I'm Paul from the UK. I recently joined because I enjoy connecting with people who are building businesses, trying new ideas, and learning from one another. Looking forward to getting involved, learning from the discussions here, and hopefully contributing where I can. Excited to be part of the community! 😊

Today I learned how four Claude connectors can build powerful AI workflows. Then I looked for free alternatives. The result surprised me. Instead of paid tools, I would use: - n8n instead of Zapier. - Google AI Studio and ComfyUI instead of Higgsfield. - Apollo Free and Hunter instead of Clay. - Supabase Free for long-term memory. The biggest lesson was not about the tools. It was that knowing how to connect them matters more than paying for them. What free AI tool has completely replaced a paid one in your workflow?

How do you find and validate your ideas? Do you vibecode?

This time I gave it a much more detailed prompt instead of just describing the video in one or two lines. I asked it to analyze my website, understand the business, write the marketing script, match the branding, create the voiceover, add transitions, animations, music, and render the final promo video. The result was noticeably better than my first test. The colors looked cleaner, the animations felt smoother, the voiceover sounded more natural, and the overall pacing was much more polished. It felt closer to something I'd actually send to a client. One thing I'm starting to notice is that the quality of the output seems to improve as the prompt becomes more specific. The more direction you give, the less fixing you need afterwards. Still testing, but it's changing how I'm thinking about AI video creation. Has anyone else noticed the same thing with HyperFrames, or are you keeping your prompts pretty minimal?

Got a client task today to scrape all property listing URLs from a real estate website. At first I searched for Chrome extensions on Google, tested multiple tools… but most either broke, missed links, or had limits. So instead of wasting more time, I used Hermes + AI tools to build my own URL scraper Chrome extension. Result: Scrapes every URL from the page in seconds One-click extraction No manual copy-paste anymore Funny thing:Building the extension took me around 30 minutes… But doing the task manually would’ve taken almost 2 DAYS 😅 That’s the moment I realized: Learning AI agents + browser automation is becoming a real leverage skill. Built with: • Plasmo • Cursor AI • Hermes Agent workflow • Chrome MV3 Now testing more scraping + automation workflows 🚀
