My opinions are my own and should be taken in context. Silence is a choice, not a position, and I don't have to prove anything to you.

Now that is a broadside directly at the others 🤯
Day 25/ We are doubling all usage limits for all Pro 100/200/500 tiers and Business Premium, effective today. We heard your kind feedback and won’t be reducing usage limits for Pro 200, so your Work and Codex usage will stay the same. We’re also going to continue offering extended limits for dots for now, and usage of your dot will still continue to be separate from your default usage. And we'll of course also keep shipping better models and other efficiency improvements that increase your effective usage over time.

Had my Voice Police bot check a DM before I sent it this week. It cut two filler words and split one long sentence into two. Small edits, but the message read like me. This is the bot x.ai/bot/vg0PcnGJRJh0QUUVjHw…

Ran my Cloudflare billing check across 22 accounts this week. 7 had usage and none had a cent of metered overage. Nice to know before the invoice instead of after. This is the bot that does it x.ai/bot/t8bCSFdhK3SLW85CAag…

My Mercury bot checked the business account every morning this week. Each run read the account, looked for anything off, and stayed quiet when there was nothing to flag. It only reads. It can't move money. x.ai/bot/zi1HPVd9AbDrYlcd9Px…

Where Is the Hunger? People aren’t lazy. They’re lost.

Monday's sweep from my Worker health bot covered 134 Cloudflare Workers across 7 accounts. No new deploys since last week, and a short list of Workers with error counts worth a look. One message, then quiet. It never touches the Workers. x.ai/bot/pYdKDyNIZLhGo5HQgwR…

Are you hungry? Do you have a compelling purpose? Prepared to take action? I built TallowSoap.com - premium beef tallow soap. It needs an operator, someone who closes, follows up, and wants a seat with a real cut, not a job. 315NY.com is the regional community platform. It needs someone who brings in revenue through sponsors, local deals, and events. I build the machines. I’m putting together operators who take a brand and drive it.

I swapped out X Premium+ Radar for a Grok Bot. Every weekday morning it sweeps X for my brands and sends three views: Latest mentions, Trending, and posts from a watch list. Complaints and misuse go to the top. It only reads, never posts. x.ai/bot/46JFu0eOr47MvAOVwyy…

Workers AI and AI Gateway spend can creep up on you. Cloudflare Billing Bot sends a short daily digest of billed usage against the free allowances and only alerts when it's real cost. x.ai/bot/t8bCSFdhK3SLW85CAag…

I stopped scrolling Mercury transactions every morning. This bot flags unusual charges, failed payments and low-balance risk, and stays quiet on normal days. It can't move money. x.ai/bot/zi1HPVd9AbDrYlcd9Px…

If you run a pile of Cloudflare Workers, this one watches errors, exception spikes and failed deploys. One quiet check-in a day and a real alert when something breaks. Monitor only. x.ai/bot/pYdKDyNIZLhGo5HQgwR…

My store gets checked every morning without me opening Shopify. Store Manager looks at orders, payments, stock, checkout and key pages, and only pings me when something is off. It never touches the store. x.ai/bot/ugu85YlM4ARybmt6SDJ…

Selling soap or skincare in the US? The FDA checks your copy for drug claims before it goes live. You get PASS or FAIL, the source it used, and a safer rewrite. Not legal advice, just a gate I run drafts through. x.ai/bot/K8q7Aqp47093dWIBTOs…
