A&R teams manually scan 8 music charts daily (2-3 hours). Built automated AI agent: scans 998 tracks, scores 51 artists, researches via Perplexity, adds qualified (score ≥50) to Notion. Replaced Express/Neon/Redis stack ($49-85/mo) with Cloudflare Workflows + D1 ($0.60/mo). Execution: 8 minutes, 100% success rate. Challenges: SQLite syntax differences, rate limiting, duplicate prevention.
