Holdy logged the AI into his medical provider's portal and had it pull his itemized bills and question every line. It found several cases of double billing, asked for discounts, and has saved him over $4,000 so far.
The founder of the Gym Commitment app connected the AI to it through a custom MCP server so the AI works as the trainer inside the app. In a real test, a user described his goal and schedule, the AI asked up to 12 questions, searched 1,872 exercises, and pushed a 4 day plan to his phone in about 5 minutes, only after he approved it.
He spent 10 minutes booking a Covid vaccine appointment through the CVS AI assistant, got off work and drove to the store, and staff told him they did not have the vaccine and had not had it.
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.
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.
The AI handled the user's medication refill end to end: messaging the doctor through the portal, getting the approval email, and placing the pharmacy order.
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.
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.
A 14 person dental practice on Daniel Island had $612,000 of diagnosed treatment that patients had never booked, and the staff's own AIs (six the AI, four the AI, two the AI) now read each day's patient notes every evening, offer open slots to the longest waiting patients and book on a yes. Of the $612,000, $188,000 of work is done and $241,000 more is booked, and same month bookings rose from 38 percent to 71 percent.
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.
When every Oura MCP server turned out unmaintained, the AI suggested a simpler design - a SQLite database with a cron sync - and built it. Now he's experimenting with injecting his sleep score into his agents' startup, so they give simpler, less demanding responses on days he's not all there, down to gentler perfume samples.
Aggie Lal (verified, 1.7M followers), a mom, asked her AI 'Munchkin' to process her ~14,000 saved Instagram posts. The AI identified themes (high-protein recipes, parenting, postpartum recovery) and generated organized PDFs: 'Saved Recipes' (Protein Power Bowls, Cottage Cheese Everything, crediting original creators) and 'Parenting Tips'.
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.
Grupo Marista uses AI Enterprise agents to analyze hospital claims. Analysis that took 72 hours now takes 4 hours.
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.
He sends his RingConn 3 wearable data to his AI email address. It sends back a dashboard and tips to improve his health.
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.
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 reviewed roughly 1,000 pages of the user's medical records spanning eight years and surfaced the relevant tests and medications for the user's AFib care team.
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.
Pavuluri Gopikrishna had the AI build a photo-based calorie tracker, then cancelled his paid calorie-tracking subscription because the agent-built one replaced it. The build-to-cancel pattern shows the AI replacing a recurring SaaS cost.
X poster someone set up an AI morning digest that links blood-glucose data from Apple Health to food spending pulled from Plaid and DoorDash emails.
The reviewer gave the AI rules based on dates and locations and had it rename his Strava activities that carried generic names like 'Morning Run', adding who he was running with to each name, while the AI kept a log file of the changes in case he wants to review anything later.
Same reel as the recipes row: Aggie Lal's AI agent 'Munchkin' summarized her ~14,000 saved Instagram posts and generated a second PDF, 'Parenting Tips', covering postpartum recovery, mom fitness, and breastfeeding nutrition.
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.
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.
The AI books the user's tennis club clinics and pays for them, keeping the user's regular sessions in place without weekly admin.
Cronometer raised its price, so he had the AI build a full clone with food search and nutrition data from the USDA database. It took about 20 minutes and he uses it instead of paying.
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.
X poster someone had the AI do doctor's-office admin in about 5 minutes: it emailed the doctor's office, left a voicemail, filled out new-patient paperwork, and created a calendar entry.
