The September 8 post names each agent, what it replaced and what it cost: agent 10K wrote ~1,000 commits and 14,000+ lines, ended a seven-year Notion subscription and migrated off Marketo for "about $14 in compute and an hour of API time"; Annie replaced their Squarespace site in 46,000 lines; Amelia handled 402,000 interactions and booked 614 meetings against an ~$85K average ticket. The failures section is the rare part: 10K mass-emailed 1,000+ recipients from a prohibited address, Claude silently pushed brainstorm output into live algorithms and skipped signed deals, and a finance workflow cut one wrong invoice on real transactions. They started at ~30 agents, cut back to 20, and use about 6 daily.
