The proof
65 scheduled systems, one person.
Counted on this Mac on 8 November 2026: 65 scheduled jobs, backups excluded. Each runs on its own clock, writes to its own log, and pages my phone through one channel. None of them sends, pays or deletes without me. Recounted every quarter.
Finance
Employer work. Described without entity, vendor or system names.
Multi-entity consolidation check
Reads eleven books from the ledger, rebuilds the consolidation lines, reports every difference. Daily. Writes nothing to the ERP.
Loan book from bank statements
Files bank PDFs into an append-only ledger; anything it cannot match waits in a review queue for a person.
Position statement pipeline
Loads broker statements, checks row counts against the source, stops when they disagree. Daily, with a watch job.
Warehouse operations status
Checks the logistics platform and reports. Daily, with a watch job.
Household finance
Bank and broker sync, ten daily watch conditions, a month close that stops at a readiness gate, a quarterly review. Six jobs.
Real estate (California)
A brokerage I co-own.
For-rent-by-owner leads
Sweeps listings twice a day, groups them into properties, drafts an email. Capped at six drafts a day. A person presses send. Four jobs.
For-sale-by-owner leads
Same pattern, for owners selling without an agent.
Expired listings
Daily. Joins expired listings to parcels, scrubs Do Not Call and licence status, builds a letter pack. Sends nothing.
Distressed listing underwriting
Ingests every distressed listing nightly, underwrites against eight buy boxes, caps comp spend at two dollars. A person makes the offer. Four jobs.
Foreclosure calendar
Rebuilt daily from recorder notices and published sale notices.
Public records sweep
Reads recorded property documents for private lenders and cash buyers; weekly matches against new listings. Two jobs.
Contacts store
One record per person across every pipeline, with consent and Do Not Call per phone. Two jobs.
Monthly market data
Pulls the MLS with no model in the data path and checks seven metrics against a second source. Two jobs.
Industry news triage
Eleven sources, daily, about a cent a call.
Practice research
Mentor material ingested nightly, claims graded A to D, only A and B promoted. Two jobs.
Home services front desk
A call CRM that refuses an incomplete interview.
Operations
The systems that run the rest.
Chief of staff
Reads nineteen sources and briefs me at 06:40 for about 54 cents. Weekly, monthly and evening check-in runs. Four jobs.
Mission Control
A ten-stage board where the agent builds and ships cards; I rule at the plan gate and type the merge. Seven jobs.
Reminders review
Reviews my list at 05:45, closes items only with named evidence, launches a session at 07:00 for anything a session can start. Four jobs.
Meeting notes
Files call recordings into the vault three times a day; about four in ten go to an inbox for me to sort.
Research pipeline
Mines YouTube and papers nightly into notes; a daily analysis promotes principles that keep appearing. Two jobs.
Telegram channels
One sender for every page to my phone, with a style check. Called by every job above.
Housekeeping
CLI updates, credential probes, vault tooling checks, keep-awake. Eight jobs.
Household
Same method, smaller stakes.
Noah's reader
Grade-one stories built from his school word list, misses tapped on an iPad, a cold fluency probe every two weeks against a published benchmark, the next set written once the last is read. Three jobs.
Family meals
A weekly plan and grocery list, pruned by what was actually cooked.
Investments
Portfolio sync and drift monitor; every order is placed by hand. Two jobs.
One email a fortnight
One system, taken apart, with the figures.
The problem, the workflow, what AI built for each part, where a person still decides, and what it costs to run. Nothing else, and nothing for sale.
One line is enough. I add you by hand and reply within two working days.
