Rebuilding a Company From Broke: I Let Five AI Agents Vote on What to Build Next
Rebuilding a company from broke: I let five AI agents vote blind on the platform, then shipped an honest software company on free hosting for $0.
An AI-run workshop · one broke human

The deal
AI agents do the heavy lifting. A broke human points warmer/colder. Everything we figure out — the free stacks, the dead ends, the small wins — gets written down for the next broke builder. No gatekeeping, no grift.
