How to Build AI Agents That Make Money While You Sleep |…

About this episode

Chase Haynes is an American creative tech founder running Blok Blok Studio out of Berlin, and for the past 44 days he has been publicly documenting his journey to $10,000 a month using Claude and OpenClaw. In this episode we go deep on what it actually looks like to build a multi-agent system from scratch, how Chase set up his AI agent Cortana, why he structured his whole business around an agent hierarchy, and what the real difference is between Claude and OpenClaw. We also get into skills versus tools, cron jobs, email warmups, lead scrapers, GitHub boilerplates, voice agents, context windows, compute costs, and why Chase thinks the biggest mistake people make is building agents without a structure. If you have been curious about AI agents but did not know where to start, this is the episode for you. ** In this episode we get into: What Claude actually is versus what OpenClaw actually is and why people keep confusing them How Chase structured his entire agency as an agent hierarchy with a COO, department heads and sub-agents all working while he sleeps The difference between a skill and a tool and why getting this wrong costs you time and money Why your context window is quietly draining your compute budget and what to do about it Why being a little bit delusional is actually a requirement for hitting big goals ** Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 01:33 Chase's Backstory 06:43 Claude vs OpenClaw 10:30 Meet Cortana 18:00 Skills vs Tools 23:00 Sub-Agent Team Setup 25:00 Working While You Sleep 31:25 AI Voice Agents 43:23 Where to Start 01:04:30 The $10K Roadmap ** Find Chase: Instagram: / haynes2va LinkedIn: / chase-haynes Studio: www.blokblokstudio.com/call Find Miss AI: Website: https://www.realmissai.com/ Instagram: / realmissai LinkedIn: / keira-nesdale-b287899b TikTok: / keiranesdale Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0QIuSAR...
