, and model calls run under a daily spend cap.

Lately I've been setting up Grok Bot for local businesses: a pet business, a photo and video studio, a barbershop, an HVAC contractor and a general contractor.

Over the next few weeks I'll post what each setup looks like. By type of business, no names.

[ALZiLLA @al_zilla]

Before AI, I spent 20+ years in engineering, product development and manufacturing. I founded a company in 2005, earned 20+ patents, and sold it in 2023.

Now I build Zilla Labs and set up AI agents for local businesses. I'll share what I set up and what I learn here.
