Night Staff For Your Business.

An engine is an agent with a schedule. It works while nobody watches, inside one folder it owns, and leaves finished work where you can collect it. You write a one-page brief describing one job, sign it, and paste one prompt into your scheduler. Publishing and spending stay entirely in your hands.

The first time you open the folder and the work is already done, you will understand the second wave better than any article could explain it. That moment is the product.

Jobs People Give Their First Engine.

One job, written on one page. Steal any of these briefs as your first.

CONSULTANTS · AGENCIES

The Monday market scan

Every Monday early, read the saved industry sources. Produce a one-page brief: what changed, why it matters to clients, three talking points. Done = brief in the folder before the workday starts.

COACHES · CREATORS

Content repurposing

Each run, take the newest transcript from the recordings folder and draft one newsletter issue and three short posts in my voice. Done = drafts staged with the source quoted.

CONSULTANTS

Client meeting prep

Each night, read the calendar export and build a prep sheet for tomorrow's calls: last meeting's notes, open items, anything new from the saved sources. Done = one sheet per meeting, waiting in the folder.

BROKERS · ACCOUNTANTS

Renewal prep

Each week, read the CRM export and list the clients entering the 90-day window. Draft the check-in email and the prep pack for each. Done = one pack per client, staged for review.

AGENCIES

Proposal first drafts

When discovery notes land in the intake folder, draft the proposal against our template and rate card. Done = a draft plus a plain list of every assumption it made.

EVERY OWNER

The Friday ops digest

Every Friday, read the week's journals and task exports. Produce the Monday digest: what shipped, what stalled, what needs a decision from me. Done = one page, three sections.

From Download To Running Engine.

1

Read the README, pick your job

Ten minutes. Choose one recurring job that eats your time; the job menu above has six worth stealing.

2

Write and sign the brief

Copy the template, answer six prompts in plain language, sign it. The engine checks it to the letter every run and stops to ask if a single character has changed.

3

Paste the prompt into your scheduler

One prompt, pasted whole. The walkthrough shows exactly where it goes, click by click.

4

Open the folder in the morning

The first run sets up; every run after produces. Finished work in artifacts, a journal of every move, and a knock if it ever needs you.
