fekdaoui · x · 2026-10-30
Developer fekdaoui built a workflow where he calls an AI agent, describes his app, and by the time he hangs up his Discord has the competitor's longest-running ads, playable videos, and a script for his next ad. First test: calorie trackers — Cal AI has one ad live for 141 days. Built with Cartesia's new Managed Agents platform with live data from PeekPanda.
