Per the ai-first.fr writeup of the video: 'He gave it his card statements and his inbox, and the agent found a $200 the AI Max subscription he had stopped using, then cancelled it in the browser.' Reviewer says the AI saves him ~$1,000/month.
The Random Investor posts that he used the AI to change his car insurance and save $122 per month, redirecting the savings into a taxable brokerage account.

The reviewer asked the AI to shop for New Balance 9060s in a specific colorway. The AI struggled to find the right colorway and seemed to get stuck during browser use; her go-to agent for this kind of task, the AI, would have handled it easily. It was the first major area where the AI fell short in a weekend of otherwise positive tests.

New York Times journalist Eli Tan (who nicknamed his AI 'Wren') asked the AI to sort his emails, assemble his fantasy football team, and 'fiercely negotiate for a ceramic piece with a local artisan.' He called it 'the most useful app [he's] ever used.'
