Agentic example

One update a day, not a full inbox to manage.

Agentic examples · Markus

A conversation is free.
£199 buys the Working Diagnosis - the plan for your version of this.
Building and running it starts from £399/month.

A calendar full of half-confirmed meetings. An inbox that needs sorting before you can even start the actual work. Most people don't need more things watching their day - they need someone to tell them, once, clearly, what's actually in it.

That's what a personal-assistant agent is for. It reads your calendar and inbox, works out what actually matters, and hands it to you in one place, once a day.

Phase 1 - gathering, quietly, in the background

Step 1

Reads your calendar and inbox

What's confirmed, tentative, or still unanswered.

Step 2

Drafts the boring replies

"Yes, that time works" - readied, not sent.

Step 3

Spots the clashes

Double-bookings, no-agenda meetings, stale replies.

1. It reads your calendar and inbox. What's confirmed, what's tentative, what's a meeting request nobody's answered yet.

2. It drafts the boring replies. "Yes, that time works," "Can we do Thursday instead" - readied, not sent.

3. It spots the clashes. Two things booked over each other, a meeting with no agenda, a reply that's been sitting for three days - the stuff you'd only notice by scrolling.

Phase 2 - one update, at a time you choose

Step 4

One message, once a day

At 8am, or whenever actually suits you.

Step 5

Drafts ready when you want them

One tap to send, or edit, or ignore.

Step 6

Nothing moves without you

The agent proposes. It never confirms on your behalf.

4. One message, once a day. At 8am, or whenever actually suits you - not a stream of pings all day, one clear rundown of what's on, what needs a reply, and what's building up.

5. Drafts are ready when you want them. The "yes, that time works" reply sends with one tap if it's right - or you edit it, or ignore it, same as any email you'd write yourself.

6. Nothing gets booked, moved, or sent without you. A meeting only goes in the calendar once you've said yes. The agent proposes. It never confirms on your behalf.

Why one update, not constant notifications

It would be easy to have this ping you every time something happens. That's not calmer - it's just noisier admin instead of a noisier inbox. The point is fewer interruptions, not more: one clear moment a day where you know exactly where things stand, and you decide what happens next.

Worth saying plainly: this is shown as a simple version. The same pattern can be built simple or pushed a lot further - more sources it watches, more it can draft, more it checks before handing back to you - depending on what your business actually needs.

Wondering if this needs new software first? Usually not - here's how that actually works.

What the £199 buys, and what it doesn't

The Working Diagnosis buys the plan for your version of this - which calendar, which inbox, what time of day actually works for you, and what "important" should mean for your business. Not the build itself. The report is yours to keep either way. If we go further, the £199 is credited off the first invoice.

If your calendar or inbox is running you instead of the other way round, send a note. I reply myself, usually within a working day. We'll work out whether this is worth doing for your business. Happy to talk after 6pm or at a weekend if that works better around the job - within reason, I'll fit round you.

Send a note - I reply within a day
