So built this executive assistant to get me leads and once those leads are obtained, build their customer avatars based on the industry they are in. For now, i asked it to give the option between both paid and open source options for leads. I tested it for instagram leads research with just free tier to run a test, got an IP warning (lol) and the agent asked to take it easy and that it needs a refresh after 4 hours. But built a new highly detailed skill to get the leads of business sources from web and the results on that front were good. Once the leads are built, customer profiles were built and on front the executive assistant had no hiccup. Will expand on this in the future but like giving control to the email api to send leads but for now leaving it here.... #AISChallenge

Just generated the report schedule to give me an analysis of free models in .md file and token providers available on the daily basis, instead of scheduling an email report or get calender reminders... Really great feature though, and looking forward to exploring what else I can do with it in the future. #AISChallenge

As an early-stage founder building workflows, I'm constantly trying to figure out which core model is actually worth paying for. A few months back I started with ChatGPT Plus, then ended up switching to Claude Pro. Now with all these constant model updates dropping, I catch myself wanting to jump back to ChatGPT for its image generation capabilities and features, especially ASTRA, that beat out Opus or Fable. ​The real problem hits when you are trying to keep overhead low and can only justify ONE main paid subscription a month. ​Once your budget goes to your primary LLM, how are you building the rest of your tech stack for free? Dedicated platforms for voice and video generation get super expensive really fast. I run into this constraint constantly, and I know plenty of early founders, clients, and solo builders facing the exact same setup bottleneck. ​So I'm curious to hear from the builders here: What are your favorite zero-dollar tools, free-tier APIs, or open-source GitHub repos that you actually rely on to connect image, voice, or video into your tech stacks without pulling out a credit card? ​Drop your favorite free setups below! I'm always up for a good conversation about building lean, so feel free to hit me up in my inbox anytime.

So this one gave me a mild heart attack 😅. Ran this using the firecrawl CLI ( because firecrawl mcp was too easy) for jobs available on glassdoor, and i was under the impression i could reduce token or credits usage even more or as far as i read on it. But somehow ended up spending 22 credits on the first run. Thankfully didnt have to run again, but would find other alternatives because this seems like a great tool to find leads #AISChallenge

Since a Windows update on September 8, Claude's workspace Cowork on Windows can no longer reliably reach drive C. Anthropic confirms the problem through its own error message in the interface and is working on a fix. The background: for files, Cowork uses a small Linux sandbox that mounts folders via a Windows share, and it is exactly this mounting that has been failing since the update. → No more reliable access to drive C → PDFs can no longer be opened in projects, because their renderer sits in the same blocked sandbox According to the notice, Claude Code is not affected. For everyday use of these tools that means: anyone working with Cowork on local files or PDFs under Windows should currently expect failures until Anthropic ships the fix. On top of that comes an observation that stands independently of this: Claude on Windows is currently also said to lag behind the Mac version in speed and response quality. Have you already run into this Cowork bug on Windows yourselves, or has everything been running smoothly for you so far? 👇
