Bob Is My CEO. Bill Handles Bug Fixes. They’re All AI.

Bob is my CEO. Bill handles bug fixes. Riker is CMO. Bridget keeps customers happy. They are all AI but I treat them like my employees.

That was the subject of the 125 person webinar I just hosted for Long Angle. There is real momentum around this topic. But first, let me back up.

After 15 years in SaaS, I decided to exit the corporate world last August. It was a time allocation decision. My goal: follow my curiosity, build with AI and buy assets that cashflow.

Since August, I purchased a retail strip mall in Texas, launched a short-term rental in West Palm Beach and attempted to buy two businesses. Those failed attempts led me to discover something — a painful business buying process with no clear solutions.

So, I built SearcherOS. It's an enterprise-grade Salesforce style CRM built for acquiring businesses. It's used by searchers, micro-PE and family offices. It's profitable and growing. Built by a guy with zero Python skills.

Then, the pain of scaling that SaaS led me to something even more interesting. As a solo founder, there isn't enough time in the day to fix bugs, answer customer queries, launch new features, and build a GTM motion.

So, I started “hiring” AI employees using OpenClaw. That was the subject of the webinar.

I'm putting in 70 hour weeks but I have more energy and excitement than any time in my career. AI has allowed me to be a full end-to-end creator and I am locked in.

I gave myself until December 2026 to make this work. Nothing like a deadline to drive momentum.
