[0:00] Someone just invented a better Siri. You can tell it to book meetings for you, send emails out for you, do basic dictation, actually create tasks for you and do them and so much more. There's a new tool that will explain anything to you with a customized video made just for your way of learning. Someone just created an agent that will design images for you, write copy for you, and do it all artistically. We've got all that and so much more in the hot AI releases of the week. Let's get into it. Presented

[0:25] by Zapier, the AI automation company. All right, Corey, first product Voice OS. This thing basically is everything Siri needed to be. Not only will it do the basic things like dictation and it does dictation well. It will also allow you to tell it "Book a meeting for me with someone. Schedule and or send an email out." It's got agent mode in it. And the agent mode is the part that's most exciting. You can say, "I got this task, add it to my task manager. Show me my calendar." And it does the whole thing. And if you look at the pricing, it is 12 bucks on the annual plan, which is a

[1:02] really good price. I don't see it here on their website, but we saw it earlier. What do you think? Oh, here's pricing. So, I think this is uh I think they're coming for WhisperFlow with this, right? I think that this is something that This is one of the first tools that we've looked at where I'm going to get off this call and immediately subscribe, right? Because I can't tell you how many times like there's little tasks throughout the day that they it would be pointless for me to stop and have Claude or have Codex do it because it might take me 30 seconds to do on my own, but having something

[1:32] like Voice OS where I can one-click, you know, agent mode, tell it what I need it to do, solves that gap and is I think would help me buy back, you know, 20-30 minutes a day on average. So, I I'm going to be subscribing to this tool. I think this is a really cool one of my

[1:47] favorite ones that we've covered so far. Really nice. The only thing is it's really a good deal on the annual plan, 12 bucks a month, but as you pointed out, when you go to monthly, it's $30 a month. But, there's a free trial. I'm going to I'm going to start monthly and then if it if I use it a lot, I'll I'll

[2:00] do annual. All right. Next, Grok Bot just came out. This is um x.com's and Cursor's version of Hermes Agent and Open Claw. It's the agent that's super easy to use. It comes with the chat app. It makes it easy for you to spin up a bunch of different agents and each agent even has a computer essentially with a browser that it can control and operate

[2:22] and do things for you. So, what I like about Grok Bot is like you said, this is their version of like the Open Claw or the Hermes. But, what's interesting is, you know, we're seeing a lot of these just like general use agents get commoditized. So, they're all around the you know, I guess technically Hermes and Open Claw are free. But, like to power them, you're going to spend, you know, 50, 100, up to 200 bucks a month. But, it's like the super specialized vertically aligned agents that do one thing really well for a specific demographic like a realtor or property manager or manufacturer, for example. Those companies are still

[2:57] willing to pay thousands of dollars per month for those very specific, you know, specifically verti- vertically aligned agents. So, we're just seeing more like mass market agents come to come to light. But, I think there's still opportunity for folks that are building specialized ones. Before we got started, you said, "So, I've got a Hermes agent. I've got a hyper agent. What Why would I need this?" And I think for someone like you, it's probably not a good fit. For someone who doesn't have them, who hasn't set it all up, and wants the easy mode, that's what they're going for over here. It's the easy one for everyone to

[3:28] try out and it's available for a free trial right now. Uh next, Omni Work. This is another agent. It did though become number one product of the day on Product Hunt because it is super specialized. It's actually a team of agents that live on your desktop and will do your creative work for you. They'll create images. They'll create video. They'll create your writing for you. And they will learn from your taste as you guide them, they'll get smarter and more effective. That's the goal

[3:56] here. Yeah, so really cool new product here. I mean, like like we said, it hit number one on Product Hunt. It's just this is kind of like that the agentic studio for creative work, is what it looks like, right? So, I think we're going to see a lot of these these startups that come to light where, you know, it's like your agent studio for creative work, and it's your agent studio for coding like we obviously we've already seen it for coding use cases, but again, going back to the idea of like vertically aligned agents or agent studios, this is one of them that clearly they're going for more of a mass

[4:31] market, but again, I think I think this is not the first time we're going to see something like this, but pretty cool concept. Yeah, and they also have a free trial. We'll link to that and everything below. Let's go on to this one. This is from a user on Twitter who said, "Look, you write something well." Actually, you

[4:47] write something good is how he put it. Then your AI drops a few stock phrases in it, one robotic sentence, the whole thing reads like a template. So, what he created was this thing called What's the name of it? It's called Sloptrium. It basically eliminates slop. Here's the before and after. And this is another one that I'm going to be downloading as soon as we get off this call. That's what I love about doing these these episodes is like I feel like we find these tools that we wouldn't find otherwise, and a lot of them are really useful. And this is a problem that everybody faces. Like if

[5:18] you're using AI in any capacity, you're going to run into a situation where the output is very generic, or it just sounds and looks like AI. And this fixes that. And like it said, I think he said it runs locally. It's just a plug-in that runs in the background. There's nothing to copy and paste. It just works, is what it seems. So, I think this is a no-brainer. Like go

[5:38] download this and use it. He just announced it. It only has 13 views. I love how you found that. Yeah, that's So, love about a lot of the stuff we find is like it's not the the mainstream viral stuff. It's the low-key stuff that actually works. Literally 2 hours before we recorded, he he published it and you caught it and

[5:54] shared it. Okay. Scrimba, this creates videos that help you understand anything. So, you ask a question like um "Tell me what GitHub is. Explain it to me like I'm a founder of a non-tech company who uses Claude to create basic apps." So, now there it is. GitHub is a professional home for the code Claude writes for you. Think of GitHub as a high-tech filing cabinet for your apps' blueprints. It

[6:33] doesn't just store the current version. It keeps a perfect record of every single draft you've ever filed away. When Claude writes code for you, you save it on your computer. This is really good. This is pretty good. Yeah. saves it as a numbered version. If you make a mistake in version three, you can tell you. Sometimes I put a ton of work into a video for YouTube. I do all this research and I'll get maybe 10, 20,000 views on it and I'll go, "Great." And then I'll see something like this that explains it in this mechanical, clearly AI wrote it get 100,000 views, 150,000 views. That

[7:09] happened to me this week. I wonder if there's an opportunity for people to basically download this and start loading it into YouTube. Huh. I don't know. What do you think of this? So, I think this looks a lot better than So, Notebook I guess formally Notebook LM, now Gemini LM, has a feature where it does exactly this. You can put in text or like a a transcript and it'll turn it into kind of like this little explainer video. And so far, I mean, what we've seen from Scrimba looks a lot

[7:36] better than what Gemini produces. And like I for example, friends of mine, like people in our community, they're they're taking their client deliverables and putting them into Gemini LM and using that to output an explainer video that they send to clients to kind of preface the follow-up conversation. And this just looks like it does a higher quality job. So, awesome tool, clearly it works well, and something that I mean, again, probably another one that I'm going to go and test out myself

[8:02] right after this. It's really nice. Next, annotate. You ever create something and then you want to explain to Codex, this is the change I want, this is where I want it to go, and you start to do it in words and a couple of screenshots, and it just feels off. Well, what this does is it allows you to screencast. So, basically, you click around, you say, "You know what? I like this phrase, but I want it moved to the end over here. This line over here feels a little bit weird. I also would like you to put" and then you draw an arrow even and say, "This thing I want moved

[8:33] up here." And you draw an arrow. You do the whole thing, you hit stop, and you end up with a little text and a URL to a file that you give your agent. Your agent will then understand what you just did with your screencast, and it could make the changes that you wanted. And it works with any agent because you're just giving them a file with

[8:50] with text. Really nicely done. And this is another one, like I feel like we've got so many good ones this week. This is another one that's just super useful, super practical. This is like the Loom This is like Loom for agents, right? This is Loom for agents in the sense that you can just one-click record a little screen capture, flash it over to your agent, and it knows exactly what you Like it has the context of what's in that actual screencap. And that's a lot easier than even using like a Whisper flow to voice-to-text the exact changes that you want. Cuz sometimes it's like, I know what I want, but like it'd be so

[9:25] much easier for me to like draw a circle on the computer or, you know, as an overlay to to explain what I want here as opposed to me kind of like talking it out. So, super useful. I think this is cool. What What is their pricing like? how do you How do they price this? I don't see their pricing on here. Now, of course I say I don't see it. And

[9:42] someone in our audience will tell me. Look, it says free local Mac OS. I I don't know. I don't see I don't see any pricing for it. I've seen people use it for free. There's got to be some upsell on this. Right, you think? Unless they're just like farming all your data, which they

[9:57] probably are. I just I don't see it. The The big issue I see actually is not so much the price, it's the fact that it's Mac only. And I I know a lot of people are still using Windows and they get really irritated when there's a Mac only option. Okay, next. If there is a price, somebody in the comments tell us. I know you all have done a better job of finding where the where that trigger is

[10:17] for pricing. Okay, there's this big news story where now, in order to comply with the AU with the EU, um Claude is going to watermark even the text that you put out to let other apps other tools know that what you've got is AI-written content. And so, this guy created a watermark removal remover that

[10:39] will get rid of that. Did insanely well. Smart. I mean, that's it's like been the whole That's been like the big news this week. Really, the two big news items have been Grok bot and the watermarks from Anthropic. Mhm. And I've already seen like this is one of probably 10 that I've seen on my timeline this week of of repos that claim that they can remove the watermarks. And I'm sure they all work. But like, Anthropic has so many resources. I'm sure that there's either some like deep watermarking that they're not even telling us about that like is

[11:13] unremovable or or maybe I don't know. Maybe this this is a way to get it done fully. But either way, this is needed. And and I think a lot of people are going to start using solutions like this to strip out all the underlying like metadata around what was AI-generated. Yeah, the challenge is that it's part of the words. It's not just hidden data in it. It's also the words that they're using to watermark, to keep track of the

[11:36] fact that AI wrote it. Okay. Let's go on to the next item. This was created by user. You got to tell the story. You found this one. Yeah, this is just one of those cool little applications that just shows what is possible these days. So, this was This was a grandmother on X tweeted this, and it's not like it went viral. I think it's got like

[11:57] what, 1,000 views? But, she if that. That's so cool. So, she she built an app that monitors It's basically like a baby monitoring and baby tracking app for her granddaughter. So, it it it checks like when was it when was she last fed, when's the last time she changed the diaper, when was her last nap. And then you can press a button to be like basically you can one click let the app know that you just did a feeding or changed a diaper or a nap, or you can leave a note. Like, this is just one of those really cool practical applications of of vibe coding to make your life

[12:28] easier. And I'm sure this person was not a developer. Like, this is a grandma. Yeah. So, just one of those really cool examples. Uh I like this comment that she wrote, "Wake window predictor learns her actual nap pattern over time. That part was the most fun to build." I love that. Okay. Yeah. Next is

[12:46] Shibadoku. It's basically a new game that combines Shiba Inu and games. [music] Okay, um this music is going to drive me a little bit crazy. I don't know if I'm not going to work now. What is it about this that attracted you to it? Somebody just vibe coded like this little game that it's basically What did they say? It's like a mix of Sudoku and Minesweeper, but instead of of mines, you're it's like you have

[13:19] you're using Shibas, like the dogs. It says it's like Sudoku x Minesweeper, but with Shibas. You just need to find them all. So, again, not like nothing crazy, nothing groundbreaking, just another cool example of I'm sure some guy just sitting around being like, "Oh, this would be cool." And probably 60 minutes later he had this thing built. So, just one of those cool cool vibe

[13:39] coded projects in action. Finally, operations.com. What's this? Yeah, so this is one that somebody brought to my attention this week. So, the guy behind this, I forgot his name. I forgot his name. I'm I'm going to butcher it, but he has a background in like systems design. I think he's written that's him right there. Um he's he's written books on systems design, but bottom line, him and his partners or whoever's behind operations.com went out and bought that domain, which probably cost at least a million dollars

[14:11] if I had to guess. And they vibe coded the website, which personally I think it doesn't look very good. Like it looks 100% vibe coded. It's like you're going to spend a million dollars on a domain for the love of God, you know, build a site that looks legit. But all that aside, what I like about operations.com is it validates at least my business model in the sense that these guys are targeting service businesses doing 5 million to 50 million a year in revenue. They come in, they do an audit, they uncover the opportunities, and then they implement AI and automation and agents and all the

[14:44] things into their existing workflows. Seems like they've got some really good case studies. Again, the founders have a track record. And again, it's just validating like what I'm doing, what people in my community are doing, what I think a lot of us are starting to do to make money. So, it's cool to see. And this is like So, your business and their business is essentially going into a business and saying, "I will show you how to implement AI to grow revenue or

[15:07] reduce costs." Exactly. It's three things. It's grow revenue, reduce costs, increase the quality of your product or service. So, it's doing all three of those things at once. And yeah, they're they validated that by probably spending a million dollars on a domain to to build that brand for themselves. All right, if you created anything, send it to us. Don't wait for us to find it on Twitter and other places. Um, send it over and if you want to watch more about what's been launching in AI, we've got a link for you right here. See you in that

[15:35] one.
