Building in Public: The 7 AI Tools I'm U...

Aakash Gupta
About this episode

I made $1M in the last 12 months — with zero full-time employees.

In this podcast, I’ll share and show you (watch the YT version) the 7 AI workflows that helped me scale faster, save over $400K in costs, and launch multiple income streams, all powered by AI agents.

You’ll see exactly how I use tools to:

- Automate my inbox

- Build and ship SaaS prototypes

- Write and produce video ads

- Grow a podcast to 50K+ listeners/episode

- Repurpose and distribute content across platforms

- Book high-profile guests

- Run a content engine with zero human ops
