Description

Most weeks on Agents of Scale, you’ll hear from CEOs and execs scaling AI across industries. But this week, we’re zooming in on how AI can transform a single person—and by extension, entire businesses.

Joe’s story starts with living in his car after cycling through 32 jobs. Then he discovered Zapier. What began as small automations for a roofing company turned into a career building systems for influencers, enterprises, and beyond.

In this episode, Zapier CEO Wade Foster talks with Joe about the moment automation “clicked,” how he taught himself APIs with the help of AI, and why curiosity and small wins can completely rewrite your trajectory.
