Level up how you use AI
Real things everyday people got it to do, and how to try them yourself.
A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
An AI agent wrote the firmware and CAD for my radar stair light over four weeks
Over four weeks of evenings, an AI agent wrote the firmware, the live web chart, the Node-RED automation and the enclosure CAD for his radar stair light, driving a live Fusion 360 session through its scripting API. He reviewed, printed and measured, and the second half of the video lists what the agent got confidently wrong, including a radome gap that landed on exactly a quarter wavelength.
The AI studied his old workflows and built him a tool that cut token spend by about 80 percent
Got the AI to analyse his past dynamic workflows and build a composing tool and standard agent scripts, cutting token spend about 80 percent and workflow runs from 5 to 6 hours to 20 to 40 minutes.
Used the AI to check a crush's new Instagram follows and discovered he
Beth, posting in Chinese from New York, says a tall blonde man she likes recommended the AI to her — and she promptly turned it on him, running a chat labeled (in her screenshot) 'View the liked boy's new Instagram follows.' the AI’s analysis showed that although he claimed to have cut ties with his ex as of April 2026, he is still following her and never unfollowed, and had minimized four to five months of reconnection as 'contacted a bit a few months ago.' She notes this kind of follow/unfollow tr
A travel app built from 45 one-shot prompts, shipped to the store
Sojourn for iOS was built from 45 one-shot prompts and shipped as an app.
A cold outreach agency at $58,500 a month runs on three plain agents, not an AI setter
He runs a B2B cold outreach agency at $58,500 a month in recurring revenue. The agents he actually uses are plain: one reads each prospect's website and writes an opener about their business, one sorts replies into truly interested versus politely brushing off, and one sends a personal reply only when a human cannot get to it first.
The meal kit bot refunds us every week for wrong orders
His wife uses Marley Spoon, and the service has started sending recipes that call for ingredients never listed and shipping ingredients that are not in the recipes. Its customer service bot refunds them automatically every week.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI built my home remote in half an hour
He had wanted a small Home Assistant remote on an old M5Paper eInk module for 3 years and never built it. The AI did it in half an hour, and the remote now pulls up all his rooms and shows the sensors and buttons he tagged as Remote.
Win my out-of-network surgery approval with an AI-built appeal
After UnitedHealthcare denied coverage for his out-of-network spinal surgeon, Donald Grant used Claimable's AI appeal service to build an 11-page legal and medical appeal, which he emailed to the insurer's CEO, officials and reporters. UnitedHealthcare approved both the surgeon and the procedure at the in-network rate ahead of his October 14 surgery.
The AI helps write the extra articles for my site each week
He runs an AI skill for his 365tipu site, now also for the extra articles in its weekly edition. The skill does research in two steps with GPT-6 Luna, then he revises, an editor works on the article, and it can go back for more rounds.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
