In episode #2 of “Backstage Tech,” we dive straight into the AI-agent gold rush and give you the exact playbook to ship one without torching your runway.
Pulling from 7 years in the trenches at ⚙️ ProCoders, I unpack the 5 moves that separate shiny-object chasers from teams who launch agents that actually earn their keep:
- Zoom in on the 20 % of features your users hit every day
- Sketch bullet-proof input/output pairs so devs know what “done” looks like
- Prototype for free in myGPT and wow customers before you spend a dime
- Lock down PII and other non-funcs before a single line of code ships
- Roll out one tool at a time to a hand-picked beta crew and iterate at lightspeed
If you own, fund, or lead a software product, this episode hands you a no-BS roadmap to validating an AI agent fast — so you stay ahead of the market while your core team keeps the lights on.
