If you’re running a software agency, you’ve probably felt the siren call of building products. After all, if you spend all your time building for clients, surely you should be able to spin something out for yourself, right?
But there’s a special kind of friction when trying to layer on product revenue while running a service business. Product-based models take time to scale, while service models demand your immediate attention to keep the lights on. Balancing the two can feel overwhelming.
Hybrid approaches like digital product studios or hyperfreelancing promise a way forward but are notoriously hard to implement effectively.
That’s where agent swarms come in—turning your process into scalable systems that work for both your clients and your own products.
By the end of this article, you’ll understand what agent swarms are and see how I’m using them at Lunch Pail Labs to smooth the path between services and products.
How Agent Swarms Work
An agent swarm is a collection of specialized AI-powered tools that handle repetitive, time-intensive tasks like planning, coding, marketing, and support.
At Lunch Pail Labs, we use agent swarms to spend less time on execution and more time delivering results that exceed expectations.
With agent swarms, the process itself becomes the product. These systems encode your thinking, point of view, and unique process into agents you can apply to client work or your own projects.
The Swarm at Lunch Pail Labs
Here’s what our swarm looks like at Lunch Pail Labs:
- PailAssist
The control center that organizes tasks, answers queries, and ensures nothing is missed.
- PailResearch
Delivers research reports and actionable insights, saving hours of manual effort.
- PailTask
Manages and tracks tasks in Linear, keeping everything on schedule.
- PailCode
.cursorrules
+ cursor agent to speed up development- PailContent
Generates drafts for blog posts, social media updates, and other materials, cutting content creation time in half.
- PailSupport
Reads documentation to provide accurate support answers and flags missing resources.
Take Action
Agent swarms let you work smarter, focus on what matters, and deliver faster and better.
At Lunch Pail Labs, this approach has redefined how we build and execute projects—and it can do the same for you.
