About the podcast
Hi 👋 I'm Nick. I've helped millions of people learn cutting-edge technology like Claude Code, Codex, N8N, and Antigravity. I first started in the agency world, founding two service businesses that scaled to a combined $160,000/m in revenue. Since then, I've worked with multibillion dollar enterprises, like Anthropic, Wix, and MrBeast (among many others!)This channel is a way for me to organize my thoughts while providing a guidepost for people that want to improve their AI skills, build an online business, and stay ahead of the rapid changes in both technology and the economy.To that end, you'll find Claude Code tutorials, Antigravity guides, n8n courses, sales masterclasses, and really anything I find interesting or impactful on a day-to-day basis.If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll happily respond in the comments!

WHY ME?
If this is your first watch—hi, I’m Nick! TLDR: I spent five years building automated businesses with Make.com (most notably 1SecondCopy, a content company that hit 7 figures). Today a lot of people talk about automation, but I’ve noticed that very few have practical, real world success making money with it. So this channel is me chiming in and showing you what *real* systems that make *real* revenue look like!
Hopefully I can help you improve your business, and in doing so, the rest of your life :-)

Uploaded 08-07-26
In plain English: I help people build systems that generate leads, close deals, and scale businesses, mostly using new AI models like Claude. I also make videos about how to do all of that here on YouTube.
It hasn't always been this way. My family immigrated from a Soviet bloc country (People's Republic of Bulgaria) in the 90s. They worked extremely hard, and we were broke for a very long time. I grew up wishing for more security, stability, and freedom over my own life.
I don't have a programming degree, and never took formal education for IT or workflows. I learned it all myself from YouTube videos like you're watching now.
As for my path: I started my first business at 19 in college. We threw events (mostly parties) at campus bars, and charged people for entry.
That failed to provide me enough money to pay my bills, so at 21, I started another business, a door-to-door marketing agency.
From there, every year, I would start several companies, over 10 in total. I did this in a variety of industries, like e-commerce, photography, videography, SaaS, credit repair, etc. Each grew slightly more profitable, until, at 25, I would start 1SecondCopy, a content writing company. A friend and I eventually scaled that to over $90,000/m. It was my first taste of financial independence, and the reason I'm here today.
Since starting my journey, I've grown a fair bit of capital. To diversify my income, at 30, I began investing in other businesses and advising companies on how to grow in the AI era. These include SaaS businesses, like Clairvo, agencies like Dental Connect, and more.
Collectively, the businesses that I own outright or are a part of generate over $10 million per year. This returns far more than the 5-10% you would get in the stock market, but also requires a lot of my active time. There's a tradeoff there, but I greatly prefer active investing, where I have control over the entities I'm a part of.
It wasn't easy to get here. But I did in the end! For anyone on their own entrepreneurial journey: I wish you luck, happiness, and perseverance. You can make it!

Summary ⤵️
I built a Fable 5 system that watches everything that I do, then suggests periodic improvements and upgrades to my workflow. It has already saved me over half an hour a day and is likely to save me something like two hours a day once I finish creating workarounds for the inefficiencies it's spotted.
This is a thought experiment. How much more productive and efficient would you be if you could identify every lossy workflow and immediately patch it? Fable 5 lets you do that

Looking to create a beautiful frosted navbar with TailwindCSS? Lucky for you, Tailwind makes it incredibly easy to get started.
Uploaded 28-02-21
It takes maybe 30 seconds tops:
1. Add a bg-opacity utility class to the parent div to make navbar transparent. I used bg-opacity-80 in this video, but you can use whatever level you'd like.
2. Add a bg-clip-padding class to the parent div to constrain the blur effect.
3. Create your own custom CSS class (I called mine blur-backdrop-filter, for instance) that includes a backdrop-filter: blur(6px) property. You can change the pixel value to whatever you'd like - higher means a stronger blur (more frosting), and lower means a weaker blur.
Hope that helps!

Summary ⤵️
The end-to-end, definitive course on Claude Code for beginners! I'll take you through a full four-hour masterclass where I start by teaching you how to set up and install Claude Code in a tutorial, how to configure your IDE or integrated development environment (we'll use Antigravity), how to utilize your CLAUDE.md file as your project brain, how to build your first project in Antigravity using Claude Code in under 15 minutes, advanced Claude Code functionality including hooks, slash commands, and more.
I also teach you how to spin up multiple Claude Code instances and have them work on your behalf; how to parallelize work using sub-agents; how to use Git work trees to accomplish many hours of work in just a few minutes; how to conserve tokens and use context management to crush your coding and software projects; how to deploy things to the cloud using Modal and related services, and in general... how to be awesome at Claude Code! Hope you enjoy the tutorial.

In this video, I rebuild the Sketch.com landing page from scratch using 100% TailwindCSS, and walk you through every one of my development decisions while doing so. I squash a couple of bugs, show you multiple ways to do the same thing, and ultimately present as realistic-of-a-workflow as possible for beginners trying to get up and running with Tailwind.
TailwindCSS is a highly extensible and minimal UI framework that lets you quickly sketch up websites, apps, and landing pages. I use it all the time for my personal projects, and I have yet to find a CSS framework as simple and easy to get started with as Tailwind.

WHY ME?
If this is your first watch—hi, I’m Nick! TLDR: I spent five years building automated businesses with Make.com (most notably 1SecondCopy, a content company that hit 7 figures). Today a lot of people talk about automation, but I’ve noticed that very few have practical, real world success making money with it. So this channel is me chiming in and showing you what *real* systems that make *real* revenue look like!
Hopefully I can help you improve your business, and in doing so, the rest of your life :-)

Uploaded 19-06-26
If this is your first video: I'm Nick Saraev. I run LeftClick, an AI growth consultancy. We've done work for large brands you're likely familiar with, like Mr. Beast, Anthropic, OpenAI, and a few others.
In plain English: I help people build systems that generate leads, close deals, and scale businesses, mostly using new AI models like Claude. I also make videos about how to do all of that here on YouTube.
It hasn't always been this way. My family immigrated from a Soviet bloc country (People's Republic of Bulgaria) in the 90s. They worked extremely hard, and we were broke for a very long time. I grew up wishing for more security, stability, and freedom over my own life.
I don't have a programming degree, and never took formal education for IT or workflows. I learned it all myself from YouTube videos like you're watching now.
As for my path: I started my first business at 19 in college. We threw events (mostly parties) at campus bars, and charged people for entry.
That failed to provide me enough money to pay my bills, so at 21, I started another business, a door-to-door marketing agency.
From there, every year, I would start several companies, over 10 in total. I did this in a variety of industries, like e-commerce, photography, videography, SaaS, credit repair, etc. Each grew slightly more profitable, until, at 25, I would start 1SecondCopy, a content writing company. A friend and I eventually scaled that to over $90,000/m. It was my first taste of financial independence, and the reason I'm here today.
Since starting my journey, I've grown a fair bit of capital. To diversify my income, at 30, I began investing in other businesses and advising companies on how to grow in the AI era. These include SaaS businesses, like Clairvo, agencies like Dental Connect, and more.
Collectively, the businesses that I own outright or are a part of generate over $10 million per year. This returns far more than the 5-10% you would get in the stock market, but also requires a lot of my active time. There's a tradeoff there, but I greatly prefer active investing, where I have control over the entities I'm a part of.
It wasn't easy to get here. But I did in the end! For anyone on their own entrepreneurial journey: I wish you luck, happiness, and perseverance. You can make it!

Summary ⤵️
GLM 5.2 delivers approximately the same performance as Opus 4.8, but at 5x lower cost. In this video, I explore a bunch of tasteful examples of GLM 5.2 versus Opus 4.8's design and development skills, as well as its ability to code software applications like games, interactive flyovers, and more.
I also show you how to set it up yourself within around three minutes or so!

Summary ⤵️
We built a SaaS with Claude Code and AI agents that just hit $1 million/yr ARR called Clairvo!
Clairvo helps you improve your "pickup rates" (TLDR: the portion of people that pick up your calls) using neat, Claude Code-generated techniques like algorithmic predictive pacing, local number rotations, etc.
In this video, I guide you through how to do the same thing for yourself. it's actually fairly easy, assuming you use Claude to enumerate over the space of all possible opportunities!

Summary ⤵️
Claude Skills are extremely powerful, but most people are using them right now for shiny demos and not real driving outcomes that actually move the needle (say, business, revenue, profit, etc).
So, in this course I'm going to show you how to build skills that do important, valuable things for you on autopilot.
It is no exaggeration to say that Claude Skills, as they currently are, can transform the knowledge economy. Imo, if all AI progress were to stop today, we'd probably still be finding new and innovative uses for Claude Skills for the next few years. Not to mention all of the other models/agentic coding platforms out there. They are that good! So I'm going to show you, in this video, how they actually work.

SUMMARY ⤵️
A lot of people have asked me for my daily schedule, and how I used it to build my automation agency, Make.com automations, etc while also running the YouTube channel. Mine is a little unconventional, but I thought I'd record a video for you on it.
TLDR:
- I know a lot of people have defined schedules (say, work "starts" at 7:00am), but personally I've always operated best when I prioritize my sleep and then let the rest follow.
- My schedule is loosely structured around maximizing 'deep work' time. I usually get at least 4 hours/day, sometimes more. If you're unfamiliar with this concept check out Cal Newport's Deep Work.
- My priority is my business. So I spend most of my time on it, especially soon after I wake up. I do not frontload 'holistic' activities like meditation, deep work, cold plunges, etc. There's time for that later.
- I don't burn out because I don't view my business time as strenuous or challenging—I view it as fun! I'm playing an infinite game with infinite people and I wake up most mornings feeling great about it. Highly recommend the frame shift.

SUMMARY ⤵️
Hidden APIs are the next rung up on your skill ladder as an automation engineer. They give you a ton of freedom, and let you automate things that (frankly) most people think are unautomatable. Watch me build an example system in ClickUp that leverages hidden APIs for @suzyquarantine.

If this is your first watch—hi, I’m Nick! TLDR: I spent five years building automated businesses with Make.com (most notably 1SecondCopy, a content company that hit 7 figures). Today a lot of people talk about automation, but I’ve noticed that very few have practical, real world success making money with it. So this channel is me chiming in and showing you what *real* systems that make *real* revenue look like!
Hopefully I can help you improve your business, and in doing so, the rest of your life :-)

➡️ If this is your first video: I'm Nick Saraev. I run LeftClick, an AI growth agency. We've done work for large brands you're likely familiar with, like Mr. Beast, Anthropic, OpenAI, and a few others.
Uploaded 02-09-26
In plain English: I help people build systems that generate leads, close deals, and scale businesses, mostly using new AI models like Claude. I also make videos about how to do all of that here on YouTube.
It hasn't always been this way. My family immigrated from a Soviet bloc country (People's Republic of Bulgaria) in the 90s. They worked extremely hard, and we were broke for a very long time. I grew up wishing for more security, stability, and freedom over my own life.
I don't have a programming degree, and never took formal education for IT or workflows. I learned it all myself from YouTube videos like you're watching now.
As for my path: I started my first business at 19 in college. We threw events (mostly parties) at campus bars, and charged people for entry.
That failed to provide me enough money to pay my bills, so at 21, I started another business, a door-to-door marketing agency.
From there, every year, I would start several companies, over 10 in total. I did this in a variety of industries, like e-commerce, photography, videography, SaaS, credit repair, etc. Each grew slightly more profitable, until, at 25, I would start 1SecondCopy, a content writing company. A friend and I eventually scaled that to over $90,000/m. It was my first taste of financial independence, and the reason I'm here today.
Since starting my journey, I've grown a fair bit of capital. To diversify my income, at 30, I began investing in other businesses and advising companies on how to grow in the AI era. These include SaaS businesses, like Clairvo, agencies like Dental Connect, and more.
Collectively, the businesses that I own outright or are a part of generate over $10 million per year. This returns far more than the 5-10% you would get in the stock market, but also requires a lot of my active time. There's a tradeoff there, but I greatly prefer active investing, where I have control over the entities I'm a part of.
It wasn't easy to get here. But I did in the end! For anyone on their own entrepreneurial journey: I wish you luck, happiness, and perseverance. You can make it!
Summary ⤵️
This is the Clear Thinking Course, a magnum opus I put together over the course of the last few days where I dumped everything that I know about thinking clearly and making effective decisions into one place
This course represents around a decade of my life of learning various thinking techniques on both the hardware side, e.g. biological optimizations, and software side, e.g. thinking techniques and rationality principles
You will learn about things like expected value methodology, Bayes' theorem, the planning fallacy, local and global maxima and minima, the power law, the chain law, exploration versus exploitation, and more!
I hope you enjoy.

This is kind of crazy, but I thought I'd share it with you guys anyway. I fed in a fruit fly brain to GPT-6 Astra and had it modify the brain such that it could do economically valuable tasks for me, like reply to my emails.
Breakdown of how I did that here.

➡️ If this is your first video: I'm Nick Saraev. I run LeftClick, an AI growth consultancy. We've done work for large brands you're likely familiar with, like Mr. Beast, Anthropic, OpenAI, and a few others.
In plain English: I help people build systems that generate leads, close deals, and scale businesses, mostly using new AI models like Claude. I also make videos about how to do all of that here on YouTube.
It hasn't always been this way. My family immigrated from a Soviet bloc country (People's Republic of Bulgaria) in the 90s. They worked extremely hard, and we were broke for a very long time. I grew up wishing for more security, stability, and freedom over my own life.
I don't have a programming degree, and never took formal education for IT or workflows. I learned it all myself from YouTube videos like you're watching now.
As for my path: I started my first business at 19 in college. We threw events (mostly parties) at campus bars, and charged people for entry.
That failed to provide me enough money to pay my bills, so at 21, I started another business, a door-to-door marketing agency.
From there, every year, I would start several companies, over 10 in total. I did this in a variety of industries, like e-commerce, photography, videography, SaaS, credit repair, etc. Each grew slightly more profitable, until, at 25, I would start 1SecondCopy, a content writing company. A friend and I eventually scaled that to over $90,000/m. It was my first taste of financial independence, and the reason I'm here today.
Since starting my journey, I've grown a fair bit of capital. To diversify my income, at 30, I began investing in other businesses and advising companies on how to grow in the AI era. These include SaaS businesses, like Clairvo, agencies like Dental Connect, and more.
Collectively, the businesses that I own outright or are a part of generate over $10 million per year. This returns far more than the 5-10% you would get in the stock market, but also requires a lot of my active time. There's a tradeoff there, but I greatly prefer active investing, where I have control over the entities I'm a part of.

Summary ⤵️
We built a SaaS with Claude Code and AI agents that just hit $1 million/yr ARR called Clairvo!
Clairvo helps you improve your "pickup rates" (TLDR: the portion of people that pick up your calls) using neat, Claude Code-generated techniques like algorithmic predictive pacing, local number rotations, etc.
In this video, I guide you through how to do the same thing for yourself. it's actually fairly easy, assuming you use Claude to enumerate over the space of all possible opportunities!

Summary ⤵️
Turns out you can build extremely high-end, sleek websites using two things: a skill by Leon Lin (https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill) + a video generator called Kling (which I'm using on Higgsfield) + Nano Banana Pro to generate images to feed into the video and so on. A bit frustrated that people are making it out to be more complicated than that, but that's basically it. Super straightforward and simple. Enjoy!

Why watch?
If this is your first view—hi, I’m Nick! TLDR: I spent six years building automated businesses with Make.com (most notably 1SecondCopy, a content company that hit 7 figures). Today a lot of people talk about automation, but I’ve noticed that very few have practical, real world success making money with it. So this channel is me chiming in and showing you what *real* systems that make *real* revenue look like.
Hopefully I can help you improve your business, and in doing so, the rest of your life 🙏

Summary ⤵️
Autoresearch is here. AGI, self-improving models, RSI, whatever you want to call it—you can now build in autonomous agents that experiment, iterate, and improve without you.
Andrej Karpathy is the one who created the repo, but the idea goes back many generations. And finally, you have the ability to download and integrate this in Claude Code in just a few minutes using AI agents.

Claude just released Claude Channels, meaning the vast majority of OpenClaw functionality is now encapsulated within Claude Code itself. In addition to their Claude dispatch drop a few days ago, this marks an obvious push to take over OpenClaw.
In this video, I show you what it is, how it works, and how to set it up in 5-10 minutes!

WHY ME?
If this is your first watch—hi, I’m Nick! TLDR: I spent five years building automated businesses with Make.com (most notably 1SecondCopy, a content company that hit 7 figures). Today a lot of people talk about automation, but I’ve noticed that very few have practical, real world success making money with it. So this channel is me chiming in and showing you what *real* systems that make *real* revenue look like!
Hopefully I can help you improve your business, and in doing so, the rest of your life :-)

SUMMARY ⤵️
I use Regular Expressions all the time in Make.com, and (if I'm honest) they're a lot simpler than most people think. What follows is my own personal workflow. I made this to show you guys that you don't really need to know a lot about regular expression patterns and/or memorize large strings of tokens in order to make this work—there are really just a handful that are important.

➡️ If this is your first video: I'm Nick Saraev. I run LeftClick, an AI growth agency. We've done work for large brands you're likely familiar with, like Mr. Beast, Anthropic, OpenAI, and a few others.
Uploaded 20-02-26
In plain English: I help people build systems that generate leads, close deals, and scale businesses, mostly using new AI models like Claude. I also make videos about how to do all of that here on YouTube.
It hasn't always been this way. My family immigrated from a Soviet bloc country (People's Republic of Bulgaria) in the 90s. They worked extremely hard, and we were broke for a very long time. I grew up wishing for more security, stability, and freedom over my own life.
I don't have a programming degree, and never took formal education for IT or workflows. I learned it all myself from YouTube videos like you're watching now.
As for my path: I started my first business at 19 in college. We threw events (mostly parties) at campus bars, and charged people for entry.
That failed to provide me enough money to pay my bills, so at 21, I started another business, a door-to-door marketing agency.
From there, every year, I would start several companies, over 10 in total. I did this in a variety of industries, like e-commerce, photography, videography, SaaS, credit repair, etc. Each grew slightly more profitable, until, at 25, I would start 1SecondCopy, a content writing company. A friend and I eventually scaled that to over $90,000/m. It was my first taste of financial independence, and the reason I'm here today.
Since starting my journey, I've grown a fair bit of capital. To diversify my income, at 30, I began investing in other businesses and advising companies on how to grow in the AI era. These include SaaS businesses, like Clairvo, agencies like Dental Connect, and more.
Collectively, the businesses that I own outright or are a part of generate over $10 million per year. This returns far more than the 5-10% you would get in the stock market, but also requires a lot of my active time. There's a tradeoff there, but I greatly prefer active investing, where I have control over the entities I'm a part of.
It wasn't easy to get here. But I did in the end! For anyone on their own entrepreneurial journey: I wish you luck, happiness, and perseverance. You can make it!
Antigravity's agents feature is fantastic and with the right touch Gemini 3.1 Pro turns that on overdrive. Here's how to use both of these—Gemini 3.1 Pro and AntiGravity—to one-shot most website designs using a simple website prompt.
