Marc Palet Automates VC Work With $120-a-Month AI, Replacing Intern Tasks

Singapore-based VC Marc Palet said he spends more than $120 a month on AI tools to handle operational work, arguing the setup is more effective than hiring and training an intern.
Claude, ChatGPT, n8n and transcription tools now summarize founder meetings, capture research into knowledge bases and update portfolio-company pages from Gmail, Slack, newsletters and call transcripts.
One agent drafts quarterly limited-partner reports and another supports audit work, cutting time spent on repetitive tasks at OMVC, where Palet is the only employee outside the US.
That automation has also lifted his LinkedIn publishing pace from one deep-dive article every two months to one every three weeks, which he says brings in more deal flow and frees time for meetings.
