Hey Architects, In this video, I’m walking you through the strategy behind building a new faceless video automation. Here’s what most people get wrong with automations: They jump into building without a plan. That’s why most automations don't work well or don't live up to their promise. Here's what I cover in this video: ✅ A practical framework for planning before building ✅ The strategy behind faceless content automation ✅ Key features that make this system scalable ✅ How to approach automation like a product, not a hack If you’re tired of recycled templates that don’t teach you how to think — and want to build systems that actually work — this one’s worth your time. I'll drop the planning document into the classroom soon.

Hey Architects! Almost every single day, I get excited about a new tool. I dive in, start using it, getting comfortable with the workflow. Then—without fail—someone sends me another tool that's even better, more polished, something I had no idea existed. It's equally frustrating and exciting. Sure, sometimes you realize you just spent days on something when there was a better way all along. But here's what's really happening: new and better things are coming out all the time. The pace is incredible. And if you have the right mentality about this constant evolution, you can really do something big. Or bigger than you're probably thinking right now. I'm not saying you need to build the next Amazon. I'm not saying you need to revolutionize an entire industry. But I do think most of us—myself included—think way smaller than we should. We let our insecurities hold us back. Our need to know everything before we start. Our need to find the perfect path or feel totally comfortable before we make a move. We allow these things to limit us in ways we shouldn't. Some of us limit ourselves more than others. Some are naturally more free. But I think in most of us, there's something we could unlock if we were just a little less afraid, a little less controlling, a little more willing to give up some comfort. Because this is a special time in technology. There's this gap right now between what was traditionally possible and what just a single person can accomplish in a day. My guess is that over the next few years, this gap might close. The Wild West phase might end. But right now? Right now it's wide open. Here's what I know for sure: the one thing you need to launch any cool idea is traffic. You need people. You need eyeballs on what you're building. Building it might actually be the easy part now. Getting people to see it? That's the whole other story. And that takes content. There's this company called Cluely—started by a kid who was apparently cheating on his coding exams to get a job, and now he's built a company from that. One thing he's doing that caught my attention: everyone he hires isn't just a developer. They're developers who are also content creators.

Hey guys! Just had to share this week’s win. After hitting Level 4, I fully set up the NCA Toolkit — first on Digital Ocean and Google Cloud, but ended up sticking with just Google. Then I wrapped up the KEDB flow and customized it to fit my own workflows. And the cherry on top? I sold an automation to a medical startup that generates 842 icons with ChatGPT and converts them into SVGs. The workflow is based on a KEDB-inspired structure: clear initialization and action blocks — simple, transparent, controllable. The client can review and tweak results at every stage. That alone cuts the budget by at least 3× — and what used to take weeks now gets done in just 14 hours. Client’s thrilled. I’m over the moon. Love you all! 💥

Well that was a fun little course. Picked up on a few things I didn't know along the way and overall it was great for some revision and putting in reps to solidify concepts in my mind. Now on to building the Kontent Engine DB :)

Hey Architects, The new n8n quick start course is live RIGHT HERE. Would of course love to know what you think, and what you might like to see in Level 2. We can always add-on and make it better as a group!!
