The morning briefings were running. The research swarm was doing its thing. And somewhere between reading the daily brief and going about my day, I started wondering: what else can this thing do?

So I asked. “Give me some ideas on what you can help me with.” The suggestions I got back were mostly work-related — drafting and sending emails, creating documents and spreadsheets. Great ideas. Just not what I was looking for.

Then it hit me: I was still paying for web hosting on GoDaddy. Two websites — one a memorable personal site I’d like to keep, and one a friend’s business site. Both written years ago in simple HTML. Both costing me money every month. It would be great if I could stop paying for hosting and put that money toward my API tokens instead. 😂

So I asked my home AI.

It came back with two options: Cloudflare Pages or Railway. It recommended Cloudflare based on my traffic pattern. It also walked me through the DNS question — whether to keep it on GoDaddy or migrate to Cloudflare. Once I knew what I wanted, it gave me step-by-step instructions, troubleshot a few hiccups along the way, and even redesigned my friend’s business webpage — while I was sitting at my son’s swim meet.

Worth noting
I did have to go home to enter the Cloudflare API key. Not the AI’s fault — I just hadn’t set up remote access from my phone to the Mac Mini yet.

A few hours later, both sites were up and running on Cloudflare Pages. Then I asked my home AI how to cancel the GoDaddy hosting account. Turns out that’s buried in menus on purpose. Got there eventually. Money saved. 💸
