Really cool product. How do you plan to monetize it?

You guys need some marketing help. There’s a lot of potential here, but you don’t do a good job of selling it. Tell me what problems I’m going to be able to solve or what headaches it will eliminate. Can it going into that shitty Canvas app my kids’ school uses, identify outstanding assignments or low grades and send me a daily text summary? Can it automate buying everything on my grocery list and setting up delivery? Or look up flight options, ask me what I want and book it for me? Even better, I’m stuck having to look up international flights for 7 people in three households, get everyone to agree on one and then book them. Please build something that will do that.

Keep at it because this thing is cool!

Thank you for the feedback. Ack, we need to do a better job of marketing.

> How do you plan to monetize it? Our goal is to eventually to sell license for enterprise browsers.

Have you ever thought about a marketplace for premade workflows? Or a library of integrations that are already tested that a user can mix and match to create complex automations? Or access to more MCP servers?

For example, it would be really neat to trigger jobs that perform some task and then make a call to Twilio or something to send an alert. Or some building blocks that tie into my Square account or Amazon account. I want to be able to describe the results I want, but I don’t want to explain how to interact with a particular service and then test that.

I would love to be able to give a prompt like this: “review my item library in Square, identify items that are missing descriptions or are miscategorized, propose the fixes, and confirm with me before making any changes.” That’s an extremely tedious task that requires a lot of clicking and page loads. I hate it and I would pay for your product if you could save me that time.

Or this: “Every month, alert me to any fluctuations in product cost and which items in my Square catalog are affected. Highlight any items where my COGS exceeds 35%. All the invoices are available in my email.” That would be incredibly powerful. Doing this manually can take days.

You could try this use case on on agent builder even today. We also have a scheduled tasks for you to schedule it to run monthly

We want to do this and are moving towards that! But we first need to make the premade (or user published) workflows very reliable.
