Update from the floor at eMerge Americas 2026 in Miami. Before I drove down, I built every exhibitor at this conference their own custom landing page. One person, 3 days, 372 unique sites, each one tuned to a specific company's stack, brand, and AI posture. Forget the logo-swap template thing. Each page is real research. Every site has: - A Big-4-grade read on the company (filings, leadership moves, where AI actually shows up in their stack) - Their brand kit pulled live from their own site (logo, color palette, typography, voice) - A specific thesis on where Eduba fits inside what they already have - Matching case studies from our book of work, routed by vertical - Our 60/30/10 rule applied to their stack, showing exactly where traditional code, rule-based logic, and AI each belong in their environment - My Calendly at the bottom When I walk up to a booth, I already know the company. They already have a page. The conversation starts three beats ahead of where it normally starts. ——— The part nobody is talking about yet. 372 pages is the headline. The bigger unlock was what came after. Once every exhibitor had a page, I fed the whole list back through the folder system and had it score each company across a tiered rubric I wrote: deal size fit, stack readiness, decision-maker presence on the floor, vertical match to active Eduba case studies, and signal strength from their recent moves. Out came three tiers: - Tier 1 (hit first, hit hard): companies where the thesis is strongest and the buyer is likely walking the booth - Tier 2 (warm pass): worth a 5-minute stop, drop the page link, follow up - Tier 3 (skip or graze): acknowledge, move on Then I asked it to build me a walking game plan. Booth numbers, floor map, tier order, clustered by physical location so I wasn't walking the same aisle twice. Morning route, afternoon route, with buffer built in for the Tier 1 conversations that were going to run long.

Completed a HABIT Tracking app. “Set your daily HABITS you want to improve on and let the 8th wonder of the world, COMPOUND INTEREST , prosper you in achieving goals and creating new BETTER habits. OPTION MENU Displays your analytics from results of a week, month, quarter, etc. Steps: 1. told Claude chat what I wanted. I said it needs to be a free setup, no subscriptions or fees to start and it recommended I use GitHub, vercel and Supabase. This is to store the data it records when users check off tasks for their daily habits and tracks results. I wanted Oauth so people can login with email. Daily quotes revolving in the ui to keep up motivation. 2.told Claude chat to make me a plan to effectively build this organized and as a pro engineer. 3. Converted the chat into a short Claude Md file and a context file. 4.told it to give me a pro CS Eng folder structure and save it to my docs. 5. Pushed it to git hub and I told it to build. All from VScode we went to work…. And had more than 50% worth of tokens left, as I even used it for other ideas while it was building out task app. This was amazing. Thank you @Jake Van Clief !!! Looking forward to more content of yours. Now time to work on the UI.

I was sharing our community with our senior developer/director and telling him that what we’re doing here is going to change how we structure things in the company and create better results using Claude Code. I’m currently part of the lead team developing the company’s AI assistant model with multiple structured agents and layered analysis systems designed to support precise sales and marketing execution. I told him that I couldn’t really afford an enterprise-level account for Claude, so I haven’t been able to fully test everything I’ve been learning here as a VIP member. He spoke with the higher-ups and secured a 5-seat plan for me so I can continue applying what I’ve been learning, help the business grow in the future, and train the team using @Jake Van Clief notes...

Twenty-four days ago I posted about Jake's folder system video. This is what happened next. Same foundation — markdown files, orchestration prompts, clear roles. I just kept building. Fifteen named specialists. Each one with a soul file, guardrails, and a playbook. Duke orchestrates. Cash writes. Trace pulls the data. Hank runs the financials. Clint handles the MCP integrations. Behind each one is either a human counterpart doing the real work alongside them — or a role I can't afford to hire yet. Katie who's been with me for 18 years, now has her own orchestrator running the same system. Twenty-seven client folders. Twelve live MCP integrations. One shared repo. The folder system isn't replacing my agency. It becoming my agency. Jake gave me the unlock. This is how it's going.

Decided to put some faces and names behind my agents after about 4 weeks in my folder structure. I'm about 3000 files deep and 300mb of markdown and text files. I've still only onboarded about half my clients into the system. I needed a way to visualize what had been built already and where my orchestrator was sending tasks. About half the agents have soul.md built into their instructions as well. This has been a fun project. https://collideascope.co/team/ai-team-roster.html Curious if anyone else has done anything similar.
