Why now

AI agents can now connect directly to SaaS tools (like Ghost, PostHog) to perform complex multi-step setups, research, and reporting that previously required human analysts or writers.

Market gap

Agencies have high overhead due to human labor; an AI-powered agency can offer the same services at a higher margin, lower price, or higher speed.
