AI builders digest — monitors top AI builders on X and YouTube podcasts, remixes their content into digestible summaries. Follow builders, not influencers.

What it solves

Follow Builders is an AI-powered digest system that helps users avoid "influencer" noise by tracking and summarizing content from actual AI researchers, founders, and engineers. It automates the curation of technical insights from podcasts, X/Twitter, and official company blogs, delivering a tailored summary to the user's preferred messaging app.

How it works

The system uses a central feed that is updated daily with content from blog articles, YouTube transcripts, and X/Twitter posts. An AI agent (such as OpenClaw or Claude Code) fetches this central feed via a single HTTP request. The agent then uses customizable plain-English prompt files to summarize and translate the raw content according to the user's delivery preferences (frequency, language, and platform).

Who it’s for

Professionals and enthusiasts in the AI space who want to stay updated on original opinions and technical deep-dives from top builders rather than regurgitated information.

Highlights

  • Agent-based setup: Setup is handled conversationally through an AI agent, removing the need for manual configuration files.
  • No API keys required: Content is fetched centrally, so users do not need to maintain their own scraping or social media API keys.
  • Customizable summaries: Users can adjust the tone, length, and length of summaries either by talking to their agent or by editing plain-text prompt files.
  • Multi-platform delivery: Supports delivery via Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, email, or directly in-chat.
  • Curated source list: Automatically tracks a curated list of 26 AI builders on X, 6 podcasts, and official blogs from Anthropic and Claude.
