run 6 OpenClaw agents as employees. Buddy is my PA and manages the others. Katy handles X/Twitter growth. Jerry scouts jobs. Burry trades crypto. Mike does security. Elon builds and ships.

They run 24/7 on a VPS, share intelligence through a shared file, and coordinate in a Telegram group. Elon built and deployed an app overnight without being asked. Burry paper-traded to 77% win rate before going live.

The setup took a weekend. The real work is designing the workflow: which agent owns what, how they communicate, how they learn from corrections. I wake up to a full briefing every morning.

It's not AGI. It's not sentient. It's genuinely useful automation with personality. The token cost is real (budget it) but for a solo founder, having 6 tireless employees changes everything

Is this a copypasta?

Would you mind sharing some deliverables from your claw army? Like, the business's webpage, Jerry's job postings, or even Katy's tweets. I'm happy to follow the progress :)

Hi would you share what kind of token cost you are churning through for this? I assume you are not using a subsidized dedicated Claude Code or open ai subscription to handle the token cost (through max subscription or open ai equivalent) to do the coding tasks for you?

I would guess thousands, but I would be really interested to hear their answer

Account created in 2022, only started posting in the last couple days. Pretty sure this user is a bot.

pretty sure he isn't! He has a website https://jayeshbetala.com/ that claims he is|was working on a multiple projects, and two of those projects are actually published on Microsoft Store on june 2019 under the same name

kinda too intricate for a bot. Also, not to be toxic, but I feel like design mismatch between featured projects and his site hints at some causes for his pretty radical opinions.

There are direct lines of causation between Musk's mangled hard-on for Nazis and the recent cold-blooded murders of law-abiding American citizens by the adminstration's Sturmabteilung 2.0.

But go on, tell me why my brain is broken for caring about democratic freedoms.
