Let Your AI Agent Run Your Online Business

Your own AI agent can now run a VentiMap company for you. Copy one prompt, paste it into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw or Hermes, and the agent connects itself to your VentiMap account. From then on you tell it what you want in plain words, and it starts the company, builds it, and runs the outreach, ads and checkout through VentiMap.

I'm VentiMap's founder. This is how it works today, step by step.

How do I connect my AI agent to VentiMap?

• Open the agents page and press Copy for your agent. If you are not signed in, you sign in first and come straight back.
• Paste the prompt into your agent. It adds VentiMap as a remote MCP server, keeps the key in private config, and checks the connection by listing your companies.
• Restart the agent if it asks you to, so it loads the new tools. That is the whole setup.

When I tested this on October 26, 2026 with a fresh copy of Codex that had never seen VentiMap, it set itself up in about two minutes, and in a new session it used the VentiMap tools straight away.

MCP is a standard way for an AI agent to use another service's tools. VentiMap's server is at https://api.ventimap.com/agent/mcp, and the by-hand setup for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and any other MCP client is folded under Set it up by hand on the agents page.

What can my agent do on VentiMap?

The agent works on the same companies you see in the app, with the same Manager and the same Work Map.

• Start a company from your idea, or ask VentiMap to pick one. It reads you the research report and the Brief, revises the Brief with you and approves it when you say yes.
• Build it. The agent starts the build and can follow every step of the Work Map, including which model works on each step.
• Change the site. It edits and publishes your website, or asks the Manager for a change in plain words, such as "set the price to 12".
• Find customers. It turns Auto outreach on, reads and rewrites an outreach email, and sends a draft that is waiting.
• Run ads. It turns Reddit ads on or off at a daily amount up to the one you saved.
• Keep you posted. It reads how each company is doing, the inbox, sales and visits, and tells you what changed and what needs you.
• Remember. It reads what VentiMap knows about your company and saves the facts you ask it to keep.

What does VentiMap add to my agent?

Your agent brings the thinking. VentiMap brings the parts of a real business: a hosted website, a company inbox, email outreach with unsubscribe handling and follow-up limits, managed Reddit ads, checkout through Stripe and payouts to you. And the company lives on VentiMap's servers, so once Auto outreach is on it keeps working after you close the chat.

Does the money stay with me?

Yes. Paying or topping up Credits, setting up payouts, buying a domain, deleting anything, changing account, billing or member settings, and raising the ads daily amount above its limit stay with you. VentiMap's servers enforce this whatever the agent tries. When the agent reaches one of these steps, it shows you a ventimap.com link and you finish it there. Every change it makes appears in your Manager chat as a "Done by your agent" line, with how to undo it where an undo exists.

If you want to approve each step first, you can set the connection to ask first. The full list of guardrails is in my post on whether it is safe to let an AI agent run your business.

What does it cost?

There is no separate agent price. Your agent spends the same Credits as the same action in the app, at $1 a Credit. Starting your first company is free, with a research report, a plan and a first page; building takes a plan. Plans are monthly and start at $20 a month with $20 of Credits included.
