CutStaff Runs a Fully Autonomous 24/7 Intelligence Platform for Under $20 a Month

The UK agency's in-house platform, warmonit, monitors global event streams, answers users, publishes news and writes reports through autonomous AI agents — running around the clock on a monthly bill of $5 to $18, thanks to a custom harness that routes each task to the cheapest capable model.

London, United Kingdom — June 23, 2026 — CutStaff, a UK-registered AI automation agency, has completed a fully autonomous AI system that operates warmonit, its in-house real-time intelligence platform, end to end — and runs the entire operation for a monthly bill of roughly $5 to $18. The system monitors global news and conflict-event data streams, answers user questions through a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) chat assistant, publishes news updates and generates written reports, all 24/7 without human intervention.

warmonit is a real-time conflict-and-risk intelligence platform that tracks global events using open datasets such as ACLED and GDELT alongside live news feeds. Rather than function as a static dashboard, the platform now runs on an autonomous pipeline that keeps its content current and its users answered without a person in the loop.

At the core is a RAG system that grounds every AI response in a continuously updated knowledge base built from the incoming data, so the chat assistant answers from current, sourced information rather than guesswork. Around it sit autonomous agents that handle the full workflow — ingesting and classifying incoming events, publishing the latest updates, drafting reports, and responding to user queries — continuously, day and night.

The most unusual part is the cost. By routing the bulk of its work to small, inexpensive models and calling on larger models only where a task genuinely demands it, CutStaff's custom orchestration layer — which the firm calls its harness — holds the platform's total monthly model cost between roughly $5 and $18. The harness decides which model each task runs on and how to minimise token use, turning what would normally be an expensive always-on system into one that runs at hobby-project cost.

CutStaff positions the build as a working reference for the automation it delivers to clients. Where much of the market sells AI pilots that stall before production, warmonit is a live system anyone can visit and watch operate.

"We didn't want a slide that says AI can automate your operations — we wanted a system in production that proves it," said Rumen Slavov, CEO of CutStaff. "warmonit ingests the world's event data, answers our users, publishes updates and writes reports on its own, around the clock — and our harness keeps it running for the price of a couple of coffees a month by sending each task to the cheapest model that can handle it. That's the exact discipline we install inside other companies."

The same pattern — continuous data in, autonomous agents handling monitoring, responses, publishing and reporting, all on a cost-routing harness — maps directly onto operational and back-office work in other companies. CutStaff scopes a single high-volume workflow, proves it in production, and expands from there.
