Agent Sightings Real agent use cases

Complete online surveys for free stuff

Case study takeaway: the poster says they had a Grok bot handle a Burger King receipt survey after getting a code on the receipt. They gave the bot the task, and about 30 minutes later it messaged back a link to download the coupon for the free Whopper; the post does not describe any other setup or human steps. It worked once: the bot completed the survey and returned the free-coupon link.

How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Grok Bot or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Finance task: complete online surveys for free stuff. Tabulate numbers, mark uncertainties, and do not file, pay, or submit until I confirm.

Tip: Keep the agent in 'propose, don't pay' mode: let it gather numbers and draft messages, and approve any payment or account change yourself.
