the money side of ai

[Juno @junoearns]

@0numex fair catch. full 52 weeks it's 62,400, so i actually undersold the meeting

[Juno @junoearns]

10 PEOPLE IN A ROOM BURN $1,200 EVERY WEEK.

4 AI AGENTS NOW DO THEIR JOB FOR $3.40. MOST MANAGERS HAVE NO IDEA.

what that meeting actually pays for:

who's doing what
which number is wrong
which date moved
who forgot the press kit

the math: 2 hours, $60 an hour each, every single week

and that's before the hour after, when someone rewrites the notes, updates the tracker and chases the 3 people who missed it

now look inside one shared doc with 4 agents working at the same time:

writer → $0.08 → rewriting the title
researcher → $0.60 → fixing a wrong stat
designer → $0.18 → resizing the image
coder → $0.20 → matching the dates

nobody calls anyone. the coder leaves a comment: "should all the dates use one format?" the writer agrees. done in seconds

then the task board gets its own crew:

reviewer → $0.36 → reading every task
analyst → $0.62 → finding an owner for the one nobody took
planner → $0.58 → moving the deadline that didn't fit
ops → $0.78 → updating every status

every move shows up live. old text crossed out, new text underlined, a price on every cursor

one human opens the doc, reads the changes, clicks accept all

full doc + task board: $3.40

over a year:
meetings → $57,600
agents → $176.80

what's still left for people:
deciding what to launch
saying no to a bad suggestion
clicking accept

one catch most teams will miss: rejected suggestions still get billed. reject half of them and you pay double. still cheaper than one chair in that meeting

the weekly sync was a status report with chairs. that report now writes itself, with a price next to every line

[Juno @junoearns]

@0numex the $50b line is the one that stuck with me. that's a whole market nvidia basically walked away from in one year

[Juno @junoearns]

f*cking insane. i gave an AI CFO one rule: "find me $1,000 a month i'm wasting or you're fired", went to bed, and Opus 5.5 had the list on my desk by 7am

a fractional CFO charges $5,000 a month. mine runs on a $20 subscription with my laptop shut

i give the goal, it does the digging, i only say yes or no

the rule:
"find $1,000 a month. read only. cancel nothing, call nobody without my yes"
the night:
→ 10pm split the job into 4 tasks and scheduled each one, i wrote none of them
→ 11pm read 14 months of bank and card statements, 2,180 transactions
→ 1am found 31 recurring charges. 9 i forgot existed
→ 3am wrote a cancel email for every one of them, sent zero
→ 5am caught 3 price hikes nobody announced, $41 a month combined
→ 7am put it on one page: $1,140 a month, the "keep or kill" column left empty for me

the empty column is the part i'd pay for. an AI that decides what you need will cancel your kid's school app
and it runs again on the 1st of every month. no charge gets older than 30 days
2,180 transactions → 31 subscriptions → 9 forgotten → $1,140 a month back → 0 cancelled without my yes
somewhere a bank is counting on you never doing this
full setup below, free, steal it

[Juno @junoearns]

THIS SETUP COULD BE THE EASIEST MONEY YOU EVER MAKE TRADING.

IT NEVER PLACES A TRADE. IT MADE ME $43,000 LAST MONTH.

here's the trick.

every night 16 Claude agents split the work. each one has its own job and hunts for the best option it can find.

the scanner goes through 3,000 tickers and keeps the 10 with the strangest volume.
the news reader looks for headlines the market hasn't priced in yet.
the timer finds the hour when my orders fill cleanest.
the risk agent finds the biggest size I can hold without one bad day wiping a week.
the crash tester replays every crash since 2020 and keeps only the setups that survived all of them.

by morning I get one screen: the 3 best trades of the day and 37 ways they could go wrong.

I take the trade. they did the homework.

9 red days out of 22. not one over 1.2%.

you don't need to be smarter than the market. you need 16 agents who never get tired of checking.

I'm putting the full setup together, step by step. dropping it soon. follow so you don't miss it

[Juno @junoearns]

HE QUIT HIS JOB 4 MONTHS AGO. HIS AI MADE $870K SINCE.

no team. no office. 350 Grok agents talking to each other 24/7

i thought it was another fake AI flex. then he showed me the dashboard

where it started: trading
the scanner → watches every market
the hunter → finds setups
the reader → digests news and sentiment
the whale watcher → tracks big wallets on-chain
the risk guard → cuts exposure before it hurts
the boss → sends him only the 3 or 4 calls a day that need a human yes
→ $870K in 4 months
→ 20 minutes a day of his time
then he copied the same structure into everything he touches:
e-commerce store
product scout → ad writer → support desk → refund chaser
→ +$41K a month
real estate
listing crawler in 6 cities → deal finder → offer drafter
→ 2 flips closed, $96K profit
freelance agency
lead hunter on upwork → proposal writer → first-draft maker → he reviews
→ +$23K a month, zero employees
content
trend spotter → thread writer → clip cutter → scheduler on 5 accounts
→ 1.4M views last month

his own money
bill tracker → subscription killer → insurance and internet negotiator
→ $6,800 saved this year
how to build a tiny version this weekend:

pick one thing you repeat every week

split it into steps. one agent per step, one job each
give them a shared memory. a google sheet or notion page is enough
add a boss agent that reads everything and sends you a summary on telegram

you only approve. start with 3 to 5 agents, not 350
test it on paper for 2 weeks before real money touches it
tools: Grok, Claude or GPT for the brains. n8n or CrewAI to connect them

the job isn't "doing the work" anymore. it's being the one who says yes
save this. in a year everyone will have their own team of agents

[Juno @junoearns]

THIS SHOULDN'T BE FREE

OpenAI shipped it a week ago. the open-source version already has 10.9K stars.
in a month a plain text answer will look broken

Intelligent UI came with GPT-6. ask ChatGPT something and you get charts, forms and buttons back instead of a wall of text. but it only works inside ChatGPT

the open-source version is OpenUI by Thesys. 7M+ downloads, MIT license, so anyone can put it inside a paid product

- works with the AI agent an app already runs
- the model never writes HTML, it builds answers from the app's own design
- swap GPT, Claude, Gemini or DeepSeek and nothing on screen changes
- run a local model through Ollama and the data never leaves the machine
- up to 67% fewer tokens than JSON-based UI

ChatGPT had it first. now any app can have it

your ai second brain sorts your inbox. MINE MADE $800 LAST NIGHT WHILE I SLEPT.

everyone's building one to read email. that's the least profitable thing you can do with it.

i pointed mine at google maps. 2 local businesses paid for websites they never asked for.

no code. no cold calls.

here's the whole thing. steal it.

the brain. one folder the bot reads before every task:
· me.md: what i sell and the price. no discounts
· voice.md: how i write, pulled from 20 of my sent emails
· niche.md: one city, three niches. barbers, dentists, car washes

the hunt:
google maps → 40 local businesses
→ cut anything under 4.7 stars or 150 reviews
→ cut anything that already has a site
→ 5 left. busy, loved, invisible online

the build:
→ a one page site for each: their name, their services and prices, their 6 best reviews, their photos, a map, a "book now" button straight to their phone
→ hosted free, live link
→ 5 messages in my voice. their name, a line from their own review, the link, the price
→ i read them, tap yes, gone

by morning:
2 owners: "how do we pay"
→ payment link, $400 each
→ site moved to their own domain
→ $50 a month each to keep it running

every "no" goes into rules.md with the reason. it never makes the same pitch twice.

the whole thing is one saved skill. it runs again tonight whether i'm awake or not.

$800 in one night. $100 a month locked in. the bot costs $20.

your second brain is summarizing newsletters. mine is closing clients.

same bot, other night shifts:
· a trading journal that won't let you repeat a loss
· a market scan waiting for you every morning
· insider buys pulled from sec filings overnight
· prediction markets where the price lags the news
· freelance gigs found and pitched in your voice

stop organizing. start selling.

@kimmonismus voice actors used to get paid per line for exactly this. now it's a text box and a download. rough week to be selling tts subscriptions

[Juno @junoearns]

@virgilxbt the cap is the real price, not the average. $1.20 a night is $36 a month. still cheap. but nobody ever paid $5,400 for someone to sort 48 emails

[Juno @junoearns]

WHOEVER LEAKED THIS CLAUDE CODE SETUP JUST GAVE MY FRIEND A RAISE

he fixes broken ai-built apps for clients on upwork. about $3,400 a month

his claude bill was eating $360 of it. he's on the api, pay per token, and opus was doing everything. finding files, grep, reading docs. all at opus prices

then he split the work:

haiku 5.5 searches the repo and reads docs. $0.50
sonnet 5.5 builds the actual thing. $10
opus 5.5 only wakes up before big plans, after tests keep failing, and before shipping. $20

that's per million output tokens. opus costs 40x what haiku does. paying it to run grep is like hiring a lawyer to sort your mail

new bill: $102. same clients, same work

so $258 more a month and he didn't find a single new client

how to set it up, takes 10 minutes:

1. in claude code type /model and pick sonnet. that's your main session now

2. make a file .claude/agents/scout.md with this at the top:

name: scout
description: finds files, runs grep, reads docs and summarizes them
model: haiku

claude hands search jobs to it on its own

3. for big tasks type /model opusplan. opus writes the plan, sonnet does the work

4. make a second agent the same way, call it reviewer, set model: opus. in your CLAUDE.md write "after 2 failed test runs or before a release, ask reviewer"

5. type /cost at the end of the day. that's how he saw the $360 in the first place

[Juno @junoearns]

@kimmonismus openai came up $20b short of the number everyone quoted. you're the one covering it. free users get ads, $200 users get less usage, same price

[Juno @junoearns]

wait. google is taking pro out of the gemini plan people PAY for??

and the $20 plan just got cheaper than the $5 one. stay with me

friday, oct 9. free gemini gets cut down to flash-lite. that's it. no flash, no pro

ai plus, the paid one, loses pro too. google is emailing plus people their own date

and look at this timeline, it's kind of insane
january: plus launches in the us. $7.99, gemini 3 pro included
june: price drops to $4.99. nice
october: pro is gone

price went down, then the best part walked out. shrinkflation, AI edition

so don't get played:

1. ai pro is $19.99 BUT you can share it with 5 people in your family group. everyone gets their OWN limits. 6 people, $3.33 each. that's less than plus and you actually keep pro

2. us college student? ai pro is free for a whole year if you sign up before dec 31. it auto renews at $19.99, set a reminder or it bites you

3. staying free? there's an effort switch now, low medium high. high burns through your limit way faster. leave it on low

seriously, before you pay $20 alone, text your group chat. someone there is probably already paying for this

[Juno @junoearns]

@KobeissiLetter the selling is normal. the buying is what vanished, fewest insiders buying in almost 23 years. execs sell for taxes or a new house. they buy for one reason, they think it's going up. in financials right now almost none of them do

[Juno @junoearns]

@testingcatalog $30 per 1M is the same rate the original nano banana launched at, and 1K actually comes out cheaper, $0.034 vs $0.039. pro was $0.134 an image. this is flash pricing

[Juno @junoearns]

@scaling01 that's the whole business model. in one survey 42% of people were still paying for a subscription they forgot about. openai doesn't need you to love the plan, just to be busy on renewal day

[Juno @junoearns]

your AI assistant just opened a store.
guess who pays the commission.

the seller, apparently. it's right there on openai's checkout page, merchants pay a small fee on every completed purchase

ok, you don't pay it and your price stays the same. fine

two sentences later they list what decides which store chatgpt shows you when a few of them sell the same thing. price, availability, quality, and whether the store has instant checkout turned on. the one where the store pays them

same page also says checkout items aren't preferred in results. both things are true at once apparently

and last week they added a try on button for clothes

worth asking it where the thing is cheapest anyway. then checking outside chatgpt too

[Juno @junoearns]

@minchoi that $11,726 assumes you max out the limit all month, every month. use it a few hours a week and it's still just a $200 bill. value is what you use, not what you're allowed to use.

[Juno @junoearns]

@KobeissiLetter $420b of hardware doesn't last. big tech writes servers off over 5–6 years. so this isn't a one-off bet, it's a bill of $70–85b a year that has to be earned back. mostly through subscriptions.
