Simmons asked László to learn his Zone 2 method from his training community and analyse three months of pace and heart-rate data ahead of the New York City Marathon. Finding Garmin's API needed a developer account, the Dot signed up for Intervals.icu on its own, pulled his runs, built a dashboard called Steady and set up post-run messages.
Asked how many days he trains, requested photos of his gear, and
Anthony (Neutron Toys, in his 40s) chatted with his agent 'Rodimus', which asked training frequency and injury history and requested photos of his home-gym gear. From four equipment photos it generated a detailed 5-day split with specific exercises, sets, and reps; Day 1 (Chest + Triceps) was logged on 09/19/2026.
Be my trainer and nutritionist across my watch, food log and scale
An Italian user connected the AI over MCP to three sources of truth — Garmin for activity and recovery, Yazio for food, a FitDays scale for weight and body composition — and gave it a coach's rulebook in CLAUDE.md plus a git repository as memory, where every session ends with a commit recording decisions and rejected alternatives. Daily check-ins and a weekly review recalculate his real TDEE from actual intake and weight change, change at most one parameter at a time, sync approved workouts to his Garmin calendar, and stop everything for a doctor if red flags like chest pain or a ten-day HRV slide appear.
Built a travel workout plan from her hotel gym's equipment (Day 1
LeAura Luciano messaged her agent 'mini me' while traveling, asking for a workout plan fitting her travel schedule and available equipment.

The AI logs my sleep, food, mood and medicine every night, then charts it for my appointments
His medical assistant runs every evening at 8pm and asks if he wants to log the day. He types a sentence or two and the AI turns it into structured logs of his sleep, food, mood and medicine, and during his appointments he can ask the AI to make charts from those logs.
Run a day of health errands: flu shot, benefits signup and an $80 ring discount
In 24 hours the AI scheduled and rescheduled the user's flu shot, found an Oura Ring discount worth $80 in total, enrolled him in a benefits plan while making sure he did not over-contribute to his HSA, and summarised two podcasts into his notes.
$80
He made his own workout app with AI and dropped the paid one
A man made a workout app with AI that he uses instead of the paid app he had before, which he says saves him $100 a month, and he likes his own better. One sound bug in it is still unsolved despite his and the AI’s efforts.

Built a split strength program around real Peloton classes (~5 min, designed
A hands-on PeloBuddy test had the AI build a split strength program anchored to real Peloton classes, producing a designed PDF in about 5 minutes and scheduling 12 classes back-to-back on the user's calendar.
The AI analyzed my whole genome in 30 minutes for about $5
A Stanford doctor gave the AI his own genome file and a 180 word prompt based on the framework his team published in 2009. In about 30 minutes for about $5, the AI matched the main findings of that team’s work, flagged genes that affect how he responds to some medicines, and warned that his file did not have enough data for disease risk scores.
The AI found $200 of overbilling on my medical procedure
The AI went over his medical procedure bill and found $200 of overbilling. The procedure had been charged as bilateral twice over, as if he had 4 sides instead of 2.

The AI made my meditation album. I play it in Plexamp.
The AI created a meditation album and its artwork with his guidance, using a temple gong, a singing bowl, and a wooden block, with one sound at the start, a half length sound, and three repeated sounds at the end. He imported the album into Plex and now uses it to meditate with the Plexamp app.
Astra logs my workouts in Excel and updates the progress app it built
The AI is his gym trainer: he reports his sets and reps as he does them, and later that day Astra logs them into an Excel tracker, then uses the updated tracker to refresh an HTML app it built that shows his progress over time and his missed workouts.
Her agent keeps her full food record and puts the calories on her dashboard
She takes a photo of every meal and her agent identifies the food, estimates calories and macros, and logs it to a CSV. When the totals ran high it caught a unit bug (grams counted as pieces) and fixed it, and the running totals show on her Home Assistant dashboard.
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.
Rename my generic Strava activities using my date and location rules, and keep a log

His agent watched swimming lesson openings and booked one for his son when a spot appeared

Had the AI 'Munchkin' analyze ~14,000 saved Instagram posts and produce a 'Saved
Aggie Lal (verified, 1.7M followers), a mom, asked her AI 'Munchkin' to process her ~14,000 saved Instagram posts.

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.
