AI marketing agent
An AI marketing agent that does the work, inside limits you approve
John, your Venturehand agent, is an AI marketing agent for SaaS founders. Every day on a paid plan he looks at where your marketing stands, picks the next useful move — a segment map, a channel plan, a post, a follow-up — drafts it, prices it in credits, and puts it in front of you. You approve it, skip it, or approve a batch at a total you see first. Nothing is published, sent or charged until you do.
What this page does not claim
That John will grow your revenue. Venturehand is new, and there is no outcome data we would put on a page yet. What follows is how the product behaves today — every line of it checkable in the app, none of it a result.
What an AI agent for marketing actually is
An AI marketing agent is software that decides the next marketing move and prepares it, instead of waiting for a prompt. John is Venturehand's: he maps your customers, prepares the next move, and nothing is published, sent or charged outside an approval you gave.
Three kinds of software get sold under this name. They are not the same thing, and the difference decides whether one fits you.
An AI assistant
Waits for a prompt. You decide what to make, it makes it. Useful when you already know what you want — which, for most founders shipping alone, is the part that is missing.
Marketing automation
Runs rules you wrote: send this when that happens. Reliable, and it never decides anything new.
An AI marketing agent
Decides the next move itself, then prepares it. The real question inside this category is what happens after it decides: whether it acts with no limits from you, or only inside an approval you gave. John works inside your approval — one move at a time, or a mandate you can revoke.
What John does, in order
The same loop on every run, and you can read it back afterwards in John's Log.
- 01
He reads your product and where you stand
Your product page, your segment map, your channel plan, what you have posted, and who is in your pipeline. His first task needs only the first of those: from your product page he maps who your customers are. You can try that map free, without an account, in the ICP generator.
- 02
He picks the next move
A priority-ordered set of rules decides what matters now — a post that is due, a segment map with no channel plan behind it, a plan that has gone stale after 30 days, a contact who has gone quiet. One move at a time, in the order a careful marketer would take them.
- 03
He drafts it and prices it
The draft arrives as a card with the reason it matters now and its cost in credits. Drafting is free; credits move only if you approve.
- 04
You decide
Approve, skip, or approve every card at once after seeing the total. A card you leave alone expires after 7 days, and silence is not counted as a no.
- 05
You ship it
Approved posts wait in Studio for you to publish or schedule; outreach drafts are yours to send. Approving is a decision, not a send button John presses for you.
- 06
He learns from what you skip
Skip a kind of suggestion repeatedly and he backs off it for longer each time. Running daily is the default on paid plans; you can drop him to twice a week, run him by hand, or pause him.
The approval contract, in terms you can check
Each line describes what the product does today.
Nothing is published, sent or charged before you say yes
Drafting is free. Credits move when you approve a card, and approving saves the work to your workspace — publishing a post and sending an email stay with you.
You see the cost first, including for a batch
Every card carries its price in credits. Approving several at once shows the total before anything is charged.
Approved work that fails is refunded
If a card you approve from John's inbox fails to complete, its credits come back.
Work below his bar never reaches you
A weak draft gets one more attempt, then John bins it and says so in the morning brief. No credit is touched.
Receipts, not claims
John's Log lists every task, its stage, what it cost, and a link to the work it produced.
Your own accounts
Posts publish through your own LinkedIn account, connected by OAuth, with tokens encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM).
No cut of your revenue or your ad spend
A flat plan and one shared credit pool. Ad spend is billed by the ad platform, to your account.
What he works on
Six skills that share one picture of your product, so a post knows which segment it is for.
- Bullseye
Your customer segments and what each one needs to hear, with your competitors researched beside them. The first task: John proposes the map, and a refresh when it goes stale.
- Beacon
Where to show up for each segment, and in what order.
- Studio
Posts grounded in your product. Approved drafts wait in Studio for you to publish or schedule.
- Launchframe
A launch video from your product URL, in three aspect ratios. Free, and the generator needs no account.
- Outreach
First-touch and follow-up drafts. You send them from your own inbox.
- Pipeline
A CRM for the people you are talking to. John drafts the follow-up when a conversation goes quiet.
When an AI marketing agent is the wrong tool
Three cases where you should buy something else.
You already know what to post, and where
A scheduler and a chat model are cheaper. An agent’s main value is deciding what to do next, and that is wasted on someone who has already decided.
You want the whole company run for you
Some products build and operate an entire business on your behalf, acting on a standing approval rather than asking each time. That is a different bet from John’s, with real advantages, and we wrote up the difference as fairly as we could: an approval-first agent against a fully autonomous AI co-founder.
You need someone to own paid media
John drafts, organises and follows up. He does not run your ad budget, and a specialist or an agency will do that job better.
What it costs
One credit pool for every job. Higher plans add credits, not a different John.
Free — 10 credits a month, no card. No John: you use the tools directly. The free tools, the customer map among them, need no account at all.
- Starter$29.99 a month · 50 credits · John daily
- Growth$79.99 a month · 150 credits · John daily
- Scale$129.99 a month · 250 credits · John daily
- Pro$249.99 a month · 500 credits · John daily
Questions about AI marketing agents
What is an AI marketing agent?
Software that decides the next marketing move and prepares it, rather than waiting for you to ask. The useful distinction inside the category is what it does after deciding: act with no limits from you, or only inside an approval you gave. John, Venturehand's agent, works inside your approval: one move at a time, or a mandate you can revoke.
Is an AI agent for marketing better than marketing automation?
They do different jobs. Automation runs rules you wrote and is the right tool when you already know the rule. An agent decides what to do next, which is the part most solo founders are missing. If you already know what to post and when, automation and a scheduler are cheaper.
Will John post or send anything without asking?
Not outside an approval you gave. In Together, every move waits on a card until you approve it, and approved posts wait in Studio for you to publish or schedule. In Solo mode he works inside a mandate you set, with a ceiling, a cost and an expiry, and you can revoke it at any time.
Can an AI marketing agent replace a CMO?
Part of the job. John does the part that stalls most solo founders: deciding the next move and preparing it, every day. He does not replace judgement about your market that only you have, and he will not tell you something works before there is evidence that it does.
How much does it cost?
Free is 10 credits a month with no card, and the free tools, the customer map among them, need no account at all. John runs daily on every paid plan, from $29.99 a month for 50 credits. Credits are charged when you approve work, not when John drafts it.
What happens when John's work is not good enough?
He gives a weak draft one more attempt, then bins it rather than show it to you, and the morning brief says he did. Binned work costs nothing.
Does Venturehand take a cut of revenue or ad spend?
No. Plans are flat and every job draws on one credit pool. Any ad spend is billed by the ad platform directly to your account.
See his first task on your own product
Paste your product URL and you get your customer map — three to five segments, each with the evidence from your own page, free and with no account — and can decide from there whether you want John on the rest. The reasoning behind the approval gate is in why an AI agent should ask before it ships.
