How An Accident Turned Into A Product We’re Launching Today

A couple of months ago, we were building an AI-powered crypto wallet. And we were running into the same problem over and over again.

Every new feature we wanted to add to the wallet took our dev team at least four weeks to deliver. They make it, we break it, then come the revisions, break it again, and so on.

Our CTO had had enough of this loop and, while he was on vacation, created the first prototype of Tooler, an AI agent that builds MCPs. We looked at it and tried poking it with a couple of APIs. Tooler delivered the MCPs, helped us secure a few grants for our crypto wallet, and we found out that we can use Tooler to build an entirely separate business.

That’s how Runstack was born.

Runstack is an AI platform that helps you create AI agents and charge them with everyday tasks.

It creates tasks in ClickUp and sorts them by priority based on the transcript from your morning call.

It crunches the numbers in your Google Spreadsheet based on how you prompt it and does a full financial report.

It schedules meetings and sends emails to everyone who needs to be in them
Runstack automates the boring stuff, while you focus on the big picture.
Most people use AI tools in a fragmented way, or the tools they use require a coding background. Runstack provides a single conversational interface to connect, automate, and run all aspects of a business.

So, if you’re using any of these apps in your daily job:

  • Clickup
  • Gmail
  • Google Calendar
  • Google Contacts
  • Google Workspace
  • Dexscreener
  • Transcripts from meetings
  • RSS Feeds
  • Calculations

Reach out to me.

I’ll personally help you set up Runstack to demonstrate how it can make your work easier. Send me a message on Telegram (@savevski) or on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/stefan-savevski/)

Or, if you have workflows that are redundant, repetitive, and boring that use the same couple of tools, drop me a message, and we’ll add those plugins to make your life easier.

Runstack goes live on Dec 15th, but you can request early access here: https://www.runstack.ai/early-signup

    It’s funny how the 'boring stuff' (scheduling, sorting tickets, emails) is actually what kills productivity the most. Automating the high-level creative work is flashy, but automating the mundane ops is where the ROI lives. This looks super promising.

      Thank you @Playbook! You're absolutely right. I come from a marketing background and because of all those menial tasks, I always started my most important work after lunch after all the catchups, meetings, messages and emails. With Runstack, I save about 4 hours of boring work a day. Would love to show you how it works, feel free to ping me if you'd like to see a demo!

    Interesting origin story. It’s always telling when an internal tool ends up solving a broader problem. The shift from fixing bottlenecks in one product to building a platform around those solutions feels like a logical move. Curious to see how well it handles real-world workflows across different teams once people start using it.

    1. 1

      Hey @EllaReid_24, we've been using it internally for our workflows, but we're looking for early beta testers who would use it in real-world workflows, exactly as you mentioned. I'd love to share early access with you and see how we can help you out and make your life easier!

    Huge congrats, Stefan Runstack looks like one of those rare “accidental” innovations that ends up becoming 10× bigger than the original idea.

    If you want to accelerate early adoption once you launch, I can help get Runstack in front of a much wider audience through high-authority tech publications like Digital Trends, USA Today, or even a 400+ outlet PR blast across Yahoo Finance, MarketWatch, and Business Insider style networks.

    Given how strong the use cases are (automation + AI agents + everyday tools), the right placement could bring a huge wave of early users.

    If you’re open to it, I can share what type of coverage would give you the biggest lift.

    1. 1

      Hey @ThePRArchitect would love to know more! We already have press releases on Yahoo Finance, Bloomberg, and a couple of others, but we're willing to hear some traction that you've achieved and explore how that would work for us.

      1. 1

        For Runstack specifically, I can get you placed on USA Today, Digital Trends and Tech Times all three have strong tech editorial foundations and perform really well for AI + automation stories. They’re also great for credibility when you’re pushing early adoption or investor-facing updates. If you want I can share recent examples + the exact angle I’d use for Runstack so you can see how it would position your launch stronger than a standard PR.

    Love this origin story. Turning a bottleneck in your own product into a standalone platform is exactly how the best tools are born. Tooler → Runstack feels like a natural evolution, and the “single conversational interface” angle is a real need for teams drowning in scattered apps. Excited to see how it performs once more workflows plug in.

      Thank you @Mofrum! And you're 100% right. We're looking for the workflows that people use most on a daily basis, and we're curious to hear from you as well. I'd love to hear from you and give you early access and help you automate your day!

    A surprising accident sparked innovation, transforming an unexpected idea into a polished product launching today.

      The best things happen by accident @alanjordan13! This is something we're really bullish on. Feel free to ping me if you want early access, I'd like to help you take control over your day!

  6. 2

    Really impressive! Love how a simple prototype turned into a full AI platform that actually streamlines everyday work.

      Thank you @LiamGrey! Would love to give you early access if you're interested!

    What automation do you do with the Dexscreener??

    1. 1

      Hey @jozh, we've done a bunch of things:

      • You can set up price trackers for specific coins and get emails for them
      • You can set up automated research based on the top-performing coins on a day, put that in a Google Doc, and share that with your team

      and a bunch of other things. You can check out all of the things you can do here:

    This is really interesting, Stefan. how it handles ambiguous instructions or multi-step tasks across tools like ClickUp and Google Sheets.

    1. 1

      Thakn you @Sonu_Gos! We'd love to give you early access and see how it fits in your workflow!

    @Stefan, this is exactly the kind of founder-led build story that performs insanely well on Reddit ,real pain, real prototype, real traction. I specialize in Reddit growth for AI and automation products, and launches like Runstack usually blow up when positioned around the ‘internal bottleneck → full platform’ narrative. If you’re open to it, I can show you how to turn Reddit into a consistent early-user acquisition channel for your launch.

  12. 1

    Really cool story Stefan. Amazing how often the best direction shows up when you’re not even looking for it. Cheering you on with the launch.

    Inspiring story! Turning an unexpected accident into a product demonstrates creativity, resilience, and innovative thinking brilliantly.

    Is this any different from building automation in n8n?
