aryanXmahajan shares how he went solo with AI:
- In February, 5 managing directors at one of the world's largest consultancies were messaging him daily via Slack, email, and iMessage, and his dev team couldn't keep up — so he let the team go.
- He built a single AI workspace on his Mac that reads every transcript, deal file, and live tool across his company.
- Ten months and 2,599 updates later, he has shipped 10+ live agents across the consultancy's practice teams serving multibillion-dollar clients.
- The business now makes $100K+/month with just one full-time operator: himself.
