Meet the AI Agent Turning Simple Prompts into Viral Content

On this episode we dive deep into Glif. This beginner tutorial shows how AI agents on Glif automatically optimize prompts and workflows to create scroll-stopping content. We demo four agents live: Mr. Beast-style thumbnails, miniature documentaries, AI influencer videos, and automated Reddit story content. Total cost: $2. Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro 03:35 – Nano Banana Ultimate 08:53 – Diorama Shorts Creator 15:49 – AI Influencer Generator 23:27 – TikTok Reddit Story Creator 32:28 – Conclusion and Final Thoughts Key Frameworks: The ACP Funnel (Audience → Community → Product) Build businesses in this order: First create an Audience with storytelling/content (use creative AI here), then build a Community with paid memberships or IRL events, then create a Product to sell to them. This gives you the highest probability of success. Modern Social Strategy: 1 Brand + 10 People Old way: 1 brand account on multiple platforms. New way: 1 brand account + 10 different people accounts (real and AI influencers) across platforms. If 1-2 of 10 pop off, you win. Four Demos Shown: Nano Banana Ultimate: Redesigned thumbnail Mr. Beast-style with proper aspect ratios, high contrast, exaggerated expressions—got 3 variants that couldn't be achieved with regular Nano Banana Miniature Documentary Creator: Created 40-second tilt-shift video about Facebook IPO in ~5 minutes using Seadream, WAN 2.2, 11Labs—includes research, script, voiceover, animations, period music, and subtitles (agencies charge thousands; this cost $0.40) AI Influencer Generator: Generated 35-year-old woman in tennis clothing using Quen Realism and OmniHuman—creates realistic talking head videos for brand representative accounts or video ads at zero production cost Reddit Story Automation: Scraped r/SaaS for story about developer building $1M SaaS through Reddit, generated educational 60-second video with voiceover, Pexels stock footage, and subtitles—enables faceless content channels (example cited: 67% of customers from Reddit, zero CAC) Key Insight: AI agents get you 80% there but you still need to be the creative director, push agents to create better scripts, expect to iterate, and manually review for character consistency and details.

  Today, we're going to talk about how do you use AI agents to get the most out of these creative AI tools that I'm sure you've seen and played with. I'm sure you've played with Nano Banana. Maybe you've seen Kling. Maybe you've seen One 2.2, Sora 2. You've seen them, but you've also seen that there's some people that are able to get 100x out of them and other people who are just prompting it and being like, "What is this slop?" And I believe that the way to get the most out of creative AI is through two things. It's through understanding how to prompt properly and understanding different workflows. So actually stitching together multiple of these tools. And today, we're going to go through an app called Glyph. I have no affiliation with them.

• 0:42Greg Isenberg?

  I just saw it online and started using it recently that actually does this for you. It automatically prompts, formats it for you, and gives you some workflows. And why I think it's interesting is the people that could unleash creative AI have an unfair advantage because those are the people that are going to be able to create big audiences, ads that outperform, vibe-coded websites and apps that don't look like every other vibe-coded app. So I'm particularly interested in figuring out how to get 10x out of more with creative AI. And my thesis right now is it's through AI agents and apps like Glyph.

• 1:33Greg Isenberg?

  So this is a tutorial for beginners. I'm going to go through Glyph. We're going to go through Glyph together. I've been using it for the last 24 hours. And let's just, let's just see if it's any good. And by the end of this episode, I think you'll have a good idea of where prompts and workflows and tools like Glyph fit in here. So the four use cases that we're going to go through today, we're going to actually see how to use Nano Banana Ultimate AI Agent on Glyph. So we're going to try maybe creating a thumbnail, a YouTube thumbnail, or something else like that. We're gonna see how you can create these videos with just little mini figurines. Why?

• 2:16Greg Isenberg?

  Because that type of video has actually been going viral recently, and I think it's really interesting. We're gonna talk about how you can create AI influencers. That's gonna be helpful if you're gonna create organic content, you wanna create multiple accounts, or even you wanna create ads, right? And then we're gonna talk about how you can create, you know, I'm sure you've seen on TikTok those Reddit stories, how you can create these workflows that automatically, you know, go and find these stories, and then create video content around that, so you can create these meme pages and stuff like that. The whole purpose of this video is to get your creative juices flowing, that you leave stronger than you came with. So like and comment, and I have no affiliation with Glyph.

• 3:01Greg Isenberg?

  This is a tool, again, that I've found on the internet. Let's get into it. So when you log into Glyph, it's free to sign up. You're gonna see that there's the workflows and agents. We're gonna, in the agents section, you can see that you can actually just go and hire, so to speak, an agent. And that's where you kinda wanna start. Why do you wanna start here? It's because you can obviously build your own agent or build your own workflows, but it's the simplest just to use someone who's optimized it already. And this is an episode for beginners. So you can see here, here's the Nano Banana Ultimate. And if you're anything like me, you've used Nano Banana, and sometimes you get amazing results, and sometimes you don't.

• 3:46Greg Isenberg?

  And I think it's because of the prompting. So let's go ahead and see if Nano Banana could go and redesign one of my thumbnails to be more Mr. Beast style. So I'm gonna go ahead and copy this into Glyph.

• 4:08Greg Isenberg?

  So I'm gonna say, "Hey, I'd like you to redesign this thumbnail to be Mr. Beast-esque."

• 4:20Greg Isenberg?

  I'm gonna say to be more Mr. Beast-esque.

• 4:25Greg Isenberg?

  I want higher CTR, more contrast, fresher. I don't know, the stuff that gets Mr. Beast tons of views. But for my type of content.

• 4:41Greg Isenberg?

  So if I were to actually put this into Nano Banana regular, I would, I would actually get a thumbnail that probably isn't the YouTube size. It probably would be all over the place. My face wouldn't, would look different. So let's see if it actually does something a little bit better.

• 5:00Greg Isenberg?

  So it asked me to drop the thumbnail, so I'll go ahead and drop that again. And we'll get to work. Cool.

• 5:08Greg Isenberg?

  Sam Altman, the co-founder of OpenAI, just said that it is the era of the idea guy, and he is not wrong. I think that right now is an incredible time to be building a startup. And if you listen to this podcast, chances are you think so too. Now, I think that you can look at trends to basically figure out what are the startup ideas you should be building. So that's exactly why I built idea browser.com. Every single day, you're gonna get a free startup idea in your inbox, and it's all backed by high-quality data trends. How we do it, people always ask. We use AI agents to go and search, what are people looking for? And what are they screaming for in terms of products that you should be building?

• 5:53Greg Isenberg?

  And then we hand it on a silver platter for you to go check out. We do have a few paid plans that, you know, take it to the next level, give you more ideas, give you more AI agents and more, almost like a chat GPT for ideas with it. But you can start for free, idea browser.com. And if you're listening to this, I highly recommend it. So my hope is what it does is it, yeah, analyzes the image. This is sort of the missing step. One of the missing steps in Nano Banana and other creative AI tools is, you know, we need to analyze this, and then we need to figure out what is the best prompt based on that, right? So.

• 6:37Greg Isenberg?

  It gives me the prompt, "Here's your Mr. Beast style redesign. A high-energy YouTube thumbnail redesigned featuring a man with short, wavy brown hair and glasses making an exaggerated shock expression, of course." So this is very, very Mr. Beast. You can see it has the aspect ratio, so you hopefully get back the YouTube thumbnail in the right size. And it creates three different variants: red explosion, split screen. Interesting that it includes this, because this is like a tried and true format in YouTube when you have a split screen. Maybe it's like a sad face on the left and a happy face on the right. And then it asks you to generate. Okay, cool.

• 7:20Greg Isenberg?

  I've gone ahead and, by the way, I've added $10 of credits for this video. It's cool, actually. I didn't see like a monthly fee. I just saw you can buy $10 of credits. But you could use this for free. I tried doing this for free, and you get like a few prompts for free. And if you actually want to go and create videos and multiple images, you're gonna need 10 bucks or something like that. Okay, so, I mean, pretty amazing. I couldn't have gotten this out of pure Nano Banana. So I needed the training wheels. I needed the help here. And I bet you, like, I should A/B test that. I don't know what happened to my top lip, but you know, this is the type of thing that

• 8:04Greg Isenberg?

  would work. And it's definitely, you know, it's definitely... What's also cool is I've used this image before, so now I've got this like other image that I haven't, you know, I didn't have to go and do a photo shoot for. So, love that it's done that. And that's Nano Banana Ultimate. Where I can see myself using this also is just, you know, icons. Make it a mascot for my startup, idea browser.com. You know, there's so many, you know, brand identity stuff. And just creating references, images that you can go ahead and use in other creative AI. So I would say that this...

• 8:48Greg Isenberg?

  This was really good. It definitely exceeded my expectations and I can see myself using this. Okay, so the next demo that we're gonna do is the miniature history for brands. So we're gonna go back into the agent area. And you can see here, this agent uses Seadream and WAN 2.2 with 11 labs to create a short 32-second tilt shift. And you can see here that these are the little videos I was talking about. I just think this is cool because you're constantly looking for, as a brand, you're constantly looking for ways to tell your stories. And if you can tell your story in something that's like a little more interesting

• 9:33Greg Isenberg?

  and a little more scroll stopping, then you're increasing your odds of probability of success, right? So here they're using the example for history, but I think that, you know, I'd love to give it a story.

• 9:51Greg Isenberg?

  Let's just click here. Tell me what I can do and see what it says. "I create historical videos and tilt shift miniature shows." So here's my process. You give me a historical topic, an event, a figure, an era. I research it. I create a video plan with four varied image scenes, a narrative voiceover, an animation prompt for each scene. You approve the plan. I generate everything: tilt shift images, voiceover animations, period of program music. I stitch it together with subtitles. And you get a 40-second historical documentary that looks like ghost film with a miniature diorama. Okay, so that's really cool. So the historical topic, let's do the historical topic of Facebook.

• 10:39Greg Isenberg?

  Going IPO. So I don't know how historical that is, but I'm just thinking, I'm just thinking like I have this business idea browser.com, which gives people startup ideas, gives them people prompts to go build those startup ideas. So if I'm trying to build, let's say an Instagram account, like I might want to share stories of founders who've done a really, you know, who've created really big companies, right? So you can see it's gone and created the image prompts to start. So you can see like the scene one, modern glass wall off building exterior in Silicon Valley. The different scenes here is interior of the NASDAQ stock exchange, young tech CEO in a casual hoodie.

• 11:22Greg Isenberg?

  And it's gone and create this, the voiceover script, May 18th, 2012, Facebook prepared for the most anticipated tech type tech IPO in history. Mark Zuckerberg's social network would go public. Shares price at $38. So it's gone and actually researched with perplexity to go and, and actually get the facts straight. Of course, if you're doing this, I would want to make sure, just double check that it's, it's correct. You know, perplexity could be wrong. Then it gives you the video animation prompt. So it does it for see dance light, which is great, right? Cause for most of us, we would just probably go into Sora 2. We wouldn't be stitching together, see dance or in others like that.

• 12:03Greg Isenberg?

  And it goes and does it and says, and it says, uh, does this plan work for you? We're just going to say just generate it, but you could adjust the scripts. You could change the video style and format if you don't like it. And what is happening right now is it's, uh, it's, it looks like it's creating all the, yeah. Oh my God. Are you kidding me? Yeah, this is crazy. Like that's the reference images. How cool is that? How cool is that? And that's the, the audio.

• 12:40Greg Isenberg?

  So it creates the audio here and here and then it says, do you want to generate the video? So we're gonna go ahead and generate the video and see what happens. So it's going and creating the videos. And a lot of people will look at this and be like, this is so silly, right? Like, why, like, historical videos, like, it's so silly. How is this gonna make me money? How is this gonna get me followers? How is this gonna get me likes? Well, I think it's obvious how it's gonna get followers and likes. I think the, the non-obvious question is, how does this, how does this help my business? And whenever you're, you know, when you're thinking about, you know, building your, your business, you know, I always think

• 13:24Greg Isenberg?

  about it like this. I call it the ACP funnel. I've talked about it on the pod before. You know, first create an audience, then create a community, then create a product. So it's literally a funnel. It's literally a funnel. And, you know, I think, you know, you start with an audience and you can tell stories. This is where you can tell stories. And this is where creative AI really plays a huge role. And then from that, you know, maybe you create a paid community, IRL events. And then from that, you're gonna figure out what your product is. And that's when you vibe code something. And that's when you sell it to them. So this is sort of the framework I use when I create any of my businesses,

• 14:06Greg Isenberg?

  when I'm buying businesses, when I'm investing in businesses. And I think this is, gives you the highest probability of success. Let's go back to the glyph. So now what it's doing is it's mixing the background. So it's actually created background music at a low level. So it knows that, you know, it's not just doing voice, voiceover, but it knows that people like background music, right? Like, these are the nuances that you might have forgotten if you were just creating this on your own. And this hasn't taken that long. I mean, we're talking about a few minutes. Like this, I've paid agencies to do this sort of stuff, and it's thousands of dollars. And it's ready. So within about, I don't know, five minutes, we've been able to do it. And let's go ahead and watch it.

• 14:51Speaker 01

  May 18th, 2012. Facebook prepared for the most anticipated tech IPO in history. Mark Zuckerberg's social network would go public. Shares priced at $38 on NASDAQ, but technical glitches delayed trading. Investors grew anxious as the system struggled to keep up. Zuckerberg retained control through special voting shares, but behind closed doors, underwriters had quietly cut their revenue forecasts days earlier. The stock barely rose on day one. Within weeks, billions in value vanished. The dream IPO became a cautionary tale of hype.

• 15:32Greg Isenberg?

  So, I mean, is it perfect? Absolutely not. But from a one-shot, I think that was pretty amazing. And you can see how you can go in and and create and take it to the next level, right? So there you have it, folks. We created a mini documentary in just a few minutes. The next thing I want to do is I want to explore their AI influencer agent. So let's go watch this.

• 15:58Speaker 02

  I can't believe I'm not real, can you? I can't believe I'm not real, can you?

• 16:03Greg Isenberg?

  I can't believe it either, like that you're able to create something this good. And you're going to see, you know, the rise of AI influencers. It's going to be, it's happening and it's becoming a thing.

• 16:16Speaker 02

  I can't believe I'm not.

• 16:18Greg Isenberg?

  Follow me through a day in my life, collecting and cooking totes for the algorithm. This is more like fantasy, right? That is a nice and chubby one indeed. Like, imagine, you know, this is more of like a storytelling thing. And this, this feels more real. It depends what you're trying to do, right? But let's just say, let's see. You know, one thing you can do is you can just click, "Tell me what you can do." And let's see what it says. So it says that it creates talking head videos, generating realistic photos, turning those photos into talking singing, singing videos with lip sync. We can use various voice styles, you know, influencer amateur,

• 17:03Greg Isenberg?

  and you can add music. So let's just say we want a talking head video.

• 17:13Greg Isenberg?

  Yeah, let's do a talking head video. And why I think, you know, I think talking head videos, just from like a video ad perspective, you know, is very, very, is helpful. And also, like, if you're trying to, you know, trying to create influencer accounts, like, gone are the days where you create one brand account, right? You go and create one, like, you create one brand. Let's go back to here in a second. Sort of the, the old way of doing accounts, brand accounts, social media on brands, was you create one brand account.

• 17:50Greg Isenberg?

  And that brand account might have been on multiple platforms. So maybe it was on Instagram and TikTok. So you just do multiple platforms. That was the idea. But today, that's, this doesn't really work that well. You actually want to create something like 10 accounts. Well, here's, here's the way I think about it. One, one brand account, 10 people. Some of those people could be real people and some of those people could be AI influencers.

• 18:34Greg Isenberg?

  But having these people on multiple platforms and, and maybe only two on 10 pop off or one on 10 pops off, that's going to help basically create this brand and get more followers, more likes. And this is sort of the evolution of, of marketing, you know? This is more vibe marketing, right? You're kind of like vibing, using tools like Gliff to get, to get followers. And this is just, you know, you're reliant on people. I think that, you know, I don't want to see a world in social where everything is AI slop, of course, but, you know, people listening to this podcast, the Startup Ideas podcast, you want to increase the odds of success in whatever you're doing. And the reality is AI helps to do that.

• 19:19Greg Isenberg?

  So going back to the Gliff chat, it needs to know, okay, what type of character you want in the video? Who should it be? Let's just say, we want a...

• 19:34Greg Isenberg?

  Thirty-five-year-old woman, brown hair, blue eyes, who is wearing tennis clothing. Because we are a tennis brand. Like, say you're a tennis brand, right? And, you know, you wanna, you want someone who represents the brand. Like, maybe you sell tennis rackets, maybe you sell accessories. So it's gone ahead and, you know, used Quen Realism, which, again, is something I would probably not be using. I wouldn't think to use it. Let's go ahead and see what happens here.

• 20:19Greg Isenberg?

  I mean, pretty great reference image. And then it says, "What do you want her to say? Maybe, 'I don't know about you, but tennis has become my life.'" So, you know, you do need to have, like, a hook, right? So I actually would have loved if it gave me, you know, was like, gave me optimized hooks. But maybe if I did prompt it and it was like, "I wanna do a hook, and, you know, here's my script. What is the best one?", maybe it would have done it.

• 21:01Greg Isenberg?

  So then it says, "What kind of voice do you want her to have? Amateur, raw voice, authentic." So I think amateur just because, you know, it feels like, you know, imagine you're going through stories. Like, the best videos are the ones that feel real, not super, like, high, you know, polished and that sort of thing. So then it says, "They have the audio." And then it says, "Do you wanna create the talking head?" By the way, everything that we've done so far, from a credits perspective, like, we've used about $2 worth of credit so far. So all of this has taken about $2, the audio here, the thumbnail,

• 21:46Greg Isenberg?

  and the, of course, the documentary, so all of it, which is absolutely crazy. So I think that using a tool like this is going to be cheaper in the long run, because you're prompting it less, you're getting more optimized stuff, and realistically, it's going to save you time. So now it's using OmniHuman to create the image and the audio to lip sync to the video. Probably take a couple of minutes. And

• 22:17Greg Isenberg?

  and let's maybe come back to this.

• 22:28Greg Isenberg?

  Oh, no, we'll just wait for this to complete.

• 22:37Greg Isenberg?

  So it's finally finished, the output. It's taken eight minutes and eight seconds to create our virtual influencer. Let's see what it sounds like.

• 22:49Speaker 03

  I don't know about you, but tennis has become my life.

• 22:52Greg Isenberg?

  So I think this, it sounds amazing. I think she looks a little, a little too AI for me, but still, like, it's like 95% there, you know? I think that we can prompt this to get, to get it feel like more, like in her, you know, she's like on the courts or in her, you know, kitchen, you know? Just the background for me, the fact that it's like gray, feels like it's a bit staged and a fit to AI. But I know that we could get it there, we're just prompting it a little more. So really cool that this worked. The last use case we're going to show is these TikTok Reddit stories.

• 23:32Greg Isenberg?

  So I'm sure you've seen this on TikTok, you know, like the Minecraft video is basically, it's brain rot for sure. But, you know, some people love them. This has 43,000 likes. You know, if you can find a way that you can use Reddit for these interesting stories, post it, again, create audiences, create likes, and ultimately sell some of your software or startups.

• 23:58Greg Isenberg?

  That's what you know is a good is a viable channel for you. So can Glyph figure that out for us? So I'm going to say, go and create an awesome TikTok video from the r/sas subreddit. Why from the r/sas? So if I'm doing this for idea browser.com, you know, SAS subreddit, I'm sure has a bunch of startup, you know, people who've built software as a service and they're, you know, I would want to attract those people, right? So it's gone ahead and used web search, Excel web search.

• 24:40Greg Isenberg?

  It's found how I built a $1 million SAS just by posting on Reddit. So classic hustle story, underdog story. And then it asks you to pick your style of prose, drama, educational, mystery, lifestyle. In this case, educational, like we want to teach people about, you know, building software, building SAS. How fast do you want to go? Ultra fast, fast, medium, probably like pretty fast. But it's cool that you're able to, you know, drip feed that context into it. Do you want a Gen Z brain rot, balanced or thoughtful? Let's go with more of a balanced vibe. Let's go with more of a balanced vibe.

• 25:24Greg Isenberg?

  And let's say we want to do 60 seconds. I'm actually surprised that you're able to do such long videos within Glyph. You know, I'd think it would be like 10 seconds, 15 seconds. Here you can see that it's creating seven clips that are eight and a half seconds each. Oh, so that's it. So it's basically creating these clips and it's stitching it together. You can see that it's creating the audio. Here's the hook, the problem, the strategy. So it's already gone ahead and created.

• 25:59Greg Isenberg?

  Created the script. The script is, you know, developer turned a Reddit post into a million dollar SaaS. Here's how he did it. You know, went on Reddit, identified subreddits where his target customers hung out, provided genuine value, he shared case studies, answered questions. I'm gonna say, can you make this script more narrative driven, more interesting, more specific? Just see what happens. Like this, that's to me, like that script feels a little more, a little, a little mid, you know? So, here we go. "In 2019, a broke developer named Tom had $47 in his bank account and a SaaS idea nobody wanted to fund.

• 26:44Greg Isenberg?

  He couldn't afford Facebook ads, so he opened up Reddit and found his first customer arguing in the comments of r/sas. Tom spent two hours every morning answering questions in five subreddits, no links, no pitches." So, this is, this is good. So, that's just a quick tip, I guess, is you can kind of push it to create better scripts. Start production, I click start production, now it's dreading these audio segments in parallel, it uses 11 labs to go ahead and do that. I could see on the side that my, my credits are, are starting to, you know, drain, that cost about, you know, 40 cents or something like that. It uses a custom FFmpeg tool to actually stitch it together.

• 27:29Greg Isenberg?

  And, yeah, hopefully it creates something that's interesting. I will, I wonder if there's like a workflow that you can just run every single day to go ahead and create some of this. I'm sure, I'm sure there is, but, you know, I'm not gonna figure that out in this, in this episode. This is, this is for beginners. But, you know, you can imagine if this works, you're just gonna wanna have this on, on, you know, on, on repeat, right? It creates this Facebook, sorry, it creates this faceless, short-form production engine that every single day you're getting content and creating followers, creating likes, et cetera.

• 28:13Greg Isenberg?

  So, it says retrieving pixel videos in, in parallel, and it's got seven-on-seven unique clips.

• 28:26Greg Isenberg?

  Let's go ahead and continue. It says trimming all unique clips to audio length and using make from assets V2. So it's creating the video from the images. That's really the key with creating AI video is really the images, having great reference images, having great scripts. So you can see here it's already created it and it's going to go ahead and stitch it together. So let's watch a couple of these.

• 28:56Greg Isenberg?

  See if we like it.

• 28:58Speaker 01

  2019, a broke developer named Tom had $47 in his bank account and a SaaS idea nobody wanted to fund.

• 29:07Speaker 01

  He couldn't afford Facebook ads, so he opened Reddit and found his first customer arguing in the comments of Asta Saes.

• 29:16Speaker 01

  Tom spent two hours every morning answering questions in five subreddits. No links, no.

• 29:21Greg Isenberg?

  So it's missing the subtitles, right? And, uh,

• 29:27Greg Isenberg?

  you know, if you didn't like any of these, you can obviously edit them.

• 29:33Greg Isenberg?

  But pretty cool.

• 29:36Greg Isenberg?

  So here it's got the master video here.

• 29:39Speaker 01

  In 2019, a broke developer named Tom had $47 in his bank account and a SaaS idea nobody wanted to fund. He couldn't afford Facebook ads, so he opened Reddit and found his first customer arguing in the comments of Asta Saes. Tom spent two hours every morning answering questions in five subreddits. No links, no pitches, just solving real problems. One comment got 2,000 upvotes. His inbox exploded with 89 people begging for his solution. He hadn't even built it yet. He coded for three weeks straight, launched with a simple post and got 340 signups in 24 hours, all from Reddit. 12 months later, he had 4,000 paying customers. Reddit drove 67% of them.

  His CAC was literally zero. Today, Tom's SaaS does 1.2 million in ARR.

  That's not Tom.

• 30:31Speaker 01

  He still spends 30 minutes daily on Reddit because it works. In 2019.

• 30:36Greg Isenberg?

  So it's not perfect. Like they could have brought Tom back. Um, oh, now it's adding music, the, the background music.

• 30:50Greg Isenberg?

  And it's missing the subtitles, but you get the idea. Like, obviously, you would change some of this. This is one prompting it. I do think the script is pretty good. I would change, like, why? Okay, let's watch this real quick.

  In 2019, a broke developer named Tom had $47 in his bank-

  Like, not bad. Okay, adding subtitles to the video. So, yeah, I would say, like, you probably can get this to work. You can probably get this to work, right? Like, I would have loved to have one-prompted this, and it completely just blew it out of the water. I think that it took two prompts to get a good script. I think that, you know, this, obviously, the short form could be way more optimized. Like, why are you opening up Canva? Why is it showing, like, a woman when it's talking about Tom, or whatever his name is? Bring back the character and stuff like that. And that's where you come in, right? You're the creative director. You have to push this thing. So, you know, but overall, like, the fact

• 31:52Greg Isenberg?

  that you can go ahead and create this, like, we didn't, you know, it... Oh, here we go.

• 31:58Greg Isenberg?

  Here's the masterpiece, the final video. Let's watch, like, 10 seconds of it.

• 32:03Speaker 01

  In 2019, a broke developer named Tom had $47 in his bank account and a SaaS idea nobody wanted to fund. He couldn't afford Facebook ads, so he opened Reddit and found his first customer-

• 32:14Greg Isenberg?

  Like, it's not bad.

  -arguing in the comments of Pastor SaaS.

• 32:18Greg Isenberg?

  It's not bad.

• 32:20Greg Isenberg?

  I mean, obviously, it's bad. Like, in the sense that there's some stuff that we need to change. But it's close. It's like, it's the last 20%, which we need to get to, right? So, overall, like, I am impressed.

• 32:38Greg Isenberg?

  So, what did we do today? We got the most out of Nano Banana with the Nano Banana Ultimate AI Agent. We created a miniature AI documentary. Really cool. And we didn't even research the script at all. We had perplexity to it. We created an AI influencer. Did take eight minutes, but come on, not too bad. And then we created a story, a Reddit story, grabbed information from Reddit and created almost like stock footage with audio on top of it that could be used to create audiences and share our stories.

• 33:20Greg Isenberg?

  So overall, I think it was really cool what we did today and kind of exceeded my expectations. I don't know about you. I think I'll end this episode by saying there's all these different agents in different categories, the video, image, the social media.

• 33:39Greg Isenberg?

  You know, if you want to create podcasts, you know, you want to create a product influencer and video and image, you know, VO3 master prompter, you know, cling 2.5. How do you create, you know, Hollywood special effects in your pockets? So there's a bunch of them here.

• 33:58Greg Isenberg?

  You can go ahead and create your own agents and your own workflows. But, you know, it's really, in my opinion, it's advanced. Like, I would use the regular agents to start, like before you're creating these custom instructions, custom memories, but it's cool to see what you can do, right? You know, you can go and search X for, you know, a specific topic, and then it runs a deep research report, and then it creates, you know, text to image with flux. And so there's so much that you can do. But I would say, you know, from a beginner perspective, play with agents, see if you get something more out of, you know, the creative AIs that exist.

  You know, I think if you've stuck around this long, you're seeing that a tool like LIP is helpful, right?

• 34:53Greg Isenberg?

  So, I hope this has been interesting to you. Hope it's gotten your creative juices flowing. And let me know what you want me to review next. Like, is there any tools that you think are interesting? Should I be doing more of this stuff? And, you know, have a creative day, my friends. This is the greatest time in history to be building startups, to be building audiences, to be building communities. And I can't wait to see what you build next.
