Running a startup could be overwhelming

That's why I built Basilio!

Basilio is my new AI assistant, trained on our data (Drive, Hubspot, Notion), so he can help me be more efficient for PickEat. He manages 5 employees:

- Sales manager
- Operations manager
- Report manager
- Project Manager
- Archivista (archive manager)

And he's about to hire 3 more!

All I did was follow this video:  https://lnkd.in/ebr5c4iH

How it works
It will help you run AI on your terminal with access to your tools via api or MCP servers. This way can generate agents able to manage multiple tasks simultaneously (Claude's agent function).
Best of all? It's so smart that it builds itself.

For the past couple of days, it produced reports, prepared a CRM list of prospects, prepared my meetings, created an updated task list, and  documented each step (it also updates itself if you make it smart with documentation)

I am mindblown.

All you need is a Claude subscription (but you can also use Gemini for free to begin with or add more AIs with smaller models for heavy lifting)

I have no coding experience and was able to build it. 

Chuck Keith you are a hero, sir

PS: worried about company permissions and sensitive data? Can be handled ;)

Gemini 3?

Wait until you take a look at Antigravity.

Released by Google, it’s like if Lovable had a baby with Cursor’s code view. The feature set is wild:

• Distinct Plan / Code / Review modes.
• Generates and edits images internally with "nano banana" (yes, really).
• Runs multiple AI agents on different tasks simultaneously (like editing w/ comments à la Notion).
• Has a built-in browser agent debugger that actually tests the platform.

I can’t wait to test this over the weekend.

What about you?

Gemini 3, OpenAI 5.1, improved Claude, new Deepseek (OCR), but also KIMI thinking… It’s going lightning fast. No wonder talent is moving around.

Meanwhile, the LinkedIn post scheduler deleted my post ....

[pic generated with Nanobanana - just gave my post as reference :) ]

PS: Do we call this a tool Friday Alex Roggero⚡️?

What if you could give your AI superpowers?

In 2 minutes. No code.

I connected Claude to HackerNews, YouTube, and my notes with Docker, Inc MCP.

Now I can ask:
→ "What's trending on HackerNews about AI?"
→ "Save this analysis to my vault"

And Claude does it. Live.

Since I started with terminal + MCP:
- Better outputs
- More accuracy
- NO MORE COPY/PASTE
- NO MORE CONTEXT LOSS

The future isn't AI that answers.
It's AI that acts - based on your guardrails, your tools, your databases

Want to see a competitive analysis or article generated this way? Drop me a message

PS: Back to building in public. Maybe not on LinkedIn, but I got some pushes here and there :)

All the credits and thanks to Chuck Keith 💚

Last week I risked it with animal protection.

I pushed a Llama into my Mac. The result? Free AI.

Ollama is a tool that lets you run AI models directly on your computer. No cloud, no subscriptions, no data leaving your laptop.

🦙 Why do I care?

 → Test and iterate with no limits
 → Works offline
 → My data stays mine
 → Completely free and open source

🤖  It won't replace ChatGPT or Claude for complex tasks.

But for everyday work—drafts, data cleaning, quick research—it gets the job done 🦙

And it makes you realize: AI isn't magic. It's software. You can run it wherever you want.

Want to try? brew install ollama — you're live in 5 minutes.
🦙 Anyone here running local models except for Lorenzo?


Alex I am writing this only because you made me feel guilty.. so ye, it’s a TOOL FRIDAY! 


No Llamas were hurt while creating that image with Nanobanana pro

FOMO is everything on LinkedIn nowadays

I already see people seeking for templates for Gemini 3

The model came out 6 days ago.

Unless is your only job I doubt you’d be fine tuned a model in 5 days.

YouTubers are only coming out now and that is their job.

I wonder… how is this possible?


Going back to my Reddit hole

Reddit, Inc.  is outstanding

I always used it but now I am active and my life changed for the better

I’m trying to build and improve agents while sharpening my automation skills and everything I need is there.

Really deep tech answers (documented), reliable sources, friendly people and lots of free stuff.

I got outstanding n8n templates out there which I’m playing with right now..

Have a deep question you always wanted an answer to?

Try “site: Reddit-yourquestion”

You can also find amusing stuff like the guy that makes incredible headphones (see pic in comment)

No alternative text description for this image

I switched from Notion to Obsidian, and my life got better

Am I crazy?

As much as I love Notion, I needed my place. A calm and peaceful place to organise myself and my ''brain''.

I tried Obsidian before, but didn't like the UI.. There's a bit of a learning curve, while Notion is a playground.

But here's the thing: I'm getting the best of both worlds.

Obsidian is connected with my agents that document everything I need ➡️ then I push all relevant company updates on Notion for team management

That cuts the noise for me, and I think I only scratched the surface.

And you, have you ever tried Obsidian?
