The Manifesto

The OutClaw Manifesto: Practicality over Hype.

OutClaw AI was built because most AI content is written by hype-merchants who have never shipped a single line of agentic code. We fix that every Tuesday.

The Builder Behind OutClaw: Zach Bailey.

I've spent the last three years deep in the weeds of AI — building workflows, testing models, breaking things, and publishing The Prompt Engineer’s Playbook: Strategies for AI-Driven Business Solutions (Amazon, Oct 2024). In addition to OutClaw, I launched Ads Agent Meta (adsagentmeta.com — autonomous AI advertising platform), and run SEO Littleton (seolittleton.com), DistroPixel (distropixel.com), and aiseo.fyi. Most of this ends up in my weekly newsletter.

OutClaw started as a simple question: "What should I actually pay attention to this week?" That question remains the only editorial filter for every issue.

I care about useful over impressive. Practical over theoretical. Alpha over hype. If you've ever read an AI newsletter and thought "that was a lot of words for not much" — this manifesto is for you.
