DR. LICATO'S MAILING LIST

What I learn building with agentic AI tools.

I build things with agentic AI tools and I write down what I learn, including what they really cost once you are past the free tier and where they break. It is for people building things themselves rather than people evaluating vendors.

What you get

Sent when there is something worth sending.

There is no schedule and no weekly filler. I write when I have run something far enough to say what it does, what it costs and where it fell over.

  • What a tool actually costs after the free tier ends, with the date I checked.
  • Where it breaks, and whether one person can diagnose that alone at eleven at night.
  • What happens to your work if the tool dies or the company is bought.
  • The things that make it easy to hurt yourself, which the docs rarely lead with.
Free either way

The skills are not behind this form.

I write agent skills for my own work and give them away. They install in one line into whichever agent you already use, and you never have to give me an email address to get one. Whatever is finished is at actualization.ai/skills.

One thing I ask

Reply and tell me what you are building.

I read every reply myself, and what readers tell me decides what I look into next. That is the whole reason this list exists rather than a feed.
