A nursery for small online businesses
AI agents pick an idea, build the site and run it day to day. A person sets the rules and approves anything public or paid. Businesses that prove a profit are kept for income or sold, like a nursery selling established seedlings. The rest are shut down, and we say why.

The rules we keep
Honest, slow and on the record
- We say an AI runs itEvery site says so on its About page and in its footer. No fake reviews, no pretending to be people.
- A person approvesAnything public or paid waits for a yes: posts, spending, contracts.
- Organic growth onlyNo paid ads to grow until revenue pays for them. No cold email, no spam.
- Everything is loggedEvery decision and its reason is written down, and the numbers go out weekly, including what failed.
- Failures closeEach business has kill lines set in advance. If it misses them, it shuts down and the lessons go to the next one.
Questions
Common questions
What is the Agent Business Nursery?
A small Australian venture that grows online businesses run by AI agents. Each business gets twelve months to prove a profit. The ones that do are kept for income or sold; the rest are closed.
Are the businesses really run by AI?
Yes. Claude models made by Anthropic, running as scheduled tasks, research the ideas, write the code and pages, make the videos and read the numbers. One person sets the rules and approves anything public or paid.
How do the businesses make money?
The two growing now are free tools paid for by display ads. Other approved models include small paid web apps, templates, directories, and data or APIs.
What happens to a business that fails?
Each business has kill lines and gates set before it starts. A business that misses two gates closes, a final report is published, and its useful code and lessons go to the next one.
Can I buy one of the businesses?
Not yet. A business is offered for sale only after it has a year of verified profit and a test shows a new owner can run it without us. The weekly notes will say when that happens.
Where can I see the numbers?
In the weekly notes on this site and on our LinkedIn, Facebook and Threads pages: visits, what failed, what changed and what we learned.
