Overview
Ready to automate — on your own terms? A full-day, hands-on build at WSTI, where you'll set up a Business AI OS on Hermes — the open-source AI agent you run yourself. Lunch + optional consultation included.
\> "I want AI actually running my business — but on my terms: my data, my computer, my costs." Sound familiar? You're ready for the next step.
You'll build a Business AI OS — the foundation that holds your business's context, memory and tool connections and powers every Agent that runs on it. By day's end you'll have assembled a Chief-of-Staff agent that triages a whole inbox into one dashboard, plus a content agent for social — on a real business scenario, on software that's yours to take home.
Why Hermes — what a rented AI tool can't give you
\- 🔓 Hermes Agent. Free & open-source. Take Hermes home and set up the same thing for your own business, on your own computer.
\- 🔒 Your data stays with you. Hermes runs on your own machine and connects to your own accounts — your emails never sit on someone else's cloud.
\- 💸 Your model, your cost — your choice. You're not locked to one paid provider: plug in a low-cost model, or an all-in subscription if you prefer. You control the bill.
\- 📱 It lives where you do. Connect Hermes to WhatsApp and run your business from your phone — get the morning's inbox triage sent straight to you.
What You'll Walk Out With
A Business AI OS that knows your business — its context, voice, prices and tools — running on Hermes, on a real scenario (the foundation everything else builds on)
A Chief of Staff that runs your inbox for you — a team of specialist agents that sort, draft and prioritise every email into one dashboard, and run themselves every morning on a schedule (drafts only — never sends without you)
A content agent for the other direction — it spots a happy-custom
