This summer, Agentuity had the privilege of welcoming three exceptionally talented interns to our team: Nick Mirigliani (Stevens Institute of Technology), Dhilan Fye (University of Miami), and Joel Samuel (University of Florida). Over the course of the program, they tackled ambitious technical challenges, contributed valuable resources for the broader AI developer community, and helped streamline our own internal operations, all while gaining hands-on experience in real-world engineering.
From the start, our goals for the internship program were clear:
- Build assets for the community — improve our developer documentation, create sample AI agents, and publish open-source projects that anyone can fork and use.
- Automate internal processes — identify and build agents to handle repetitive or time-consuming internal tasks.
- Invest in people — provide a collaborative environment where the interns could work on meaningful projects, develop technical skills, and experience end-to-end product ownership.
Big Projects, Big Impact
The interns’ work fell into two main streams: internal automation and developer community contributions.
1. Internal AI Agents
Their flagship internal project was a sophisticated CRM automation agent. This agent connects our payment systems, user management tools, and cold outreach platform, then pushes relevant data into Slack and our CRM. It alerts us when an action is needed, like reaching out to a lead, and even analyzes incoming cold outreach replies to determine if it can respond automatically (scheduling a meeting, sending links to our docs, etc.). If it can’t, it flags the conversation for a human to step in.
The impact was immediate: a significant reduction in manual CRM work, better response times to potential customers, and more visibility across the team.
You can read more about how we built the CRM agent on our blog post.
“Getting to fully own the Stripe Agent for the CRM project was great for me. I learned a ton about working across tools like Stripe, Attio, and Composio, and just figuring things out end-to-end.”
— Dhilan
“Usually with the examples we made before, we would finish and that was it. With this project, it went live, but it didn't feel "over." We still have to monitor it's performance, see what's working and what isn't, and make tweaks so it continues to improve and work as we want it to.”

2. Developer Community Resources
Externally, the interns made major contributions to our library of AI agent samples, taking on a backlog we had been building for months. These ideas came from blog posts, social media threads, new framework releases, and our own brainstorming sessions. Among the agents they delivered:
- LLM-as-a-Judge — evaluate and score outputs from different LLMs
- Sales Engineer Agent — automatically draft responses to RFPs
- Hiring Manager Agent - conducts automated interviews
- Fitness Coach Agent - personalized coach over Slack
You can read about many of these agents, and the others they built, right here on our blog.
They also improved our developer documentation by adding new examples, clarifying explanations, and expanding code samples, making it easier for developers to hit the ground running with our platform.
“It was cool to be building with Agentuity as it was also being developed. Developing like that, talking about issues and confusions as they came up I think helped create better documentation because as interns we were coming into it with less of a preconception of how the platform worked.”
— Nick
Standout Moments
Some of the best moments of the summer went beyond the code.
One highlight was Joel coming to San Francisco to join us at the AI Engineer World’s Fair. He manned our booth, met with attendees, answered questions, and gave live demos of Agentuity. His confidence, technical fluency, and natural connection with people made a big impression. Not just on us, but on everyone he spoke with.
“Getting to talk to different individuals, whether that be executives, founders, or other developers about our product was an amazing experience. Getting to see other people use something that I worked on felt really rewarding as I worked so hard on it. Overall, I had such a great time, made tons of friends and connections I wouldn’t have made otherwise.”
— Joel
Another highlight was our end-of-summer offsite. We rented a house near HQ, flew in all three interns along with the company founders, and spent a week coding, collaborating, and sharing ideas. And ate a lot of BBQ, of course.
“The Austin offsite was a great time. Great to hang out in person, get work done together, and just feel more connected as a team.”
— Dhilan
Reflections & Takeaways
What surprised us most was how quickly Dhilan, Joel, and Nick ramped up. They worked through our agent backlog faster than expected and approached the CRM automation project with the mindset of a seasoned engineering team. They handled architecture, integrations, planning, and product management almost entirely on their own, delivering a complete, polished solution that we immediately put into production.
Our advice to future interns:
Ask questions early, collaborate often, and don’t be afraid to own a project from idea to delivery. That’s where the real growth happens.
Dhilan, Joel, and Nick — thank you for your hard work, creativity, and professionalism. The projects you’ve built will continue to serve our team and the wider developer community long after the summer has ended. We can’t wait to see where your careers take you next.
