In the future, we’ll all have highly personal apps that do our very specific tasks, professionally and personally.

These won’t be off-the-shelf tools like Gemini, Claude, or ChatGPT.

They will be tools that we build using these off-the-shelf subscriptions.

Why is it important to start automating tasks that are repetitive and wasting your time right now, knowing that these models will only improve?

Let me use an analogy:

If you are a lucky homeowner, you know the difference between the bones of your house and a remodel job.

The bones are what you buy. The ability to remodel is the ability give your home a facelift every time $50,000 is burning a hole in your pocket.

Given unlimited resource, I’m sure that every homeowner wouldn’t mind a regular remodel, an easy way to keep their home fresh for decades.

Well, that’s how AI works.

You use the tools available today to build the bones of your app. You set up the databases, the structures, and the concepts behind the personal apps that automate your life and business. You accept that these apps are imperfect works in progress.

Here’s the beautiful part: each time a new model drops, with greater capabilities, you get to have it go through your code base and improve, fix errors, and apply a new coat of paint. In this way, you can improve your house of code every time a new model drops, often in one fell swoop.

I’ve built over 20 apps at this point, and as soon as Claude announced Opus 4.7, the first thing I did was have it run through my codebase, update, refactor, and polish. This is how my apps are constantly improving and becoming more functional and useful over time.

But you can’t remodel a house that doesn’t exist. You can’t improve on an app that you haven’t built.

So today is the day to build the foundation of your house. And trust that you will be able to remodel it perpetually over the years. Just think of what kind of palace you’ll have five years from now, if you start today?
