What they did
A tutor built a Lindy agent to handle inquiries for her tutoring business: wait for booking and payment confirmations, then reply and schedule.
How it went
It booked and rescheduled sessions with Meet links, but kept replying in the wrong email thread (a privacy risk), couldn't actually see her calendar availability even though it claimed it could, and got dates wrong. She says these flaws rule it out for anything high-risk.
Worth knowing
- Run in draft mode and check threading before letting it email clients.
- Don't trust the agent's claims about its own access. Test them.
Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
When a new tutoring inquiry arrives, wait [1 hour] for a booking and payment confirmation. If both exist, draft a confirmation in the same thread with the session time and link. Never propose times; send me anything unclear.
