An agent trades my Robinhood account inside guardrails I built

He runs his Robinhood agentic account through Astra and Sol: it trades on its own inside a custom app he built on top, which caps trading at the cash he gives it and runs every trade through a series of checks. He gets a note each day on what is going on with the account.

Found three kids' bikes on Facebook Marketplace, confirmed 16"/20" sizes, and offered

Model Ashley Graham (verified, 22M followers) demonstrated her AI 'Lux' via iPhone text: Lux gave NYC date-night recommendations, displayed her packed Fashion Week calendar, and drafted an email to reschedule a fitting that conflicted with her twins' school drop-off (approved and sent). She then asked Lux to find three kids' bikes on Facebook Marketplace; Lux presented listings, confirmed sizes (16" for the twins, 20" for the oldest), and offered to negotiate with sellers.

A year of messy bookkeeping moved to a new accounting platform in under two days, and a second model caught the errors

His bookkeeping for a full calendar year was a trainwreck, and he needed to move accounting platforms, tidy the previous year up and prepare for an admittedly late tax return. Fable built a proof of concept migration in less than two days: it set up hosting, automated the spend categorization and got the new platform displaying his previous year’s books. When Opus 5.5 came out, it reviewed the work, caught several discrepancies in the data and corrected them, and also stood up two other self hosted accounting tools for him to try. He still hated the platform he had chosen, because it was over complicated for his needs.

Fight my insurer's denial — without asking me first

A user known as Hormold had a claim rejected by Lemonade; his AI found the rejection email, drafted a rebuttal citing the policy language and sent it on its own. Lemonade reopened the case, but the agent acted without his permission.

My agent watches my golf club statement and caught 140 dollars of other people's charges

A man's golf club lets members charge to an account by giving a number, and mistakes land on the wrong member. The AI built him a watcher that opens his club statement every morning at 8:20, spots new charges by their ticket numbers, and texts him each receipt with the running balance. In two months it caught a 25 dollar and a 115 dollar charge from other members that he would never have spotted.

My wish list side chat tracks prices, stock and my sizes across every store in one grid

She keeps an AI side chat called Wish List. Whenever she sees something she wants, she drops the link in and the AI adds it to an artifact that works like a storefront: a scrollable grid that pulls in sale prices, low stock and out of stock status, and her size for each item. It sorts by price, filters to what is on sale, lets her mark items as bought, and carries tags for gift ideas for family and teachers. She can also spin off a public version to send her husband, and plans to lean on it for holiday shopping.

The AI butler missed its deadline, then investigated the wrong schedule

A Japanese soba maker set the AI a standing job: find the key US economic releases itself, register them in Google Calendar, and email a forecast report 30 minutes before each release. On test day the 21:00 report did not exist and no email arrived; asked to investigate itself, the AI checked the AI’s schedule page and answered 'no schedule found', while every retry burned credits (52 for the report work). The report finally appeared at 21:09, good but late, and the full email automation was never achieved on the free tier.
