Developer builds Grok Bot that turns trip-planning emails into itinerary pages
A developer shares a Grok Bot that detects travel plans in email, creates an itinerary page, collects flight and hotel receipts, generates todos and sends proactive reminders, and can book or cancel via its browser.
One of the best/most useful AI automations I made is a Grok Bot that watches my emails and detects when I've started planning a trip. It creates an itinerary page for that trip, automatically starts absorbing flights, hotels, receipts etc. and maintains a running list of todos based on everything it knows about me (like booking a dog sitter, clearing conflicting calendar events while I'm away, etc). Over the last week, Grok Bot's proactivity has been super useful at giving me daily nudges on the things I need to confirm/book/cancel. For annoying things I don't want to do, Grok Bot can use its browser to finish tasks on my behalf. And of course I can share the page with my wife, or her agent can connect to it and also pull from her emails to keep the itinerary up to date...it's great. Highly recommend.
