What they did
A dad of three has his ChatGPT agent check iMessage group chats, BAND, TeamReach, ClassDojo and Gmail four times a day. He gets one short update with only payments due, forms to fill out, what to bring and plans that changed. It filters chatter, removes duplicates, archives reviewed emails, and says when nothing needs him or a source couldn't be checked.
How it went
He gets one short update instead of checking five apps and 50 group-chat pings.

Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Four times a day, check my kids' activity sources: [group chats, team apps, school app, email]. Send me one short update listing only payments due, forms to fill out, what to bring and plans that changed. Skip the chatter, merge duplicates across apps, and archive the emails you've reviewed. If nothing needs me, say so. If you couldn't check a source, tell me which one.
