Find Manhattan foot doctors who take my insurance, with phone numbers

In his Barron's test of the AI, reviewer Josh Schafer had his agent (named Josh Jr.) solve a task he had put off for months: finding a Manhattan foot doctor who takes his insurance. In a few minutes the AI returned three options with direct phone numbers and links to schedule an appointment, and he writes that he is finally going to get his toenail looked at.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. Take the request (foot doctor, Manhattan, must accept his insurance)
  2. Search providers
  3. Filter by insurance and location
  4. Return three options with direct numbers and scheduling links

Why it’s worth knowing

The bottleneck was never skill, it was the insurance-plus-location filtering the reviewer had avoided for months; the agent cleared it in minutes.
