I'm curious, what are you working on in 2026? Are you building anything with AI or working on automation something in your life in order to save time and gain more freedom? I recently broke down a few goals of mine into little steps I am not tracking on a day to day basis. Then another member here on Skool sparked the idea to automate that tracker and now I am doing that whenever I have a little spare time. That's what I am working on at the moment

It’s always a good time to look back at what we’ve actually pulled off this past year and map out where we’re taking things in the next one. I’m honestly so proud that we got The AI Edge off the ground in 2025. Even though we’ve only been around for three months, the growth and the wins I’ve seen from you guys already is wild. You might’ve noticed I’ve been a little quiet the last two weeks. Part of that is because we’ve been grinding behind the scenes to make this the #1 community for any business owner who wants to actually scale using automations. We have some massive moves and big changes coming your way very soon. But on a personal note, I also got a little distracted by some life-changing news... I finally popped the question! 💍 I’m dropping a photo of me and my new fiancée below because I wanted to share the moment with you guys. Stay locked in—2026 is going to be a huge year for all of us. Cheers, Mithuran

Huge shoutout to the Top 5 Members of The AI Edge for December! Building a Zero-Employee Enterprise isn’t about a single "magic prompt"—it’s about the relentless habit of auditing your day and replacing manual drag with AI systems. These 5 members dominated the leaderboard this month by troubleshooting workflows, sharing their wins, and showing the rest of us what "moving the needle" actually looks like: 1️⃣ @Malcolm Duvivier 2️⃣ @Tyler Woodcock 3️⃣ @Marcus The Oddball Genius 4️⃣ @Simon Schörkhuber 5️⃣ @Ankita Dobariya To the rest of the community: The momentum in this group is incredible. We’re seeing a shift from "AI experimentation" to AI implementation. You aren't just playing with tools anymore; you are architecting systems that buy back your time. That is exactly why we are here. We don’t just track the news; we build the habits that allow us to scale revenue while keeping our headcount at zero. January is about hitting the gas. Let’s get back to the build. — Mithuran

In 2026, the task of generating marketing posters and advertisements has shifted from manual graphic design to autonomous "creative automation" pipelines. These digital robots use multimodal AI agents to perform complex, end-to-end workflows: first, they scrape the internet for real-time cultural trends and competitor data to identify what resonates with a specific audience; next, they utilize generative models like AdCreative.ai or Canva Magic Media to instantly produce dozens of high-fidelity visual variations, adjusting colors, layouts, and copy to match a brand’s unique voice. Beyond simple creation, these agents act as real-time optimizers, automatically deploying different versions of an ad across social media platforms and using A/B testing data to kill underperforming designs while scaling winners. This "robot task" effectively transforms marketing from a weeks-long human drafting process into a 24/7 self-evolving loop that can generate a "block-by-block" personalized ad campaign in under a minute.

Happy New Year, AI Edge! 🥂 As the clock ticks over into 2026, I’m sitting here with immense gratitude - not just as a member of this amazing group, but as a co-founder of Stack Era. This past year was a testament to the power of building in the open and learning in community. The conversations, feedback, and sheer brainpower in this community have been incredible. Many of the insights we’ve gained here have directly shaped how we think about software, development, and solving real problems for our clients at Stack Era. For us, 2025 was a year of solid growth, tough challenges, and brilliant breakthroughs. We shipped features we’re proud of, navigated complex puzzles, and, most importantly, helped our partners bring their visions to life through code. As we step into 2026, our resolution is simple: Build with even more intention. To create software that isn’t just functional, but foundational for the businesses that trust us. I want to personally thank this community for being a source of inspiration and sharp thinking. The energy here is contagious. Cheers, George Fox Co-Founder, Stack Era 📌 https://stackera.space/
