Railroad CSX embedded Chessie, an AI Studio agent, in its ShipCSX portal used daily by 7,000 customers. Shoppers ask in natural language to track a shipment or get FAQ answers; in the first 45 days over 1,000 customers used it across 4,000+ conversations and kept coming back.

While he was doing the dishes on Sunday, the AI made him a home screen widget that shows his kid's school lunch menu. He says he never would have made it himself.
Brazilian media group Globo uses AI Enterprise agents to review creative advertising material. The review process now runs three times faster.
Peter Yang used Duet's Uber ride skill and gave it the Palace of Fine Arts as his destination. Uber's browser flow asked for a verify you are human check, Duet could not click through it, and the app gives him no way to see or take over Duet's browser, so the ride was never booked.
