The Automation Playground review

The Automation Playground is listed on Skool. It charges $25 a month.

A review on the numbers, not an opinion: nobody here has joined The Automation Playground, and nothing below is a verdict.

The Automation Playground is a paid Skool community that teaches members to build AI agents, workflows and SaaS solutions with no-code tools.[1] Its owner, Oumnya, is CEO of CloudStation and says the group shares the production workflows used to build and run AI agents inside that company and deliver them to clients.[1] The group was created in March 2025.[1]

About The Automation Playground

Members get a monthly live workshop with replays on architecture, deployment and debugging, and step-by-step builds that run from problem framing through design and implementation to delivery.[1] The group also offers direct help on members' workflows, a request-a-use-case queue from which the owner picks requests to build live, and versioned templates and playbooks with changelogs.[1] The group is aimed at builders of any level who want self-hosted, client-ready automations without SaaS lock-ins.[1]

CloudStation, started in 2021, is the SaaS company behind Charlie, an AI orchestration platform that coordinates AI agents to complete engineering tasks and works with a customer's own Claude, OpenAI or Gemini subscription.[2][3] As of September 2026, CloudStation listed app deployment from $17.99 a month and AI agent orchestration from $29.99 a month, marked as early adopter pricing subject to change.[4] Oumnya's YouTube channel covers building AI agents and what CloudStation ships, with a stated mission to make AI agents work for founders who do not want to learn Python.[2]
