Agent Sightings Real agent use cases

Use Operator to book tables, compare products and fill forms

Case study takeaway: the poster says they tested ChatGPT Pro’s Operator by giving it tasks on websites such as booking tables, comparing products, filling forms, navigating sites, and logging into services with credentials. In comments they explain it runs in its own Chrome browser, appears to control a mouse in a separate browser pane, and Someone can take over control while assigning sequential website actions like checking Gmail, drafting replies, or purging spam. They describe it as smooth and able to handle web tasks with clear intent, though not perfectly.

Why it matters

Trips involve lots of searching, forms and waiting on hold. This is an example of an agent handling that busywork so the traveller only has to approve the result. It is one of 63 sightings filed under Travel & Booking on Agent Sightings (number 55 by interest), and one of 10 involving Operator.

How you could try it

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

Plan: use Operator to book tables, compare products and fill forms. Compare 2–3 options (cost, timing, tradeoffs), recommend one, and do not book or pay yet.

Tip: Have the agent list options with prices and cancellation rules, and only book once you have said yes to one.
