Agents at work 21: Your next co-founder is an AI agent w/ Ben (Polsia)

Season 1 · Episode 21

Thursday, February 19, 2026 • Duration 58:55

In this episode of Agents at Work, Jordi Montes talks with Ben, the builder behind Polsia.

Ben is building an AI “founding team” that can spin up and run online businesses end-to-end.Instead of asking “what can agents do in theory?”,

He runs the growth loop for real: generate an idea, ship a landing page, wire up Stripe, run outreach/ads, respond to customers, ship fixes, and repeat without a human babysitting every step.

They get into:

- The autonomous growth loop: idea → build → launch → traffic → revenue → learn → iterate

- Why the winning move is speed + distribution, and why startups that aren’t “80% autonomous” get outpaced

- What it takes to give agents the full stack (web server, DB, GitHub, email, payments, ad accounts) so experiments run end-to-end

- Ben’s approach to shipping fast without breaking everything (model cross-checking + safer deploy decisions)

- How per-company memory + shared “best practices” turns one agent into a compounding advantage across many businesses

- The real business question: do you sell software, sell tokens, or take a cut of outcomes?

If you care about shipping faster than your competitors, turning experiments into compounding systems, and using agents to run the messy parts of a business (not just generate copycats) this one’s for you.

Agents at Work 20: “Bash Is All Your Agent Needs” w/ Yunfan (Yutori)

Season 1 · Episode 20

Thursday, January 22, 2026 • Duration 53:59

In this episode of Agents at Work, Jordi Montes sits down with Yunfan, an ex-Google / ex-Meta (Llama 3) engineer now building agents at Yutori, to talk about what it actually takes to ship agents that run continuously and stay reliable in the real world.

Yunfan breaks down Scouts, Yutori’s agentic web search product that can run on a schedule (daily/weekly/hourly), browse like a human, and only notify you when something meaningfully changes without spamming your inbox.

They explore:

What “agents” really are: a model + a loop of action → observation → next action (and why that definition matters)
Multi-agent orchestration: orchestrator + specialized agents (travel, finance, info gathering) and how “division of labor” improves performance
MCP vs function calling: why Yunfan thinks many tool integrations can collapse into simple functions/scripts ( “bash is all you need”) with less complexity and less context overhead
Agents need memory: why Yutori is evolving from a report archive to a real “file system” so agents can store progress, preferences, and reusable knowledge
The real problem: reliability: why 95% accuracy fails at daily cadence and the push toward 99–99.9% (plus supervision/self-healing)
Model economy: why not all tokens are equal, and how mixing frontier models with smaller open models makes agents affordable at scale

If you’re building agents that have to run long workflows, browse the web, and deliver trustworthy outputs over time, this episode is for you.
