Chapters

1. Introduction & Problem Statement

Greg addresses the common request for practical, small AI business ideas that generate $1–3K daily rather than billion-dollar startup concepts. Promises seven concrete ideas, a reusable framework, and hands-on demonstration using GenSpark Claw.

2. Idea #1: Dead Domain Flipper

Set up an AI agent to monitor expired domain drops (GoDaddy auctions) against criteria like DR 20+, clean backlinks, and niche keywords. Screen 10 domains daily under $200, then flip for $3–5K to SEO agencies, newsletter operators, or as content sites.

3. Idea #2: Local Liquidation Broker

Use AI to scan restaurant closures, bankruptcy auctions, and liquidation sales for equipment deals. Automate pricing comparisons via eBay comps and broker deals between distressed sellers and new restaurant owners for 15–30% commission with zero inventory risk.

4. Live Build: Hiring Signal Outreach Agent

Demonstrates real-time construction of an AI agent that monitors job boards (Hacker News, Remotive, Greenhouse) for hiring signals indicating budget availability. Agent enriches decision maker contacts and drafts personalized cold emails referencing exact job postings.

5. Additional Business Ideas (4–7)

Covers five more concepts: automated due diligence on small business marketplaces, reviving dead-but-trafficked Product Hunt launches, acquiring and relaunching abandoned mobile apps with ranking decay, competitive intelligence monitoring, and mispriced asset hunting across multiple verticals.

6. Framework: How to Generate Your Own Ideas

Three-lens approach: (1) identify places with constant change (marketplaces, job boards, rankings), (2) spot neglected assets (stale traffic, distressed inventory, underpriced attention), (3) ask screening questions (urgency? spread? monitorable? who pays?). Template: feed → asset → trigger → buyer → monetization.

7. GenSpark Claw Setup & Features

Cloud-based alternative to OpenAI's API; integrates with Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram; runs on local machine with built-in skills (audio transcription, email filtering, task creation). Includes prevent-sleep and heartbeat options to keep agents active and optimize token usage.

8. GenSpark Ecosystem & AI Video/Image

GenSpark offers Sonnet 4.6 chat with unlimited usage, unlimited AI image generation, video creation (Cance 2), and audio transcription in one platform. Use cases: generating scroll-stopping meta ads, crafting cinematic brand storytelling videos, competitive research.

9. The Future: Agents as SaaS

Shift from per-seat licensing to outcome-based pricing. Sell AI agents as services (e.g., competitive intelligence at $9.99/month) rather than traditional software. GenSpark exemplifies 'super app' trend—multi-model, integrated platform reducing friction and cost.
