What they did

When a Shopify bill arrives, the author messages Hermes Agent in Telegram: check email for the latest Shopify bill, download it, add it to the Xero AXIS account, and mark it paid from the ST director account. What used to take about five minutes of manual download/entry becomes a ~30-second chat. Video of the run is attached.

How it went

Author frames this as how they actually run bookkeeping (invoices, bills, reconciliation). ~5 min manual work → ~30 sec via Telegram. Video evidence; no independent audit

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.

Hermes Agent Nearly Doubled Speech-to-Text Accuracy on Hard Words: 99 to 183 of 240

A user turned his 15K saved Wispr Flow dictations into a test set for the local Whisper model behind his Hermes Agent. The agent turned his Wispr dictionary into a hint list, diffed raw vs corrected text to find words Whisper keeps mishearing, made find-and-fix rules, and tested every rule against the full history. With no fine-tuning, dictionary words went from 99/240 to 183/240 on Wispr clips and 19/45 to 43/45 on sentences he read aloud. It now archives the data nightly and looks for new fixes weekly.
