Dots watches his messages and digs out the important ones that got buried or filtered

Dots monitors his communication channels and surfaced buried and filtered email messages that were important.

His agents send real letters for him, disputes and a gym cancellation included

A man built a service so his own agents can send physical mail. He has used it to submit credit card disputes, credit bureau disputes and a gym cancellation, the letters people put off because they mean printing, envelopes and a post office trip.

His wife asked her renamed, recolored the AI to review her email inbox

Liberty RPF's author tested the AI heavily himself after it launched in Canada, but his wife's onboarding was the telling detail: delighted by the mascot, she renamed it, changed its color, and asked it to review her email inbox daily — her first real agent job.

Claimed she hadn't sent an email she had in fact sent; trusting

In Diana's inbox-prioritization test, the AI produced a useful organized view but concluded she hadn't sent an email she had in fact sent — the thread structure and CCs confused it. If she'd trusted the first answer, she'd have sent a duplicate email.

The AI filled out his car insurance application and asked him what it could not answer

The AI filled out his car insurance application for him. Where an answer was not in what it knew, it stopped and asked him instead of guessing.

An AI reads his email every 15 minutes and files it away

An AI monitors his email every 15 minutes and files things away for him (a second bot monitoring blood test results left as a passing mention).

The AI cut an unread Gmail backlog from 65,000+ to 700

The author reports the AI reduced his unread Gmail from more than 65,000 messages to about 700.

The AI turned 150 government forms into an app flow with one person in 2 weeks

The AI was fed government forms, UI design and legal requirements and produced the app in 1 hour; the team completed conversion of 150+ forms in 2 weeks with one person versus a year before.

Testing the AI as an email sorter, it buried the warning that his keys had leaked

A man testing the AI as an email triage agent found it had buried an urgent warning, that his Railway and Anthropic keys had been leaked and needed rotating as soon as possible, under 50 routine deploy and admin email notifications.

'Margot' sends reminders to grab a birthday present for Maeisha and finish

Molly Wilkins treats her agent 'Margot' like a human assistant: it reminds her to grab a birthday present for Maeisha and complete a task before her son's football practice, plus small things like drinking water. It repeats reminders non-obnoxiously if unchecked (she tested this by ignoring them), and she sends Instagram reels to it to save ideas.

Fix my foundation's broken donation payments and split the portal into four funds

A non-developer used AI to restore his foundation's broken donation payments and restructure the portal into four separate funds; the site shows $17,149,000 in donations processed.

Fine Print: review my contracts and draft the dispute

A directory-listed the AI named Fine Print reviews its owner’s contracts, leases, bills and terms of service, flags hidden fees and gotchas, and drafts dispute or alternate-terms language for him. It is a standing reviewer for every document he is asked to sign.

215 notifications a day became a triage bot of his own building

He gets 215 GitHub notifications a day, so he built a bot to triage them.

Added an event to his calendar

Monitored the work email inbox and drafted client replies in the reviewer's

Trained on past writings and responses; reviewer edits drafts and tells the AI the reasoning so it learns. Drafts only - never sends autonomously.

The AI built me a dashboard that tracks 1,000 bills and their hearings

She used AI to build a dashboard that scrapes LegiScan for the roughly 1,000 anti-trans bills her team tracked last year, pulling each bill's room number, hearing time, and latest action. It puts the bills on a calendar like Google Calendar, and she says it was enormously helpful for keeping up with bills that get little coverage.

Extracted cinema-ticket details from a forwarded WhatsApp screenshot and added the event

Juan Lombana (verified, 670K followers), reviewing the AI in Spanish, demonstrated two capabilities via screen recordings: a personal-assistant goal tracker (college move-in, golf tee times, movie tickets, trip planning, school-supply shopping, IMAX booking) and WhatsApp integration — forwarding a cinema-ticket screenshot, from which the AI extracted the details, added them to his calendar, and scheduled the event. He compared its assistant-like proactivity favorably to the AI and noted secure payme

It reads my email and texts and builds my week every morning

The same setup reads his incoming email and texts, builds his weekly to do list, sends him a digest every morning with the list and any scheduling clashes he might miss, and adds events to the family calendar on its own. A spreadsheet of every house appliance and its service schedule feeds the list, and it drafts the messages to repair firms for him to send.

Clear the marketing clutter out of my Gmail and unsubscribe me

In PCMag's five-task gauntlet comparing Dots, the AI and the AI (summarized by WindowsForum), the final test pointed the agents at a Gmail inbox to identify marketing clutter and unsubscribe from the senders. The AI identified the emails but failed to launch its browser to actually follow through on external unsubscribe links when required, leaving the execution undone; Dots, by contrast, catalogued 700+ senders and clicked through unsubscribe pages.

I book my haircuts and movie tickets by just saying the day and time

Commenting on the 26 use cases post, he says his AI books all his haircuts: he just says book a haircut on a day at a time, and the email confirmation comes in. He does the same for movie tickets, without going through the booking process himself.
