I’m running Stoke AI — we build and deploy practical AI agents and automations for small local businesses. Already at ~$30k MRR with multiple clients. I grow almost entirely through local interactions, relationships, and referrals. I don’t have a social media presence and don’t want to go that route. I’m looking for a technical partner so I can stay focused on bringing clients that way while someone strong owns the building side. Ideal person: • Has already built and shipped production agents or automations (not just demos) • Comfortable with tools like Hermes, OpenClaw, MCP, integrations, etc. • Wants to focus on building and is fine with me handling client acquisition through local channels and referrals • Open to starting with a short probationary period (paid project or paid trial) so we can both see if it’s a fit before any longer-term partnership talk If this sounds interesting, reply or DM with: 1. A link or short description of 1–2 things you’ve actually built and shipped 2. What kind of partnership structure you’re open to (revenue share, equity, hybrid, etc.) 3. Rough availability I’ll start by reviewing what you’ve built. No long pitches needed up front.

Curious to hear from you all on how you're using AI agents. Are you: > Building AI employees for your own business to help you run more efficiently? > Building and Deploying AI Employees for Other Businesses? (AI automation agency) if you could also let me know the biggest challenges you're facing in the process of all of this, that would be super useful -- based on how you're building and deploying agents, be it for yourself or for others, I'll know how best to create content to help ! Thanks for being here! Super excited to pump out more content and build together :)
