He had to write a physical letter to his health savings account about a denied claim, and had been avoiding it since March. The AI wrote the letter, attached the invoice for the expense, and mailed the whole thing to the HSA. His only job was taking over for the $2.31 payment. Whether the claim was then paid is not stated in the comment.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
Create my swim, bike, run, and gym workouts on my watch
A triathlete uses a Garmin MCP through AI Desktop - forked because the stock version couldn't build his workout types - so the AI creates and schedules his swim, bike, run, and gym sessions, pushing them to his Garmin calendar, which syncs straight to the watch on his wrist.
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.
My agent plans my workouts from my calendar and my own results, and I cancelled 20 dollars of subscriptions
A man set the AI to pull each week's workouts from training providers he used to pay for, since they post the sessions free but late. The AI checks his calendar for when he can train, offers him two options a day, then records what he actually did and how it felt, and uses that history to scale future sessions. A few weeks in it is saving him 20 dollars a month in subscriptions.

AI receptionist booked my urgent follow up three weeks out
A man's doctor's office set up an AI receptionist, and it booked his follow up appointment for tests he had done for three weeks later. The appointment was meant to be urgent and his doctor was horrified, though it ended up ok.

Set up a baby sleep-training goal with a gentle action plan and
Vo asked the AI to set up a gentle sleep-training goal for her eight-and-a-half-month-old, noting the family room-shares in a small house. The AI created a gentle action plan with automated reminders tailored to that constraint.

A Sister Built Wally, a Voice Aid App, for Her Brother After Cancer Took His Voice
Amy, 58, who never wrote code, built Wally on the AI for her brother after laryngectomy left him voiceless: one tap speaks urgent phrases like 'I am having trouble breathing,' plus daily needs and family phrases; it also pulls live golf scores, hosts family messages and a medical ID page. He used it daily until his death in August 2026.
'Mila' coaches Day 19: three garage-workout options plus weekday reminders
On day 19 of using her AI Mila, the agent offered three beginner low-impact workout options built around her garage equipment — she did all three — and keeps weekday workout reminders running.

He rebuilt a speech pathologist’s 15 year old scoring spreadsheet as a web app in one afternoon
A family member who works as a speech pathologist scored a 70 question assessment in a 15 year old spreadsheet full of macros. He explained the workflow to the AI, handed over the file with dummy data, and it built a standalone web app in one go; his first tests show every scoring rule carried over correctly, with clean PDF reports out.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
He built an app with AI to keep his own lab reports and watch the trends over years
A man tired of losing his medical lab reports across emails and clinic portals built MedicalHistory.app with AI, first for himself. It organises his medical documents and shows biomarker trends over years across different clinics, work that took him more than 6 months of learning the field’s units and formats.
The AI turned my workout notes into a gym page on my phone
He dictated his training to the AI: the exercises, sets, and weights. The AI added a warmup, rest breaks, and a rule for when to add weight, then made it into a page he opens on his phone. It took about 15 minutes and he installed nothing.
I built a home app with AI to track meals and carbs for me and my wife
Since April he has logged meals and counted carbs in Google Sheets, and helps his wife do the same. He spent an AI session building a home app to make the logging simpler, shorter and more fun.
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.
File my HSA receipts from my inbox and photos
An AI files its owner’s HSA-eligible receipts from his inbox or from photos, naming each file with the dollar amount and payee so reimbursement is ready to claim. The naming discipline is the product: every receipt lands claim-ready.
Coach my running from my real Garmin and Strava data
A runner replaced uploading Garmin screenshots into AI with a self-hosted agent on a Mac mini that reads his Garmin data (sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, VO2 trend, laps) through MCP plus his Strava uploads: it messages him at 8am, designs the day's run and writes it to Garmin Connect, then grades each session against the prescription when it lands on Strava and decides when training load goes up. He hit his sub-20-minute 5K goal about a month later, and it saves him the hour a week he used to spend planning.
