AI Automation Tool for Side Projects
Zo is a computer. That means it can do... computer things. People are building side projects, business tools, monitoring services, and creative workflows – all running on their personal server.
"I started digging into it more and it's actually insane the capabilities. I'm going to spend the holidays playing with a personal server build on their platform."
Business Automations
A Polish web3 enthusiast uses Zo to manage Pokemon and clothing sales on Vinted. The AI helps with:
- Listing management
- Price monitoring
- Customer communication
- Inventory tracking
This is the kind of niche business automation that no SaaS product would build – but Zo can, because you describe it and the AI figures it out.
DevOps and Monitoring
A DevOps engineer in the UK quickly built two projects on Zo:
- An uptime monitoring service – checks sites and alerts when they go down
- A web form automation agent – automatically scans sites and submits forms
Both hosted entirely on Zo. No separate infrastructure to manage.
Personal Finance
Many users are using Zo to analyze personal finances – and even send automated updates over email or text.
Connect your data, build custom analyses, get alerts when something needs attention. We're adding support for multiple phone numbers soon, so your Zo can send updates to family members or business partners too.
Creative Tools
An architect in Tunisia created a workflow that combines GPT 4.5, Gemini 3 Pro, and Nano Banana (all inside Zo) to create beautiful renderings of architectural designs.
Zo includes multiple AI models. Chain them together for workflows that leverage each model's strengths.
Games and Fun
A biology graduate student at Johns Hopkins is creating an online version of a card game they play in his hometown. Lab work by day, game development by night.
Zo is a computer. Computers can run games. Build and host one yourself.
Downloads Organization
A founder in SF syncs his laptop's Downloads folder with Zo – and asks Zo to organize it. Files automatically get sorted, renamed, and filed where they belong.
This is the kind of automation that feels like it should exist but doesn't. Until you build it yourself.
Shopping Assistance
A user in Baltimore built a shopping assistant that helps with research and price comparison. Point it at something you want to buy, and it does the legwork.
The Cyberpunk Ethos
"I came in wanting the Cofounder functionality but Zo tickles my cyberpunk ethos more."
"Zo rocks by the way. Anyone who has ever been slightly curious about running a home lab, it's a great cloud VM that comes with all sorts of handy automations."
"Strength is that you can optimize yourself with it – Zo Computer has the flexibility to go in any direction, and it's up to us to be that driving force and optimize forward."
What People Are Saying
"Been using it for the past week now… I LOVE IT! I've built so much already with it even up until this morning. Amazing stuff."
"Wow this is so cool. Almost overwhelming how much you can do."
"Zo is probably the single most magical experience I've had using a computer in my adult life."
"Conceptually, it's one of the coolest products I've come across."
