Cloud personal agents blew up this half of the year.
I put the "cloud computer" specs of xAI Grok Bot, OpenAI Dots, Meta Muse and Manus Cue side by side. Musk turned out to be the most generous of the four, and grok-bot's config isn't even close.

Started using muse. The machine is a bit weak, forget dev, even
heavy office work is a stretch. Its only real job is life assistant. Estimated monthly tokens: free tier ~1B, $20 plan 2B, $100 plan 12B. Sign-up is simple: clean US IP plus a USD bank card for the $1 verification charge. Roll your own fingerprint browser or use a cloud one (Gemini Spark's browser, browser-use, hyperbrowser). The grok bot browser won't get you in, it goes straight to the waitlist.
Most people don't know this: Command Code's Go plan is $1/mo and
5 of its models are free. Input, output, cache read: $0. They don't touch the $10 credit pool, and they don't count toward the $3/5h, $6/week, or $10/month limits. When your paid models run out of credit, the free ones still work. As long as the sub hasn't lapsed, they keep going regardless. https://commandcode.ai/docs/plans/go
I stuffed an agent into an Android phone.
You've probably run into those short videos lately where an agent drives a phone around by itself. This one is called Mika, and it's a free open-source project. It's an Android app that works in the background through accessibility mode, so it can use pretty much any other app you have installed. Reply to someone on WeChat, scroll Xiaohongshu, drop something in a cart and check out. It finds the buttons by looking at the screen. There's no API to wire up, and it doesn't care what resolution your phone is. When it reaches a payment step or a captcha it stops and lets you finish. 🔗 github.com/wangzan101/Mika
My product went profitable, and something in me broke.
Someone on Xiaohongshu posted a while back that she sells phone keyboard skins she made with Codex. Eight, ten yuan a pack. Over a thousand a month. I've been at mine for months. October: a few hundred copies, $1,200 gross. Platform fee 30%, tax 10%, so 60% should have landed. It came to just over a thousand dollars. I still don't know how the math pulled that off. I have an overseas bank account. Once lost $500 to a wire transfer off one. I'd still tell you to take payout through WorldFirst: less hassle, lower fees. You can also get a Hong Kong USD credit card tied to it that spends your WorldFirst balance directly. Digital card is free. Physical is $4. Mainland purchases under ¥200 skip the processing fee, and right now there's 1% cashback.
