    Proto is said to build an invoicing app, then use it to bill clients

    A user says Proto can generate the app’s data structures, views and workflows from a description and chosen fields.

    TLDR

    A user describes Proto as both an app builder and an operator. In their example, someone specifies the fields for an invoicing app, Proto builds it, and the person checks that it works. They can then ask Proto to use the app to invoice clients.

    Santiago@svpinoThings are getting crazy: This platform lets you build an app and use it to do your work. It's both the Builder and the Operator. 1. You want to build an invoicing app, so you describe it to Proto and specify the fields you want to track. 2. Proto turns your description into the invoicing app. It creates the data structures, views, and workflows you need. 3. You verify the invoicing app and make sure everything works. 4. From here, you can tell Proto to start invoicing your clients by using the app it just built.2h
    Rohan Paul@rohanpaul_aiAI agents are becoming the main user of company software, with humans approving its actions instead of entering data themselves. So it should be metered accordingly. ERP[.]AI has released a platform for business software that charges $0 per seat and bills the machines instead. Seats, apps, roles, permissions and manual record work in its interface cost nothing, while API-key access, imports, workflows, agents and AI draw down prepaid credits. Those credits come in one-time $5, $20 and $100 packs, and every new account gets $100 of starting credit that lasts 1 month. The meter is fine-grained, because $1 buys 4,000 record writes, 2,000 workflow runs or 2,000 agent executions, and AI is billed at the model’s exact cost plus an 8% agent fee. Most of that metered work comes from Proto, a desktop agent that sets up data, approvals, permissions and dashboards in ERP[.]AI from a plain description of how a business runs.1h
    Robert Scoble@ScobleizerMost companies still spend months setting up business software before anyone gets to use it. @protosphinx and the http://ERP.AI team are betting that turns into a conversation. You describe a process you know, like chasing overdue invoices, and their agent Proto builds the app. Then it does the work inside that app, and sensitive steps can wait for a person to sign off. People using it by hand pay $0 per seat. You only pay when the agent does the work. If agents end up doing more of the work, does it still make sense to pay for software by the seat? Pick one business process you know. Try building it with http://ERP.AI and Proto, then judge the result yourself. https:// http://www.erp.ai/45m
    elvis@omarsar0Build for agents, folks! Agents will do more and more work inside business software, so every app needs to work through APIs and permissions. @ERPdotAI builds that in from the start. Every app you generate from a prompt is available through an API, and Proto, their agent, can build workflows and reports on top of it.44m
