Today is day 80 and the end of YC.
Final results:
- MRR +4100%
- Daily automation runs +650%
- Finally feel confident saying we’re making something people love
Legitimately sad
@ycombinator
is over but grateful it happened. So excited for what’s next.
Going for another 80
I’m going to work as hard as humanly possible every single day for the next 80 days.
Will update with results.

You can add if-else statements within the flows + ask GPT to fallback on 'unknown' when it's unsure to gracefully handle failure scenarios.
I tried to keep this example flow simple for demo purposes but it's easy to tweak to handle any sorts of failures.

They initially had a categorization step so Ai read every email which worked but switched to using a gmail inbox filter that labelled it as a receipt if it had certain key words + had an attachment.
That’s what they settled on because it’s more efficient.

To an engineer, anything is scriptable with a few APIs and some python. If you're not technical, building and hosting something like that is completely out of reach.
'Extremely easily' is a relative term.
That's exactly why we built Gumloop :)

Thanks. People are using AgentHub to power their own products.
