What does it really mean to build AI agents in the real world, not just as demos, but as tools that save time, surface insight, and change how people work?

In this episode of PROMPTED: Builder Stories, Kyle sits down with Jason Burke, founder of AllStage and an experienced product builder and investor, to unpack how he thinks about AI agents and how he actually builds them. Jason shares how his background in engineering, product management, and early-stage investing shaped his approach to designing agent driven workflows that support founders, investors, and everyday life.

This conversation goes beyond theory. Jason walks through live examples of the agents he has built, including an AllStage business workflow agent that helps analyze investment opportunities, as well as personal productivity agents he created to solve real problems in his own life. Along the way, he breaks down what makes a workflow “agent ready,” where agents add the most value today, and why trust, risk, and human judgment still matter.

You will hear practical guidance on how to start building agents, why experimenting with personal use cases is often the best entry point, and how AI is lowering the barrier for anyone to become a builder. If you are curious about using AI agents to work smarter, think more clearly, or build something meaningful, this episode offers a grounded and inspiring look at what is possible right now.
