What they did

When did you last compare your car insurance? This user had their Grok Bot read their current policy, and it found a cheaper plan. Now it checks every 3 months and says if anything cheaper or with better cover comes up. The same bot also wrote and sent a letter to a company's head office about a bad experience with an employee while they drove away.

How it went

A cheaper plan now and a quarterly check that only pings you when it's worth it.

Worth knowing

  • One Reddit comment, no dollar figures. Quote sites may ask for a phone number and call you, so use a spare email or number. Compare cover line by line, not just price.

Prompt

Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.

Here's my car insurance policy. Summarize my cover, limits and deductible. Find [3] quotes with the same or better cover and tell me the yearly saving. Then set a routine: every 3 months, check again and message me only if something is at least [$X] a year cheaper or clearly better. Don't buy or cancel anything without me.

Check a hospital bill against what Medicare would pay

A writer gave Claude the coded hospital claim (UB-04) for his late brother-in-law's $195,628 ER bill and asked it to build a spreadsheet of Medicare rates per code. Claude flagged bundled items billed separately, a bypass charge for a procedure that never happened, and a ventilation charge Medicare does not allow.
