Paperclip + Hermes Agent Changed Everything!

Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-14

[00:00:00]So, today we are going to be using Paperclip with Hermes Agent. This is using something called Paperclip plus the adapter for Hermes Agent. Make sure that you have both set up if you want to use Hermes Agent with Paperclip. And once you've done it, you're going to see something like this inside the dashboard, right? As you can see. Now, what's pretty cool about this is, for example, you can have a full organization like this. And so, instead of just having one single agent, you can have a whole team of agents working together, right? And for example, we've got like a CEO agent here, and they're managing a chief marketing officer, who's managing a Facebook marketing specialist, with a Hermes engineer, and a Hermes tester right here. And you can see these agents actually message me, so they send me a message inside my inbox, as you can see right here. So, whenever a task is complete, like for example, this morning, we completed a task that we assigned to a Hermes tester, which is to find AI SEO keywords. They found a bunch of AI SEO keywords, like you can see, gave us a breakdown of the keywords, the competition, etc. for each keyword, and just automated in the background, right? So, we can have multiple agents. Now, this is very different from using just one single agent inside the chat here. So, instead of just having one agent working one by one, which is what you get inside Hermes Agent, you now get a whole team of agents working together, being way more productive, getting stuff done, and automate whatever you want, right? And so, you have a swarm of agents, not just one. And the cool thing about this is you can make your team way more productive, and you can build like an autonomous AI team, right? And so, the future really isn't like hiring more humans. I'd say it's building a company where AI agents do the work 24/7 and work together, right? Where you have multiple teams of agents working together. And I call this the Goldie method. This is a new paradigm for running autonomous AI agents. So, most people think about AI wrong. They use it like a calculator. They ask a question and get an answer and move on. That's the old way, right? The Goldy method is a completely new operating system for how you run AI agents in 2026. So, number one is the goal, right? So, inside Paperclip, you're going to set a mission, which you can do over here. So, you can set up a new goal. Like for me, for example, I've said, "Help grow the AI Profit Boardroom, my AI automation community." That is the goal that every single agent inside my team is going to work towards, right? Now, why do we do that? It's because we want the agents to know exactly what to do, when to do it, why they should focus on this, and what they're working towards. So, that is G for goal, right? And so, you define the mission, and you basically explain, "Okay, what's your business trying to achieve?" And AI agents need a why, not just a task, which is what you're giving them with the mission. Then you've got the org chart. So, you can see over here, this is the organization chart, right? And so, you can build out a really complex agent team if you want to. And you build your team, and not with humans, with AI agents. Every single role, every reporting line, every job description. CEO agent, CTO agent, marketing agent, SEO agent, support agent. All of them running 24/7, like you can see over here. So, we've got these different agents working in unison, and they don't all have to be Hermes agents. You could have one that's called code, one that's open core, however you want to run it, right? As you can see right here. By the way, if you have questions, feel free to post them and I'll answer them at the end of the session. And then, launch, right?

[00:03:20]You hit go. Your AI company starts working, agents wake up on a schedule called heartbeats. They check the tasks, do the work, and report back. And then you watch from a dashboard. So, you've got your dashboard over here, and you can see what they've worked on, what they've been doing, and what their recent activities and tasks, as you can see. And so, for example, 3 minutes ago, all of this keyword research was done, and then we can actually leave a comment and give more tasks here, right? So, that's the launch stage. And then, delegate. So, you assign work like a real CEO. You drop a task in the system, an agent picks it up, it gets done. No babysitting, no reminders, no follow-ups. How do you do that? So, what you do for that is you go to new issue here, you set up the issue. So, let's say for example, it's a site build and SEO strategy for the AI Profit Boardroom. You can add a description here if you want to. Then you're going to add an assignee, so I'm going to assign Hermes to this, right? Hermes agent has started, you can see it's now running, and we can just assign tasks to all of our AI agents, and they work in parallel together as a team. And they all know what the context is because you've given them the mission and you've already explained how to do it. So, that's a delegate section, right? To do that, you just go to new issue at the top and you set up a task here, and then your agents start running, as you can see. And you can see live updates as it goes through, which is pretty cool. From there, you're going to iterate. So, you review the results, you approve or redirect, you stay in control, but you're not doing the work. You are the board of directors and the agents are your staff. So, for example, if we go back to the work that was done by our AI agents, so if we go back to the dashboard here and we check out what this agent did with the process of keyword research here, you can approve it or you can give them more tasks, right? So, we can say, "Okay, can you go more specific on best AI agent community keywords?" And so, now this agent is going to do my AI SEO strategy for me using this process right here, right?

[00:05:14]And we've given it feedback, and now it's going to it's queued up to get that work done. It's going to do the first task soon, and then it's going to start working on this. So, you can see here that it's beginning to work on that task. And then you expand. So, you can scale from there. You can have more agents, you can have more goals, you can have more tools. The system grows with you. So, if we want to add more goals, we just go over here and we set up a new goal, right? If we want to expand and add more agents, we go down here and we set up a new agent, right? We can set up a new agent, could be Claude code, could be Hermes agent, open code, CodeX, Pi, Cursor, open Claude gateway, right?

[00:05:45]Seven different agents to choose from.

[00:05:47]So, that's basically it. And then, you don't manage your agents, you manage companies made of them. Right? That is the Goldy method. And once you see it, you really can't unsee it. This is a totally different paradigm for managing your agents. And so, the old belief is AI is a tool that you use. The Goldy method belief is AI is a workforce you manage. And that single mindset shift changes everything. That's what Paperclip and Hermes Agent unlocks. And that's what this guide is showing you step by step. Right? And so, let's talk about some beliefs that might be making you stuck. And it's not because of a lack of tools. Number one, some people believe that AI agents are just like a a chat, like ChatGPT, literally. Right?

[00:06:24]But, the truth is AI agents are full employees. They use tools, they search the web, they write and edit files, they run code, they manage tasks, they remember what they did last week. Hermes Agent alone has 30 native tools and 80 skills. That's not like a chat. That is a workforce. Right? And you can see them all working together over here inside the our organization structure. Right?

[00:06:44]Now, a people say, "This is too technical for me." The truth is, if you can run a WhatsApp group, you can run Paperclip. Right? You install it with one command.

[00:06:52]You can get Claude code to do it for you if you're struggling. And that's it. The whole platform spins up automatically.

[00:06:57]You don't need to set up the database, you don't need to set up the servers, you don't need to code. Right? It takes about, I would say, 30 minutes to 1 hour to get it configured properly. Some people want to say, "I already use Claude and ChatGPT. I don't need this."

[00:07:07]But, the truth is, using Claude solo is like hiring one freelancer. Paperclip plus Hermes Agent is like running a whole company. Right? One agent could do your SEO as you've seen. One agent could do content. One agent can handle customer support. One agent can run your social media. They coordinate with each other. They report to each other. They work 24/7. That's not ChatGPT, that's a whole team working together. Right? And so, this is the difference between all of them. So, it's a really powerful system, really cool to use, a lot of fun to set up, and there's no limit really to what you can do. You can even set up multiple companies. So, we've got one for Julian Goldy, and then we have one for Goldy Agency. Right? And so, you can set up multiple different agents working across different companies with different teams, different missions, etc. All right? And you can see how it's working and finding more related keywords right here, which is pretty cool. So, we've got these tasks being set up, as you can see, and they're super easy to set up and just get it done. We can also see what tasks and how many tasks each agent's working on. So, for example, Hermes task has two different agents in progress, right? And we can also see the live updates someone's doing, right? So, for example, here it says, "Set up a sanded loan landing page at airtable.com for SEO control." All right? And so, it's coming up with the SEO strategy that we asked it to earlier, which is pretty amazing.

[00:08:21]So, that's basically it. That's how to use Paperclip. Just to recap here, you might be saying, "Okay, what is Hermes agent?" Hermes agent is like a super smart agent that doesn't just answer questions, it does things, right? Runs locally and it can just get stuff done.

[00:08:35]It was built by a company called News Research and it's a super powerful agent, right? So, it's basically an What? You give it a job, it does the job, it reports back. Now, you might say, "What is Paperclip?" So, this is the company your AI agents work inside.

[00:08:47]So, imagine that super smart agent that we talked about, Hermes agent, what if you had 20 of them or 50 of them? All different or doing different jobs. One handling SEO, one writing content, one managing customer support, one doing research, one running social media, one monitoring your competitors. Without any system to manage them, that would be chaos. You'd lose track of what was happening, right? You'd have no way to make sure they were all working toward the same goal. And that's exactly the problem that Paperclip was built to solve, right? You can see, for example, we can manage your agent here and we can see what it's doing and working on, etc. And so, it's an open source platform, which means it's free to use. It looks like a task manager, but under the hood, it's a full company operating system.

[00:09:26]So, you get the org chart, the ticketing system, the heartbeats, the mobile ready setup, and multi-company setup as well.

[00:09:34]So, we have two different companies set up. So, if Hermes agent is the employee, Paperclip is the company they work for, right? And together, they're the most powerful autonomous stack for AI agents on the planet right now. So, that's basically it. This is how to use it, how to set it up, etc. If you want the full guide, I'll put that inside the AI Profit Boarding for you. And just to recap on what we've talked about today, what is Hermes' agent? It's a superpowered AI agent with 30 tools, 80 skills, persistent memory, eight model providers, right? It doesn't just answer questions, it does real work. What is Paperclip? It's an open-source platform that turns AI agents into a company, right? Org charts, org beats, governance, ticketing systems, mobile dashboard, free, self-hosted, right?

[00:10:11]What happens when you combine them? You get an autonomous team. Agents wake up on a schedule, they pick up tasks from the ticketing system, they do real work using your tools, they remember everything across sessions, they report back, and you actually can give them a budget in terms of tokens as well. And the Goldy method that we talked about, you define the goal, build the org chart, launch the agents, delegate the task, iterate on results, and expand from there, right? And so, if you want my full system, all the notes from today, 100 prompts and how to set up, the custom framework, and step-by-step operating procedure, you can get that inside the AI Profit Boarding, as you can see right here. We add new daily guides, like you can see with video tutorials and step-by-step operating procedures for everything that's new and interesting. And this is my AI Automation Community that helps you grow, learn, and scale with AI Automation. So, inside here, you can ask questions inside the community, and I'll ask them I'll answer them with a video each day. Inside the calendar, you can jump on weekly coaching calls. So, there's four weekly coaching calls where you can get help and support in real time. Inside the map, you can connect with people in your local area who using AI Automation and AI agents like Hermes and Open Claw and Claw. And then inside the classroom, you get access to all of my best trainings, like you can see right here, including the new daily guides and updates. Let's see what questions we've got now. Which do you think is the best setup, Hermes and Paperclip or Hermes and Hermes Workspace? So, if you want a team of agents, Paperclip is the best. If you want a basic UI for managing Hermes, then I would use Hermes Workspace. And that's the difference, right? Hermes Workspace is great if you've got one agent. Paperclip is better if you want to go to a team of agents across multiple platforms, right? So, Hermes Workspace is just designed for Hermes.

[00:11:49]But, for example, Hermes with Paperclip is a team of agents working together.

[00:11:55]What are the main differences between this and Hermes Workspace? Aeon UI and similar interfaces. The biggest difference is that with Paperclip you're managing a whole team, right? So, that's the biggest difference here. With Paperclip you're managing a whole team, and you're not just managing one agent, right? Aeon UI is just like a chat interface, but Paperclip is about building a team, building a an actual AI-led company. I see similar to Aeon UI, but looks much better and more tools. Exactly. Hey guys, sorry, I just joined. Did you already connect Hermes and Paperclip? Yeah. So, you can get the adapter for Paperclip with Hermes, and then you just ask Hermes to set up for you. And that's basically how you connect them. It's pretty simple and easy. Hermes can already do multi-profile specialized workers, and the main agent can coordinate with LLM selection. What's the advantage of shifting that to Paperclip? Because with Hermes, if you're managing different profiles, right? Let's say for example, you're using like Hermes UI or you're using Hermes desktop, etc. You've got all these agents, but they're not working together, right? They're not working together as a team. And if you're using the TUI as well, the terminal user interface, it's just not that nice to use, right? It's not that easy to manage. Whereas, if you look at Paperclip, look how clean and easy it is to organize your agents, right? Like you list your agents here, they all work together at the same time. And also, when you've got these agents running, it's not just Hermes, right? So, Hermes, yes, it's got multiple profiles, but you can't create a new agent for Claude Code, Codex, Open Code, Pi Cursor, and Open Claude at the same time and manage them all in my stash board. Right? So, that's the biggest difference here. And if you want to see an example of the outputs from these agents, right? So, for example, someone was saying like, "Can you show an example?" So, here's an example, right? So, it's completed the whole SEO strategy for the Air Profit Bot over here. So, it's created this full strategy here. And then if you go over here, we can paste our in and it's created this full strategy while I was talking to you. Right? It's broken down the keywords, the summary, the priority keywords, the technical SEO. It's planned out the whole link building strategy as well. So, everything step-by-step is set up including quick wins for the first 2 weeks, key metrics to track, etc. And that's the whole plan set up while I was talking to you.

[00:14:05]Right? Now, imagine you have a team of 50 agents all working like this, as productively as that, in the background.

[00:14:11]That's what Paperclip gives you. And it's super easy to organize. For enterprise, how does that hold up? So, I think an enterprise company like this probably isn't going to set something like Paperclip up, right? Because enterprise, they can't move as fast as a solopreneurs. And that's because people need to approve stuff like this. If you're in an enterprise, like you can't just set up Paperclip and start running AI agents with all your internal documents. Like you just can't do that, right? And so like you have If you're a solopreneur or if you're running an agency or a SME, then you've got a massive advantage with AI because you you don't have those layers of approval where you have to worry about stuff like that. I think Aion is the best according to Bird. So, let's compare these side-by-side, right? So, you've got Aion and we'll pull this up now, right? This is Aion UI. So, it's totally different.

[00:14:57]If you compare the differences here, Aion UI is like a nice way just to manage your conversations with your agents. But they're not going to work together. They're not going to You're not going to have a full organization structure like you can see right here.

[00:15:09]You can't manage your individual agents as well. You can't set up set up a goal, right? Paperclip is much more about setting up a AI company, whereas for example, Aion UI is more about like just talking and managing your agents across different platforms. So, it's a totally different use case. Has anyone heard of Business Hermes? I've never heard of that. All right. So, thanks so much for watching. If you want to get all of my training on this stuff, feel free to get the AI Profit Bottom link in the comments description or go to the AI profitbottom.com to check this out. Tex says, "Thanks Julian. What about combining AION and Paper Click?

[00:15:41]Does it make sense?" It doesn't make sense. You're adding the extra layer of complexity that you don't need to, right? So, you can just go straight to Paper Click and set up your agents directly inside Paper Click. And that's way simpler and easier than if you, for example, tried to manage AION inside Paper Click, which is going to get a bit messy and that sort of thing. Bird says, "The same thanks to you." Explanation.

[00:16:01]Happy to help. Thanks for the clarification. What's the best AI to install locally that can do basically everything? Yeah, Cloud Code and Ollama is pretty good. Yeah, would recommend that. And Guru says, "Thanks a lot, Julian. Always following and learning here." Happy to help. By the way, for the AI Profit Bottom, we have over 156 pages of testimonials like you can see right here. So, tons of great stuff here if you want to learn about AI agents.
