A 30-person marketing agency came to us at AgentVania with a problem that sounded simple: they wanted to switch CRMs. They’d been on their existing platform for four years. 11,000+ contact records, full interaction histories, deal pipelines, custom fields tracking campaign performance for every client. The works. When they tried to export it, the tool […]

The story goes like this: AI is going to take your job, rot your brain, and replace the relationships that make life worth living. We’ll become passive, dependent, emotionally hollowed-out, a species that forgot how to think because we outsourced it to machines. I’ve heard this narrative from smart people. I’ve read it in serious […]

I spend a lot of time in between things. Waiting in the car for school pickup. Sitting in a doctor’s waiting room. Stuck in traffic on the way home. Twenty minutes before a call that got pushed back.

You’ve probably heard “AI agent” thrown around a lot lately. It appears in tech news, startup pitches, LinkedIn posts, and increasingly in conversations between business owners who are trying to figure out what to actually do with AI. The term gets used loosely, though. Sometimes it means something impressive. Sometimes it just means a chatbot […]

How to Evaluate an AI Tool Before You Pay for It How to Evaluate an AI Tool Before You Pay for It By Jean Galea · March 2026 There is a new AI tool launching every week, and most of them come with a landing page full of breathless promises. “10x your productivity.” “Automate everything.” […]

If you run a business, you’ve probably heard the term “AI agent” enough times that it’s starting to sound like noise. Consultants are pitching them. LinkedIn is full of people explaining how they’ve automated everything. Investors keep asking if you’re using them. And yet if someone asked you to explain exactly what an AI agent […]

I didn’t set out to run an AI agency. I was a WordPress entrepreneur for over a decade, building products like WP Mayor, WP RSS Aggregator, and the Spotlight plugin.
