Most people think building a powerful AI copilot takes months of coding and a team of engineers, but in this episode Ilan shows how he built one in just one evening that could plan strategy, analyze competitors, write product documents, and even automate workflows. We break down exactly how to set up your system prompt, feed it real context, and use recursion to make it smarter with every iteration, plus how to turn it into a productivity machine that does the work of an entire product team. If you have ever wished for an AI business partner that actually thinks with you, this is the blueprint.
