How I Use AI Agents Inside a $15M Company

AI tools for founders can save weeks of wasted work, but only if you build your AI stack in the right order.

In this episode, Mark breaks down the exact AI stack he uses inside a $15M real estate business, including Perplexity, Manus, Claude, Claude Code, CoWork, and OpenClaw.

This is not a “what’s trending” AI tools list. It is a practical founder roadmap for using AI agents to build systems, scale operations, manage change, and create leverage across a real business with real customers, real pressure, and real revenue targets. Mark explains why most founders start with the wrong AI tool, how to choose between cloud agents and local agents, and why Claude has become the core operating layer behind his property concierge model.

If you are a founder, operator, entrepreneur, or business owner trying to use AI to save time, build systems, and scale smarter, this episode gives you the order to start in: week one, month one, month three, and month six.
