I STOPPED COPY-PASTING. NOW 10 AGENTS WORK FOR ME.

I'm Sean Looi — a civil engineer turned systems builder. I teach business owners and teams to hand real work to AI agents, in plain language, on the laptop they already own.

“You make something like AI agents so layman, so easy to understand step by step. I'm a lecturer — I think you teach better than I do.”

THE SHORT VERSION

FROM CONCRETE TO CODE.

  1. 2012

    Civil engineer.

    Built structures. Learned that anything worth building needs a solid foundation first — and started making shortcuts for every boring task.

  2. 2017

    First systems.

    Swapped manual hustle for funnels and automations. The obsession with systems began.

  3. 2019

    3,000 people, one backend.

    Built the automated workflows that ran a 3,000-strong entrepreneur network — onboarding, lead generation and coaching without daily manual work. Featured by Jotform and EasyStore.

  4. 2024

    AutoRunBiz.

    Co-founded AutoRunBiz PLT with my wife, Krystle.

  5. 2026

    The 4am problem.

    I was using ChatGPT the way most people do: ask how, do it myself, hit a problem, ask again — copy, paste, until 4 or 5am. Then I switched to agents. Jobs that took me three weeks now sometimes take minutes, because the agent does the work.

The night I stopped asking AI for answers
“I use ChatGPT: how to do something. ChatGPT tells me how, then I do it, then I hit a problem, then I ask again. Copy, paste, copy, paste until 4 or 5 AM almost every day.”
Three weeks of work became three minutes

HOW I TEACH

NO JARGON. NO LONG PROMPTS. NO ONE LEFT BEHIND.

  1. 01

    Treat it like a new intern.

    Tell it the job, set the rules, check the work. That one mindset shift does more than any prompt template.

  2. 02

    Start with one boring job.

    A reminder. A calendar entry. A receipt. Get one thing working, then stack the next.

  3. 03

    Build it on your own laptop.

    You leave with an agent that's yours, not a demo that lives on my screen.

  4. 04

    Only teach what's running here.

    Every example comes from our own company — bookkeeping, content, calendars, paperwork. If it doesn't work for us, I don't teach it.

An agent is AI connected to tools

STUDENTS, IN THEIR OWN WORDS

DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT.

“Second day, having this second agent and sub-agent is just mind-blowing and fantastic. A one-man show can go a long way in running a company. And the teaching is so personal, so direct — it's just like having private tutoring.”

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK US

What's the difference between ChatGPT and an AI agent?

ChatGPT tells you what to do. An agent is AI connected to tools — your calendar, files, apps and computer — so it goes and does it, and remembers your business next time.

Do I need to know coding?

No. If you can install an app and copy-paste, you can do this.

Which tools do you teach?

Right now: a free, open-source agent called Hermes, running on your own laptop, connected to ChatGPT and Telegram. Tools change; the method doesn't. There's a free setup guide.

Do you build agents for clients?

Our focus is teaching. We'd rather you and your team can build and run your own.

Can you speak at our event?

Yes — WhatsApp Krystle with the date, audience and format.

YOUR FIRST AGENT IS ONE CLASS AWAY.
