how to use perplexity computer to spin up digital employees that automate your work 24/7 1. connect your email. give it a list of prospects, what you sell, and your tone. it finds the right contact at each company the person who actually signs deals), researches their pain points, and drafts outreach that sounds like you 2. ask it "what am I not asking you that could make me more money?" it told me to monitor competitors weekly, build follow-up sequences on day 3 and day 7, and target companies whose budgets are already hot. one prompt changed the whole session. 3. set up daily competitor monitoring. pick 5 competitors. every morning it checks their pricing, features, content, and X mentions. changes get summarized. silence when nothing moves. delivered to your inbox at 8am. 4. need to fundraise? describe your startup once. it builds a 50-VC spreadsheet with fund size, thesis fit, the right partner, and their recent activity. 5. turn a podcast episode or loom video into a blog post, tweetable quotes, and a carousel. one upload. 6. reverse engineer any competitor's SEO strategy or pricing page. see exactly where you're leaving money on the table. 7. hiring? describe the role. it finds and ranks 50 candidates in minutes. 8. it orchestrates 19 models in parallel. one for reasoning, one for code, one for research, one for images. it picks the best model for each step automatically. 9. start thinking in recurring workflows that compound every day without you (this is relevant for perplexity computer or any tool you use) episode is live on @startupideaspod (full live walkthrough) send this to a friend who keeps saying they want to start using AI agents. watch

Ads are coming to AI. But not to Claude. Keep thinking.

I don’t have notifications on for many apps: it’s only for the very few that never abuse them. Some marketing or growth hacking person at Revolut has now achieved me turning off all Revolut notifications, after sending what I consider spam. Non actionable, just plain junk.

this is probably one of the most powerful subagent for openclaw... doesn't matter if you're an agency owner, a content creator or running an ecom brand... you have an ICP so build an agent that literally IS your ideal customer here's how: > train it on meeting transcripts, slack messages, tweet replies, youtube comments... anywhere your target audience talks in THEIR language > have it monitor subreddits, groups, forums weekly so it evolves with your market > every time you write a piece of content, a new ad or a new offer... run it through this agent first the feedback you're getting from this is extremely valuable, because it's not giving you what you want to hear... it's giving you what your buyer actually thinks

someone from my team just sent me this and... 🤯 4 years ago @beehiiv was just a crazy idea and now it's the home for some of the most popular newsletters in the world (including @Schwarzenegger) ! and so many more that we couldn't fit… build dope things for dope people 🤙

Nano Banana smart prompt: Typographic ad / poster design Works with: - automotive - sport - beverage and other products Prompt 👇

This is the new emdash. A dead giveaway of ChatGPT writing. That’s not efficient writing. That’s laziness.

Feels like Cloudflare also cannot resist the temptation of growth hacking. Their launch post states that vinext has been deployed to prod, and later in the post, they backpedal to admit it's not production-ready. Disappointingly disingenuous from Cloudflare

every single article i've written with 1M+ views wasn't actually written by me... i just used my phone to dictate it because the truth is... your brain doesn't think in text it never did, it thinks in connections, in patterns, in half-formed ideas that make perfect sense until you try to type them out and the moment your fingers hit a keyboard, you stop thinking and start performing because every sentence gets filtered through "does this sound good?" so i started using Wispr Flow to dictate all my first drafts... here's what my process looks like now: > i go for a walk, open the app on my phone > talk through the entire article like i'm explaining it to someone who asked a great question > Wispr Flow captures it all in real time, cleans out the filler words, formats it into actual paragraphs > 15 minutes later i have a draft on my phone that reads like something i'd publish, not a messy transcript i need to spend an hour cleaning up then i work on the the structure, ask claude for refinements, rewrite some parts and publish... that's a full article, under an hour when you speak, you don't overthink that directness hits different because readers can feel it... there's a natural rhythm in spoken thought that you cannot recreate by typing carefully, no matter how good you are been running this system on desktop and iphone for months, Wispr Flow just launched on android too, so it works on every device now if you create content and you still spend more time staring at a blank page than actually producing... speak your next article, your best writing was never in your fingers, it was always in your voice

One way Timex made their watches cheap was to cut the retail markup in half. Jewelers resisted, so they sold their watches off racks in drugstores.

the attention economy is dead. it's the trust economy now.

First, the good part of the Anthropic ads: they are funny, and I laughed. But I wonder why Anthropic would go for something so clearly dishonest. Our most important principle for ads says that we won’t do exactly this; we would obviously never run ads in the way Anthropic depicts them. We are not stupid and we know our users would reject that. I guess it’s on brand for Anthropic doublespeak to use a deceptive ad to critique theoretical deceptive ads that aren’t real, but a Super Bowl ad is not where I would expect it. More importantly, we believe everyone deserves to use AI and are committed to free access, because we believe access creates agency. More Texans use ChatGPT for free than total people use Claude in the US, so we have a differently-shaped problem than they do. (If you want to pay for ChatGPT Plus or Pro, we don't show you ads.) Anthropic serves an expensive product to rich people. We are glad they do that and we are doing that too, but we also feel strongly that we need to bring AI to billions of people who can’t pay for subscriptions. Maybe even more importantly: Anthropic wants to control what people do with AI—they block companies they don't like from using their coding product (including us), they want to write the rules themselves for what people can and can't use AI for, and now they also want to tell other companies what their business models can be. We are committed to broad, democratic decision making in addition to access. We are also committed to building the most resilient ecosystem for advanced AI. We care a great deal about safe, broadly beneficial AGI, and we know the only way to get there is to work with the world to prepare. One authoritarian company won't get us there on their own, to say nothing of the other obvious risks. It is a dark path. As for our Super Bowl ad: it’s about builders, and how anyone can now build anything. We are enjoying watching so many people switch to Codex. There have now been 500,000 app downloads since launch on Monday, and we think builders are really going to love what’s coming in the next few weeks. I believe Codex is going to win. We will continue to work hard to make even more intelligence available for lower and lower prices to our users. This time belongs to the builders, not the people who want to control them.

The highest-paying job in tech will soon be marketing.

Tailwind lays of 75% of their team. the reason is so ironic: > their css framework became extremely popular w AI coding agents, 75m downloads/mo > that meant nobody would visit their docs where they promoted paid offerings > resulting in 40% drop in traffic & 80% revenue loss
