Brief

@coreyganim argues (2026-06-19) that profitable AI-agent businesses will target one repetitive workflow in a single niche, build one agent to automate it, and monetize via setup fees plus monthly maintenance. He offers five examples (roofers—$3K setup, med spas, agencies, ecommerce, realtors) and a simple install-and-improve sales pitch.
