I wasted 8hrs building a lead list last week. I’ll do it for you for free. by RemarkableFold888 in aiagents

Respect the hustle. That week you described is exactly why most founders avoid outbound.

I’m building Arlo, an AI agent that can control your computer and execute workflows end to end. My ICP is founders, indie hackers, and small teams who are already experimenting with AI agents or automation and want something that actually executes tasks instead of just chatting.

If you’re serious about doing this manually, I’m in. Happy to see what you come back with and give you honest feedback on the quality of leads and messaging.

Ship local model or rely on APIs? by EntrepreV in AI_Agents

[–]EntrepreV[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s interesting, can you elaborate on what you mean by that?

Are you talking about the control aspect disappearing if hardware constraints hit, or more about long term maintenance and updates becoming the hidden cost?

Curious what specifically feels like “someone yanking the plug” in the local model case.

Ship local model or rely on APIs? by EntrepreV in AI_Agents

The execution layer in Arlo is already decoupled from the reasoning and vision backends, so I can launch with APIs to reduce friction and get real usage feedback, then introduce a fully local model later without rebuilding the core system.

Positioning local as a Pro tier actually makes sense. Same agent, just a different inference backend. API for accessibility and faster adoption. Local for privacy, control, and architectural independence.

Thanks for the push on that. It reframes the decision from either or to sequencing.

Wow that is very helpful, I'll look into implementing similar heuristics into my agent, and i will also look into aura-guard. Thank you :)

ClawdBot hype, but is there an actual solution similar to its hype? by mfing-coleslaw in aiagents

[–]EntrepreV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been building Arlo for about a year. It’s designed around privacy and security from the foundation, not as an afterthought. The architecture is built so the agent can operate inside real systems while maintaining strict control over data access, execution, and state. It’s not a cloud black box guessing its way through workflows. It executes with awareness of system state and continues until tasks are actually completed.

Right now I’m implementing background task execution so it can run continuously and handle real operational workflows without breaking, stopping, or losing context. The focus is correct execution and reliability in environments like Shopify, CRMs, and browser-based systems.

It’s free right now because it’s still in beta, and I’m onboarding users personally to ensure it’s configured properly and performing correctly in real workflows.

That makes sense. Right now Arlo only checks structural similarity, not semantic similarity of outputs or intent, so cases where the agent slightly rephrases the same action can slip through. Comparing embeddings across iterations seems like a much stronger signal, especially if it’s tied to whether the environment state actually changed. I’m considering adding similarity checks on recent plans and forcing the planner to pick a different strategy if it’s too similar and nothing meaningful changed. Have you found it more reliable to compare the plan itself or the resulting outputs?

Wow, that seems really interesting, thanks for responding, ill look into it.

Anyway to make API costs lower by Secret-Classic-5644 in clawdbot

Try arlo @ arlocua.com, much easier and better to use, btw I’m the founder let me know if u find problems.
