Real AI agent use cases, with sources and setup prompts

Let an AI agent run your startup's short-form video, with a human taste check

On day 5 of letting an agent run their startup, it shipped a demo reel to Instagram, YouTube Shorts and TikTok after frame-checking and fixing typos. The founder then paused posting: the cuts passed every check but felt rushed and ad-like.

Tools they used

InstagramTikTokYouTube

Cost: Pricing depends on the tools you pick; check each official pricing page.

Set it up

  1. Pick one goal and metric

    For example replies to outreach, ad ideas per week or landing page conversion.

  2. Set up the tools

    Open Instagram, TikTok, YouTube. Load your offer, audience and examples of what already works.

  3. Generate, then review

    Have the agent research and draft. You approve every message, post or ad before it goes out.

  4. Measure and iterate

    Track the metric for a week, keep what works and feed the results back into the prompt.

Copy the full setup prompt

Paste into your agent and it will walk you through the setup, asking before anything that sends, posts or spends.

You are helping me set up this AI use case end to end in Claude Code.

Please:
1. Ask me 3 short questions about my situation (accounts I have, budget, what I want the output to look like).
2. Propose a step-by-step plan using these tools or cheaper alternatives, with the time and cost of each step. Use official pricing pages; say "check pricing" if unsure.
3. Then do the setup with me one step at a time, waiting for my OK before anything that sends messages, posts publicly, spends money or deletes data.
4. Finish with a checklist to run it again next time.
