What they did
A small business owner gave Grok Bot read access to Slack, email, Google Calendar and read-only QuickBooks Online, then asked it to compare the jobs the company did against what it actually invoiced. Within 30 minutes it found $5,000 of work across 3 jobs from earlier in the year that had never been billed.
How it went

Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Audit my business for work we did but never billed. You have read-only access to [QuickBooks / my invoicing tool], plus my [email, calendar and team chat]. 1) Build a list of every job or appointment we did from [start date] to today, using the calendar, emails and chat. 2) Match each job to an invoice. 3) Show me a table of jobs with no invoice, or an invoice for less than the work described, with the date, client, evidence and your best estimate of what's owed. Don't create, send or change any invoices. Just give me the list to review.
