  the ecommerce teams heading into q4 with an unverified list aren't making a content problem. they're making a compliance problem. since november 2025 gmail, yahoo, and microsoft reject non-compliant bulk mail outright. not spam folder. outright. the list you built through the year is the list you're sending to in november. verify before q4. not during it. not after it underperforms.

  The spirit of Spirit just sold for $10 million Google is buying Spirit Airlines' data out of bankruptcy. Emails, internal communications, spreadsheets, bookings, frequent flyer and HR records, all de-identified, for $10 million. Judge Sean Lane rules on the sale Wednesday. The obvious read is that Google wants more data. But de-identified data doesn't work for advertising, since you can't target someone you can't name, and Google already sees more airfare information through Google Flights than Spirit ever generated internally. An airline that went under in May is also a strange place to look for pricing wisdom. What's worth buying is the internal material. The emails and the spreadsheets they reference record how work moved through the company: a question gets asked, a document gets built, a decision gets made, a system gets updated. Consumer text is everywhere, and records of how an organization actually functions are not, which is what you need if you want models that operate inside workflows rather than talk about them. Google's own statement uses the word enterprise, and the runner-up bid of $7.5 million came from Mercor, a company whose entire business is sourcing training data for AI labs. When the second bidder isn't another airline, the market has told you what was being priced. The strange part is that Google isn't short on this data at all. It runs Gmail and Workspace and sits on possibly the largest collection of business correspondence in the world, and it has promised enterprise customers it will not train on their content, which is not a promise it can quietly break. So it has the material and no permission to use it. What $10 million buys is clean title, a court approved dataset nobody can sue over, at a moment when everyone else is defending scraping claims. Dead companies can agree to things live ones can't. Any of this is worth paying for because the public supply is running down. Epoch AI's 2024 analysis put the stock of quality public human text at roughly 300 trillion tokens and projected it would be consumed between 2026 and 2032, a window that opens this year, and access has closed faster since than the arithmetic alone suggests. A census of the top 100,000 domains this July found 19.1% blocking at least one AI crawler, and in September Cloudflare begins blocking mixed use crawlers by default across its entire free tier. Private operational records are the obvious next reserve, and they are almost untouched. Epoch left them out of its estimate because private data is fragmented and legally too messy to use at scale, which is precisely the condition a bankruptcy court removes. That makes Wednesday's ruling more interesting than the sale. If it goes through, every bankruptcy from here has a new asset to offer, and the value will depend on how well documented the industry already is. A corner store has nothing worth buying, since you can watch how it works from the sidewalk. A hospital or a law firm is the opposite, because even with names removed the record shows how a case moves through the organization, who escalates what to whom, and which exceptions get made. That knowledge lives in internal systems and in people's heads and appears nowhere public. The catch is that the supply is biased toward failure, since no healthy company would sell its internal record, so every dataset that reaches the market comes from an operation that didn't work. That's useful for learning how a process runs, and much less useful for learning what good judgment looks like.

  @JonBbC_TechGeek Generating proposals and sending compliance docs. It does a great job. It's completely hands-off from incoming email to sent email w/ attachments. I'll have it doing much more very soon. (*Attachments have to be a PDF Google drive link until they get a gmail API issue sorted out. Pdf files will not automatically attach.)

  I haven't posted at all today because someone dropped a deadline on me that I could NOT miss. If I failed... I would loose funding for my video editing future. No time, so I literally had to tear apart my slow *** process. The solution was in AI. I connected my agent with Gmail, Notion, Claude Browser Extension, and Drive. I even left the house for an hour and the work kept going, because my agent was on my phone taking direction from the car. The only reason this happened was because I was out of options and I couldn't waste a single second. Deadline hit, and for the first time I can see the actual path to becoming the best videographer in the world 🌎!! I also have an incredible system that 5x'ed my workflow🤯 Where did your workflow break the last time you were under real pressure?

  But it will slow them down. The best practices are honed ones. Salted email is sorta okay for Gmail but I'm not sure if other providers allow that. Keeping your real name disassociated with your online profiles is a Best Practice.

  How to set up Grok Bot for your company: Grok Bot’s biggest advantage right now is it's easy setup. You can connect the tools your company already works in, port over workflows you already know work, and get an autonomous agent running without building the whole stack yourself. Here’s how I’d set it up: 1. START WITH THE SYSTEMS THAT HOLD USEFUL CONTEXT Connect the places where your company already works: > Google Drive for docs, strategy, offers, and SOPs > Slack for conversations and internal context > Gmail + Calendar for communication and meetings > Gong for customer, sales, and internal calls > GitHub + Linear for product and project context > Mixpanel for product data > Stripe for revenue signals > Clay for enrichment and outbound data Connect the systems the bot actually needs for its job. 2. DON’T INVENT YOUR FIRST WORKFLOW FROM SCRATCH This is where most people hit the cold start problem. Open Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Hermes, or whatever AI you already use every day and ask: “Based on how I work, what are the highest leverage workflows I repeat often enough to turn into autonomous agents?” Then have it package the best workflow into an .md file. You already spent months teaching your existing AI how you work. Use that context. 3. GIVE GROK BOT ONE NARROW JOB Bad: "Run my marketing" Better: "Monitor Gong, X, YouTube, and our existing content, Find topics we have authority on, Score them by TOFU / MOFU / BOFU potential, Return the highest priority SEO + AEO briefs" One bot. One job. One measurable output. 4. FEED IT THE CONTEXT THAT MAKES THE WORK YOURS For a marketing bot, I’d include: > Past campaigns and what worked > Brand voice > ICP > Offers and pricing > Content examples > Internal SOPs > Sales calls > Customer language > Previous tests > Examples of what “good” looks like The more queryable your company becomes, the more useful the agent becomes. 5. SET THE PERMISSION BOUNDARY BEFORE YOU RUN IT My rule: Read + research + draft = run freely Send + publish + spend + change records = human approval Give the agent access to the context it needs. Don’t give it unlimited permission. A simple first setup: Existing workflow ↓ Export to .md ↓ Connect 3 to 5 useful tools ↓ Give Grok Bot one job ↓ Run ↓ Review ↓ Tighten the workflow Good first bots: > Content radar > SEO / AEO brief bot > Revenue signal monitor > Marketing analyst > Customer voice miner > Outreach researcher > Project operator Grok Bot is interesting for companies because it removes a lot of the setup that normally keeps autonomous agents in the hands of technical power users.

  What's your bounce rate? Don't know? That's the problem. Bounces are the loudest signal you send Gmail. Cross 3% and inbox placement falls off a cliff. Verify every list before it hits your sequencer. Costs $9 per 1,000 leads. A dead domain costs you 3 weeks.

  Built something that's been quietly saving me every morning. I work with a US client, so most bug reports land in my inbox overnight while I'm asleep. Used to mean waking up, opening gmail, reading through everything, mentally triaging what's actually broken before I'd even had coffee. Now there's an @evedev_ agent connected to my Gmail that runs at 8am. Goes through the night's emails and pulls out anything that's actually a reported bug or issue. Posts it into a Slack channel. From there another agent, @cursor_ai, sitting in that same channel picks it up. It has access to my GitHub repo, so it checks the issue against logs, traces it back to the actual code, and debugs it. By the time I open my laptop there's a full report waiting. What broke, where, and what the fix looks like. I've only given it read access everywhere. Not because it hasn't been reliable, it has. I just still want to be the one reviewing and merging anything that touches the codebase. The automation does the investigating. I still make the call. Works better than I expected it to.

  Over the last weeks I have been working on my personal AI operating system, called Lex. My main issue with ChatGPT, Claude and co is that it feels weird to connect all of the different services I use (6 different google accounts, Slack, Whatsapp, other MCP servers, Apple notes, location, health data, ...) with no control about what the agent actually does with it and if I switch the provider I need to connect everything again. That's where my own system comes into play. It runs on my own virtual private server (so full control) and is connected to all my accounts. It acts like a MCP gateway, so I can use it within the different AI providers through my own MCP server. But depending on the use case I can add approvals to different tools, so e.g. when ChatGPT wants to send a mail through my account I first need to approve it in my system. Also all tool access is logged, so I can always review what each agent did. On top of that I built my own memory/knowledge layer, so every email, message, document is parsed and the knowledge extracted to a graph of different entities. This again can be used as tools as mentioned above. Then I built my own custom iOS and macOS apps on top that allow me to add even more data like always up-to-date location, full sync of my Apple Watch health data and browsing history. My mac app even takes screenshots every couple of seconds and adds that to my system as well. The result is that the quality of the agent runs I get out of this is so much higher than everything I have tested before. Have been adding more and more features especially to the iOS app, so it now even includes my own mail app (replacing gmail on my phone) which allows me to start agent runs automatically from emails I receive. Everything feels so much more connected now. I have no idea where this is going, but at the moment it feels like it's the perfect combination of full AI power while maintaining the best possible control of my data.

  steal this full system for launching faceless YouTube channels. six steps, in this exact order. save this for later. step one: niche selection most people pick a niche they're personally interested in. that's a bad approach, and it's why so many channels never get off the ground. the only question that matters is whether other people are already winning in that space. go find channels in the niche doing 100K to 1M views a month. if there are a few clearly working, that's your proof of concept. if you can't find any, the demand isn't proven and you should move on. huge emphasis on RPM here. some niches sit at $2 to $5 for every thousand views. others run $10 to $20 for the exact same view count. boring niches with high RPM are usually the play, even when they're the ones nobody wants to make videos about. step two: infrastructure this is the part everyone skips. it's also the part that ends channels. before you upload anything, every channel gets its own Gmail connected to nothing else you own, its own phone number for verification, its own dedicated IP (residential and static, not a rotating VPN), and its own anti detect browser profile. here's why it matters. YouTube doesn't just look at your content, it looks at what connects to what. same IP, same email, or same device across multiple channels and they can get linked together. one gets flagged and they could all go, which is a huge risk to take for no reason. it doesn't matter that the other channels did nothing wrong. the whole thing takes about 20 minutes per channel, so do it before you have anything worth losing. step three: branding these are rough guidelines rather than rules, but they matter more than people think. keep things consistent across everything you post. similar fonts, similar colors, similar thumbnail style. the goal is that people start recognizing your stuff in the feed before they even read the channel name. every video you post trains people to recognize the next one. that recognition is what turns a random viewer into a repeat viewer, and repeat viewers are the entire difference between a channel that plateaus and one that compounds. step four: format don't invent a format. steal one that's already working. find the outlier videos in your niche, the ones doing way more than the channel average, and break down every factor they share. length, pacing, structure, how they open, how they close. then rebuild it in your own way. nobody winning at this is inventing new formats. they're taking a proven one and adding their own twist, which is a far lower risk bet than trying to invent something from scratch and hoping an audience shows up for it. step five: retention packaging gets the click. retention decides whether YouTube pushes you after that. the first 30 seconds matter most, and if your graph nosedives before 0:30 the video could likely be dead. get to the point as soon as you can and don't waste any time getting there. then read the graph. a smooth slide down is normal and every video has it. a sharp cliff is a specific moment with a timestamp, so go rewatch that exact second. a spike means people rewound to see something again, which is your audience telling you exactly what they want more of. fix the moments, not the whole video. step six: scaling once something works, run it back. build a second channel with similar branding. or run the same concept in an adjacent niche. or take your existing channel and do the whole thing in another language. you already know the format works, so you're just pointing it somewhere new. just make sure step two is handled properly first. otherwise scaling turns into one flag taking everything down at once, and you've multiplied your risk instead of your income. the order matters as much as the steps. niche, then infrastructure, then branding, then format, then retention, then scaling. most people skip step two entirely and wonder why their portfolio disappeared in a week. bookmark this.

  Wild Gmail experience this week. I added a TXT DNS verification record to our return path subdomain (marketbeat dot analyst ratings dot net) in Cloudflare to add it to Google Postmaster Tools. Somehow that caused Gmail to think our CNAME record for that subdomain which points to SendGrid has no valid SPF record. Gmail starts blocking about 30% of our messages because they had no valid SPF record and weren't validated. Took about 36 hours to figure out. I removed the new TXT record and the issue fixed itself within an hour.
