AI Agents Weekly Digest - March 2, 2025

Money money money

March 02, 2025

This week’s theme seems to be: ~money~. How can you make money building agents, and how can you not LOSE money building agents.

  1. Is anyone making money with AI Agents?

    1. This has been the question for quite some time now, but usually we don’t see much discussion on this in our specific community

    2. The top comment is about how people who are making money with agents won’t tell you - and that’s driven a lot of discourse

    3. Next up is comments about how they aren’t making money off agents directly, but rather using them to power their products

  2. Lost $5800 Building Agents for a Client

    1. Ouch

    2. Lesson learned - don’t be a fool, make sure you take money up front

  3. Haven’t deployed an agent yet?

    1. The title says “this post will change that” - yeah idk buddy, I didn’t read anything useful in this post

    2. Evidently, the community liked it though

    3. It is an interesting framework though - it’s not about building agents, but about deploying them onto the web - so it’s not as commonly seen

So there was a project display thread for this most recent Wednesday, but we didn’t do the last one yet, so here it is. I’m not particularly happy with this thread because there were no upvotes (weird, there’s usually one or two)

  1. PlanEXE

    1. helps you plan a project

  2. The Infinite Library

    1. a choose your own adventure app - pretty cool tbh

  3. A “find similar companies” agent

    1. great for market research!
