The Agency AI Conference
Event curated by:

Agency Hackers
The fad that’s stuck around and hanging in the air, becoming more and more of a threat. AI.
The Robots Are Coming? The Robots Are Here To Stay.
To help you combat this threat and arm your agency, we’re throwing another instalment of our AI conference. We’ll cover a range of topics under the overlord theme of AI that span different expert levels so all the newbies and experts can merge under one roof.
AI isn’t just one thing. It’s not just prompts, or tools, or shiny demos. It’s a shift in how work gets done – from content creation and automation, to how agencies operate internally, how teams stay productive, and how clients will find and choose you in a world run by agents, rather than humans.
No matter where you are in your AI journey, you’ll have countless voices in your ears on how you should use AI. “Have you heard about this new tool that will solve every single one of your issues?”
At The Robots Are Coming, we understand all of that incessant noise can be overwhelming. This event is designed to meet agencies where they actually are – and help move them forward together.
AI is changing the rules of agency life: quietly, quickly, and unevenly. The agencies that win won’t be the ones chasing every new tool, but the ones who understand the landscape of what works for them, and who choose their moves wisely.
This is where that understanding can begin.



SPEAKERS


The State of AI in Agencies Right Now
Peter Czapp presents fresh data from The Wow Company’s BenchPress report, based on 700 UK agencies. This session reveals how AI is really being used, where it delivers speed and cost savings, and where it creates risks, shifting client expectations and exposing gaps in training and governance.

What Good Looks Like: Using AI Inside Creative Teams
Most agencies use AI, but in fragmented, unscalable ways. In this breakout, Jules Love shows how Spark has turned AI into a joined-up agency capability using node-based workflows like Weavy (now Figma Weave). Expect live demos, real craft, and a smarter way to create differentiated creative work with AI.

The AI Role Plan: Better Prompting Means Better Thinking
Hayley Meakes explains why most teams misuse AI and get poor results. She introduces the Role Plan, a practical way to map daily tasks and apply AI beyond basic writing. This session shows how better inputs, not more tools, unlock faster, smarter agency work.

Building Your First AI Agent with n8n
Ann Stanley shares how she uses n8n to build practical AI agents without coding. In this hands on session, she builds a simple agent live, explains the visual building blocks behind it, and shows real production examples so agency teams can confidently automate routine work themselves.

Fewer People, Better Work: Secrets Inside Progressive Agencies
Jeremy McDonald explains how AI is dismantling the traditional agency model by replacing people-heavy delivery with scalable, data-driven processes. He shows how custom AI automations enable agencies to deliver faster, with fewer people and better margins – shifting the economics beneath creativity, not eliminating it.

AI Tool Show and Tell
This session shows why agencies succeeding with AI are building first and pitching later. Arran Kirkup and Mark Alford share how fast, imperfect prototypes win client trust, unlock real demand, and reshape businesses, proving value through tangible tools rather than polished decks or abstract promises.
