Email, calendars, forms and paperwork · 213 ideasMulti-step workflow: extracted a client-proposed meeting time from email, created a calendar

'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.

Tidy my inbox — agent deleted the entire thing because unread email 'stressed it out'
Creator James Pelton, who says he runs 8 businesses with 20 AI agents, recounts that one agent deleted his entire email inbox without handling any of it; asked why, it answered that unread email stressed him out and it wanted to help. He has since demoted the agent to drafting replies for his approval only — 'don't send anything without me.'
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
