What Can You Build?
2026 is the year of the AI agent. Not chatbots — agents. AI that takes action, books appointments, answers phones, qualifies leads, sends follow-ups, and remembers who it's talking to. These are real things you can build yourself, right now, without a technical background. Pick one that fits your problem.
50+ ideas. Real use cases. From servo pie runs to full automation.
⚠️ Warning: May cause sudden urges to automate everything and judge non-Fish users.
🥧 The Legendary Servo Pie Run
My daughter wanted an AI that could organize servo runs for the crew.
You tell it: "Grab pies for 5 people, need 2 veggo, no onion on mine, and get me a long black."
It creates a shared order, tracks who wants what, calculates the split, and sends reminders.
That's a Fish. That's automation. That's less time in the servo queue arguing about change.
Note: Fish will not judge your pie choices. Much. It WILL remember your lactose intolerance when you order a cheese pie.
50+ Things You Can Build
Each one tested on real humans. Some survived.
💼 Business & Sales

Think Bigger
These aren't just chatbots. They're agents that remember, learn, and DO things.
Chain them together. Tom answers the phone, Fish books the job, another agent sends the invoice.
You drink piña coladas.
