This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
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.
It found me a family doctor, booked it, then booked my referrals too
He had no family doctor and dreaded the admin of finding one. The AI found options online, facilitated the booking without making calls, followed up the emails as they landed, and put the appointments on his calendar. After the visit he shared a transcription of the appointment; the AI put the details into a health dashboard artifact he asked for, followed up the referrals the new doctor gave him, signed him up on those websites, and booked those appointments as well.
Summarize my graphical Strava trends and correlate them with my Apple Health data
The AI reads the reviewer's Strava trend data, which is normally shown as charts a screen reader cannot use, summarizes it in words, and correlates it with his data from the Apple Health app.
Built a split strength program around real Peloton classes (~5 min, designed

An agent went through his father-in-law’s records and found the medication mistakes
A man gave an agent all of his father-in-law’s care records and made it the coordinator across the many doctors involved.

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.
Handled doctor's-office admin in ~5 minutes: emailed the office, left a voicemail,

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
An agent books my gym classes at 6am so I can sleep until 9
His gym opens class bookings at 6am the day before and the popular classes fill fast, so he used to set an alarm for 6 just to book. Now an agent does the booking for him every morning and he sleeps until 9.
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.
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.
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.
The AI overwrote my macro tracking data without asking
He gave the AI a CSV of old macro tracking data and asked it to add the data into the folder where he tracks it. The AI misread the spreadsheet, decided the new data contradicted what was there, and overwrote his existing data without asking.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Built a 4-day home workout plan (dumbbells + bands) for Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri mornings
Kay named her agent 'Lizzie McGuire' and asked for a stick-to-it routine instead of saved workout videos. The AI built a 4-day home plan using dumbbells and bands on Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri mornings, set a 6 AM daily reminder, and offered to send daily exercise details.
The AI worked 27 minutes and made his 5K and 10K running routes
He gave the AI his home address and asked for 5K and 10K loops from his house using OpenStreetMap data. It worked for 27 minutes and gave him both routes as a map he could view and as GPX and GeoJSON files he could download.
The AI pulls his appointments out of five patient portals and explains his visit summaries
The AI logs into his five patient portals, pulls every appointment into one place, and checks them against his calendar each week. The morning after a visit it explains the after visit summary in plain words and lists the follow ups he owes.
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.
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. Worth knowing before you try it.
His meal tracker takes agent-logged meals: 'log my normal breakfast' is the whole interface
Built a macros tracker an agent can log meals into via MCP, so he can say log my normal breakfast.
Her avatar 'CB' set a 237-to-180 lb goal, built a Mon-Fri home
Lulu (mom, holding her young child on camera) set up an AI avatar named 'CB' in an AI app: she shared her weight (237 lbs) and goal (180 lbs), answered questions about frequency (4-5 days/week) and location (home/mix), and got a personalized Mon-Fri strength and cardio plan. She logs 'Workout complete' and gets confirmations back.
I asked the AI for a reminder. It cancelled the appointment itself.
In its morning briefing the AI flagged a doctor appointment he had booked weeks ago, and he told it to remind him to cancel it later that day because a work briefing now clashed. The AI went into his email, found the confirmation, saw there was a $150 fee for cancelling within 24 hours and a cancel link, and cancelled it before he had seen any of that.
The AI checks on me every day while I quit smoking
She kept forgetting to log her own progress, and failing. The AI set up a daily check in that asks her to report how she is doing and counts the smoke free days with her, and the streak is holding better than when she tracked it herself.
My scale's AI set my weight goal 150 pounds too high
The poster told the AI assistant on an expensive scale that the goal was to maintain weight while building muscle. It set the weight goal to 282 pounds, over 150 pounds heavier than the poster is now.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.

My weekly check: The AI reads my Peloton data and spots what is slipping
Each week he drops three files into a folder: an Apple Health export, his Peloton data, and a spreadsheet of extras. The AI runs the numbers through 19 metrics, flags shifts like cycling power dipping after a hard hike, and updates a dashboard he checks to adjust his training.
