How Agencies Can Deliver More Value by Letting Go
In the traditional agency model, you eventually reach a phase of the engagement where the core app has been built, and further features will be billed at an hourly rate for a dev managed by the agency. That hourly rate can be double or triple what the dev is receiving - because the agency will provide management services or some other kind of support alongside those hours. But by the agency charging rent on every hour that dev works, they become a pebble in the client's shoe, making it that much harder for them to accomplish their goal of building a successful product. It is unlikely that they are providing value on every hour that the dev works, to where a 2-3X multiple is justified. If our north star is the client's success, then it seems that a more favorable arrangement can be made; the client working directly with the dev, without the agency's involvement. For the client, they get a dev who is already trained, and the cost of hiring them just went down. For the dev, they get a client they are familiar with, and a raise relative to what the agency was paying them. For the agency, the amount of hours doing management work just went down, and the amount of hours doing high impact work just went up. You have allowed yourself to step out of where you are not adding much value, and step into areas where you are most needed. Areas such as training the client and their team in how to manage Stripe subscriptions themselves. Showing their UI/UX designer how to go straight from Figma to WeWeb, streamlining their development process. Workshops for their backend developer in how to use Xano, so they can bind data directly to the front end and eliminate bottlenecks. You can also continue to provide management to the dev, according to a set schedule. The agency becomes a high-impact catalyst, enabling the client to stand on their own two feet faster and more effectively. By focusing on empowerment rather than dependence, you can create a win-win-win scenario for the client, the dev, and the agency. The client gets a successful product, the dev gets on-going work, and the agency gets to make a real difference while maintaining healthy margins.

I very much like this concept. Shifting mindsets, shifting paradigms. Away from the fear of scarcity.
Talk with your automations
I built my first mobile App with FlutterFlow. It literally enables you to talk with your custom built personal AI Agents. For more details, check out this video: https://youtu.be/qe23D1hgLwY You can also download a template for the backend there to get started quickly.

FlutterFlow Hackathon - my app
Hey, I was able to create and submit my project for the FF Hackathon. Unfortunately my project didn't make the top 10, but I'm happy that I was able to create something after using FlutterFlow for only 2 weeks. It was more of an experiment and fun to play with the FF platform and AI models. The app creates futuristic stories about business ideas from the future after submitting a keyword or a sentence about an idea, for example: phone or decentralized energy storage. The app will create with one request a story title, product name, story hero name, industry name, and content. The app then runs two parallel actions to create the image and audio for the story. It uses gpt-4o for stories, dall-e 3 for images and openai tts-hd for audio. For the image and audio generation workflows, I used BuildShip because it was better at handling the base64 format and storing the files on the Google storage. Alex Hormozi inspired me to create an audio version for the story, so you can read and listen at the same time for a deeper learning experience. It's a community app, you can also read the stories generated by other users. The audio is generated only once and stored on Google storage, so other users don't have to generate the audio again. The app can also be used as a template to create any type of content, such as articles with images, social media posts, and educational materials. It's enough to adapt only the prompt in the API call, eventually OpenAI function call in json format, and you can create any content. You can test the app here, it's designed for mobile, but it's possible to run it as a PWA: https://inspirium.flutterflow.app/ It's free, and don't hesitate to create as much stories and images as you want, I have a lot of Azure OpenAI credits ;) There is a signup form, but you can use a test email like name@test_com.

Thats cool. Next time you‘ll make it in the Top 10! I just started exploring FlutterFlow. Pretty neat solution to build cross platform compatible apps.
What's your favorite Low-Code tool?
We are tech-agnostic here - my view is that the best tool for the job depends on the job. With that being said, what tool do you find yourself using the most? This could include Zapier, N8N, and more! Which of the following tools do you use most frequently in your work?

That‘s nice. Shows again how fast such solutions can be built. If you are looking into advanced AI capabilities, you should check out n8n. It comes with Langchain buit-in. Actually I published a video and template, which demonstrates this on a somewhat similar use case, also using Airtable+Softr: https://n8n.io/workflows/2377-turn-emails-into-ai-enhanced-tasks-in-notion-multi-user-support-with-gmail-airtable-and-softr/
