Hermes just got 10x more powerful!

Full transcript

Hermes agent just got 10 times more powerful. I'm going to show you exactly how. So you need to boot up Hermes cloud. And this means that you can actually set up Hermes cloud and then it can run 24 7 on basically a separate VPS using Hermes.

Now, if you're not familiar with this, you can get this via Hermes cloud. It's pretty easy to set up. It's a brand new update. I call it the 60 second employee because essentially you can set this up in 60 and you could put Hermes in the cloud.

So it's an Amazon 24 7 agent. Does it still, it doesn't switch anything. So you have to do it for you. And that's just update number one.

There's a lot more to show you today, but basically with this new update, you want to use portal, which has over 200 models, some of them free, then you can plug that into a cloud agent takes like two minutes set up, and then that runs across every single channel, or you can plug it into your agent operated system. We need powerful stuff. It can just be there. I mean, you need to get into it, setting a kit, sketching, if it's update from Hermes right here, super powerful stuff.

Now, what we also have is a new outreach generation tool. So what we've done here is we've basically taken Hunter's API, which is an API that can, we can use for lead generation. We can type in whatever type of leads we're trying to find. You generate a leads over here and actually, and literally it's a task.

We'll get the email address over here, what website that belongs to, and it will hide automatically the websites that are too big to apply to us. Then what it does from here is it actually writes the campaign. So if we go to the campaigns tab over here, we can tell it what we're trying to write about, what we're trying to create content around. And then it just go up and start building out the campaign.

So right. Before you add it in yourself, you have to declare that you haven't done it and add an answer to that campaign and send the email. And we can manage the email automatically. We've our sandbox and inbox that's connected to our Google workspace API so that we can have Hermes agent reading our emails and sending out outreach emails and generating leads for us 24 seven as well.

So just to recap, we have Hermes cloud. I usually now have a whole page as well. Now we have this system here. Hermes Oracle.

Now what this does is it automatically refreshes every 24 hours and it pulls in the latest trending news from my industry. We can change this to whatever industry you're in. If you're installing the HLS link in the comments description, if you want to get my system for doing this and basically this whole system here pulls in the latest trending news from Twitter, it gives us a breakdown of it's category is about the original link to the post. And it actually gives us an angle that we can take on the content.

So it recommends an angle based on my specific business. And then from there, we can actually draft the social media content. We can publish that directly to WordPress. This is running 24 seven.

We can see previous days updates as well. So we can look back at previous days. And actually this trains our agent on what's going on. And it reads through like that.

So they ask you the content ideas. They ask you the views and stuff like that. It knows everything that's happening in real time, far more than any other agent. If you get Claude to do this just by default, it will not find the latest news.

But because Hermes is connected to Twitter and Grok as an OAuth login, you can pull in the latest news automatically and find what's trending. You can see an example right here of the original post. You can see it popping off right there. Really exciting.

But I didn't even know about that, but I can find out the latest news instantly. And it's like the creme de la creme of the latest trending news that just dropped. Then what we have, for example, is Hermes Apollo. Now Hermes Apollo, we can control with our voice.

We could speak to the client. So it literally listens to everything I say. And then you can ask it for a briefing. We can put it in warm mode.

It can respond to us directly. We can see a transcript of everything we talk to us. So it was teaching me Italian the other day. It was actually teaching me some phrases in Italian.

And then we can see everything that we've built with it as well. So it's a fully powered AI voice agent that's ready to go at any time. It can build beautiful websites. It could create games for us.

It could, for example, build out apps and dashboards for us. And it literally is going to talk to it. And so you can see here there are the apps. We can pull it in full screen.

It can run in the background. And we can even assign a wake word to it so that it wakes up and talks to us whenever we need to. So just to recap, we have Hermes Cloud. We have Hermes Apollo, the voice agent.

We have Hermes Oracle. We have Hermes Astros as well. Then what Hermes Astros does is really interesting. Is it pulls you, uh, based on my watch list and then I go into AI.

It's a pair of Kia, it's a Sony competitors. It analyzes their content and then it tells me what I could create content around in a similar way. So it actually gives me ideas automatically for my content based on what's trending and it organizes it by score. So it gives you a score.

It finds me the new outliers, the new trending topics that I could create content around. And then quickly I can create that content if we go for it. And I've actually created seven videos when I choose topics we see because it's very interesting to find new topics to create content around. And then over here is a memory galaxy.

So when we're using tools, like for example, Hermes Astros, it's finding the latest news here. So you can see the, the radar. It pulls in that news and it logs it to my obsidian gallery. Now, why is that important?

Because basically this is automatically updating all of our agents at the same time. It's what's across all of our agents. It has busy agencies, has other agencies that are connected to the system, automatically understand what's going on. This is basically a second brain.

It's my brain plugged into a system that is visualized across a galaxy. All of our agents inside the agent operating system can work from it. And we've got all of these running, as you can see right here in the background. Now we also have over here, a video agent.

And so Hermes can basically create video agents around whatever you want. So do type A, but sound like A, but are you going? Just as a matter of fact, so I could basically just learn from the trending news. We can write the script, research it, find the latest news on that particular topic.

And it will search it for us, analyze that topic, write the scripts and just work in the background. And it can actually create fully edited, animated videos with a voiceover, um, that's running 24 seven for us. Here's an example of a video we made earlier using the system. Super easy to set up, super easy to do.

And it's fully edited and beautifully created, right? It can create fully animated videos and it's Hermes agent, but it's basically designed and programmed the app to create video agents for us. The way that we've done this is we've basically linked HeyGenCLI to Glock to create a video with Hermes agent. And Hermes agent doesn't need to know the news to write the script.

And it can submit it as a fully edited video using an open source project called Remotion. And this is all ready to go inside one workflow. So as complicated as that sounds, that's all put together so that we can just prompt it whenever we need to inside the director section here, pretty amazing. So these are some of the powerful pipelines we've got.

Also got a section here where you can go from idea to app generation via two clicks. So not only do this for people who have an idea, but it goes into the capture section, then we have the human gate where we approve or deny each of these videos, or we can delete these ideas as well, not videos, sorry, these apps. And then it can go into the implementation field and then we can ship and complete it. And if we want to see everything that we've built previously, we can go to the gallery and just have a look and see what we've done, which is pretty And if you want to educate, well, how do you call the ideas?

Cause that sounds like hard work too. It actually is, it'd say, oh, there's a new idea for an app. And what this will do is use a group chat where our AI agents brainstorm together new ideas. So you can see Claude came up with an idea and then Hermes bounced off that as well, so you can see, so it's like, oh, that's pretty cool.

Let's go with that. And then it, each of our agents jumps in and comes up with new ideas. Now, when something actually useful comes out of this full conversation, where all of our agents are just chatting to each other, and what will happen is that they get saved to our pipeline. So the ideas from this group chat will actually get plugged into our pipeline.

And then we can come up with ideas automatically with a bunch of different agents talking to each other. So between the Hermes idea to implementation pipeline for new apps, the group chat, where we can have Hermes discussing and orchestrating other agents, we've got Hayes Cloud, which runs 20% of the cloud. We've got Hermes Apollo, the business agent, and there's AirBnB, which produces the AXDs, and there's Astros, which produces our competitors, plus the memory system that brings this all together and brings all of our agents up to speed automatically. We have an extremely powerful system.

This is 10 times more powerful than if you went into the terminal and you were just like, Hermes, do this for me. Right. It just, it literally doesn't have that sort of information. It's not going to be as useful.

And so that's what I'd recommend for you too.
