1. The Figma-to-HTML Miracle Worker
Transforming Design into Code
One of the most impressive artificial intelligence agents I’ve encountered is a state-of-the-art Figma-to-HTML generation tool.
This AI marvel was developed for a company that creates newsletters for some of the world’s biggest brands.
The agent’s primary function is to generate HTML files directly from Figma design mockups.
It’s a process that used to be incredibly time-consuming, but this AI has streamlined it dramatically.
To use the agent, you simply provide it with the necessary assets and the Figma mockup.
From there, it works its magic using a complex function that leverages multiple API calls to OpenAI under the hood.
The result?
A newsletter that looks remarkably similar to the target design mockup.
The Power of Iteration
You might wonder why we use an agent for this task when it essentially employs one function to provide an HTML file.
The answer lies in the iterative nature of design work.
Often, after generating the initial HTML, developers need to make adjustments based on client feedback.
This is where our artificial intelligence agent truly shines.
Instead of receiving a final HTML file that would require manual adjustments, you can instruct the agent to make specific changes.
For example, I watched as my colleague Nick entered instructions to align certain sections better.
The agent then proceeded to make these adjustments according to the feedback, resulting in an HTML output that closely resembled the design mockup.
It’s truly amazing to witness.
Key Takeaway
A crucial lesson from this project is the importance of flexibility in artificial intelligence agents.
They must be equipped with tools that allow them to adapt based on feedback.
This flexibility is what sets truly useful AI agents apart from simple automation tools.
For those new to my channel, it’s worth noting that all the agents I discuss are developed using my own agentic framework called Agency Swarm, available on GitHub.

2. The Unit Test Generation Maestro
Revolutionizing Software Development Workflows
The next project I want to highlight is a unit test generating agency developed for Mobiik, an IT consulting firm specializing in software development, data, AI, and cloud services.
This artificial intelligence agent addresses a common problem in software development: the time-consuming nature of generating unit tests.
While the process is relatively simple, it’s incredibly time-intensive and can’t be automated with basic tools due to the unique nature of each report.
Seamless Integration with Existing Systems
What makes this AI agent particularly impressive is its integration directly into the Azure DevOps environment that Mobiik’s developers use daily.
This seamless integration is crucial for adoption and efficiency.
The system operates using a board with different statuses, mirroring the company’s manual process.
When an item is moved to a specific column, it triggers certain tasks to be completed by the artificial intelligence agent.
The AI-Powered Workflow
Let me walk you through the process.
First, we have an issue – let’s say, developing tests for .MP3 files.
When we drop this task into the “Create Technical Report” column, the AI agent springs into action.
It searches and analyzes the code base, just as a human developer would.
Soon after, a comment appears with a revised user story and a generated technical report.
This report includes an introduction, code analysis with snippets, user story analysis, and a conclusion.
Next, we move to creating the test plan by dropping the item into the next column.
The beauty of this system is that you can adjust the generated stories and test plans before proceeding to unit test generation.
Finally, we drop the item into the unit test column.
The artificial intelligence agent creates a new branch in the Azure DevOps environment and generates a pull request with the unit tests for review.
Key Takeaway
The most important lesson from this project is the importance of integrating AI agents into the systems that clients already use daily.
This seamless integration ensures higher adoption rates and efficiency gains.
While the costs for generating user stories, test plans, and unit tests are relatively low, it’s important to note that this example is simplified.
In a real production environment, the complexity and volume of code would be much higher.
3. The Data Analytics Wizard
Unlocking Insights from Complex Datasets
The third artificial intelligence agent I want to showcase addresses a common challenge in data analytics.
We developed this AI for an online payment processing company dealing with an overwhelming number of tables and datasets.
Imagine trying to extract insights from not just 10 or 20 tables, but hundreds of them.
It’s a task that’s not only time-consuming but incredibly challenging for human analysts.
Simplifying Complex Queries
Using this AI agent is surprisingly straightforward.
You simply send it a query specifying what you’re looking for, including dates, specific metrics, and even aggregations.
I’ve seen this artificial intelligence agent perform queries for any metric you can imagine.
The best part?
The costs are minimal, usually just a few cents depending on the amount of context the agent needs to retrieve.
Future Potential
What excites me most about these data analytics use cases is their potential for expansion.
Once the artificial intelligence agent has access to all the data and datasets, we can move beyond simple querying.
The next step in this project would be enabling the agent to take actions based on its insights.
For example, it could detect fraudulent activity and automatically block suspicious user accounts.
Key Takeaway
Data sharing and analytics use cases are often my favorite starting points for implementing AI agents.
They’re relatively easy to implement and offer immense potential for growth and added functionality.
4. The Tare Sheet Virtuoso
Elevating Marketing Visualizations
The fourth artificial intelligence agent I want to highlight is a Tare Sheet Agent, developed for ESM, a marketing agency that helps brands run successful campaigns and visualize results.
In marketing, tare sheets are specialized PowerPoint presentations that show how ads will appear on different websites.
This AI agent streamlines the creation of these crucial visual aids.
How It Works
To use this artificial intelligence agent, we first upload the ad creatives and specify the websites where we want to preview them.
The agent then scrapes the websites and converts them into images using a Flash API.
I always recommend using third-party APIs when possible, as it simplifies deployment and management of the AI agent.
In this case, the Flash API is a perfect fit for our needs.
Once the websites are scraped, the agent replaces the existing ads with the new ad creatives and provides a downloadable link to the finished PowerPoint presentation.
The Magic Behind the Scenes
What makes this artificial intelligence agent particularly fascinating is its use of another custom AI model under the hood.
It employs YOLO (You Only Look Once), an object detection system, to identify and replace ad spaces on the scraped websites.
This combination of technologies allows for incredibly accurate ad placement in the tare sheets, saving marketers countless hours of manual work.
Key Takeaway
The main lesson from this project is the value of using pre-made solutions for tools whenever possible.
If there’s an existing API or model that can perform a specific task, it’s often more efficient to wrap it into a tool for your AI agent to use.
This approach saves on development efforts and can result in lower operational costs, as the agent runs on its own infrastructure without relying heavily on token usage.
5. The AMD Sheet Genius
Streamlining E-commerce Product Listings
The final artificial intelligence agent I want to showcase is an AMD sheet agent, created for a business managing multiple e-commerce brands.
This AI tackles the tedious task of filling out product sheets for marketplaces like Zalando.
The AI-Powered Process
To use this agent, we upload product information such as packaging materials and other details in CSV files.
We then provide the product name, and the artificial intelligence agent gets to work.
The AI fills out the AMD sheet using the information from the CSV files.
If it encounters any errors or missing information, it notifies the user, allowing for quick corrections and feedback.
Handling Complex Workflows
The real power of this artificial intelligence agent becomes apparent in the next stage of the process.
After submitting the completed AMD sheet to the retailer, they often return another sheet that needs to be filled out.
Our AI system is designed to handle this back-and-forth seamlessly.
The client can upload the new sheet from the retailer and activate another specialized agent to process this next flexible AMD sheet.
This ability to handle complex, multi-stage workflows sets our artificial intelligence agent apart from simpler automation tools.
Conclusion
