AI-Run Business Architecture — a strategic blueprint with code scaffolds. a strategic blueprint with code scaffolds.

A multi-document strategic blueprint for zero-employee, AI-run businesses scaling to $1M+ ARR with minimal human intervention. Architectural specs, agent comparisons, revenue projections across three scenarios, an implementation playbook, security framework, and reference code scaffolds.

The thesis. Heartbeat pattern — agents wake every 30 minutes (or on cron) to read business metrics, decide and execute autonomously. Hybrid 3–4 product launch is the fastest documented path to $1M ARR (12 months vs. 18–24). Industry-specific monetisation templates (legal, healthcare, real estate, e-commerce) with concrete pricing.

Companion projects (Paperclip AI, Group-Ops, Marketing Lab) implement different layers of the blueprint — the document is the connective tissue.
