AI Agents are too good at marketing now

About this episode

I sit down with Cody Schneider, to break down how to become a top 0.1% marketer with GrokBot, Claude Code, and the tools around them. Cody shows the environment an agent needs to do marketing work: data in a warehouse, write access to ad platforms, and API tools for images, video, and leads. We build static ads live for Idea Browser, Late Checkout, Cursor, and more, then make a UGC avatar video ad with motion graphics for about $5. I add two pieces of my own: a swipe warehouse of creative references and a creative director agent that scores every ad. If you build products and hear crickets, this episode gives you workflows you can set up today.

A data pipeline into a warehouse gives agents full-funnel data and keeps them off rate-limited APIs. Agents write to Facebook and Google Ads through their APIs and read data only from the warehouse. One skill turns a brand URL into five researched, on-brand static ads. A UGC avatar ad with motion graphics costs about $5, compared with $300 to $500 from humans. Creative velocity wins, since Facebook's algorithm matches good creative to the right buyer.
