This is the "what should I try" page. Every recipe below works in today's product, uses one message (or one playbook), and ends with something real: a deck in your library, drafts in your Gmail, a new product in your catalog. Prompts are patterns, not scripts — keep the shape (goal + source + output format) and use your own words.
Each recipe lists what it needs. Most need a connector — connecting takes about a minute; see the connector setup guides.
For Founders and CMOs
1. Inbox triage without handing over the keys
Needs: Gmail connected.
"Find the threads in my inbox waiting on a reply from me, summarize each, and draft responses for the two most urgent."
You'll see "Going through your inbox", then summaries, then an approval card — "MorningAI wants to use Create a draft from Gmail" — before any draft is written. You walk away with drafts sitting in Gmail, ready for you to review and send yourself. The agent is structurally incapable of sending; the safety story is the demo.
2. Ask your customers before you ship the campaign
Needs: CustomerDNA personas set up.
"We're considering the tagline 'Fuel for your 5am.' Honest reaction? What would make you scroll past it?"
Open chat, switch to the Customer Insights tab, pick a persona, and ask. You get an in-character critique from a researched persona built on your own customer data — repeatable across every persona in your CustomerDNA. See customer research with chat.
3. Meeting scheduled, prep in hand
Needs: Google Calendar and Gmail connected.
"Find 30 minutes next week that works for a call with our distributor, put a hold on my calendar, and prep a one-pager from our last email thread with them."
Three systems, one conversation: "Checking your calendar" → suggested times → an approval card for Create an event → "Going through your inbox" → a file card for the prep doc. You approve the calendar write; everything else is reading.
4. Competitor scan on demand
Needs: nothing — web research is always on.
"Research what [competitor] has launched or announced in the last quarter and give me a one-page brief with sources."
You watch the live research activity — "Searching…", "Reading {domain}", favicons of the sources consulted — and walk away with a sourced brief you can export as a file. The research happens inside the same conversation that knows your positioning, so it can turn straight into a branded deliverable.
For Ecommerce and Brand Managers
5. Last month's store performance, as a deck
Needs: Shopify connected.
"Pull my store's sales for last month, chart revenue by week, and build me a 6-slide deck for Monday's team meeting."
Progress chips walk through "Reading your store" → "Building the chart" → "Generating file"; a live file card assembles the deck; clicking it previews slides in-thread. Follow-up edits ("add a slide on top customers") revise the same deck. You walk away with a branded .pptx in your file library, speaker notes included — and you never exported a CSV or formatted a slide.
6. Launch a product into the catalog from a conversation
Needs: ProductDNA catalog (built in) — no connector.
"Add our new 'Citrus Burst' flavor to the catalog — same details as 'Berry Blast' but citrus positioning — and generate a hero image using our product style."
The output is catalog state, not text: a real ProductDNA entry with variants and an attached image, immediately usable in Studio briefs, Done For You, and future conversations. The agent does the data entry.
7. The spreadsheet nobody wants to build
Needs: Shopify or Google Analytics connected.
"Give me a spreadsheet of top customers this quarter vs last, with a sheet per period and a summary tab."
A real .xlsx with multiple sheets lands in your file library from a one-line request. No export-upload-format loop — the data pipeline is native.
For Content and SEO Leads
8. An SEO content plan from your actual search data
Needs: Search Console connected.
"Look at my top search queries and page performance, find the gaps where we get impressions but few clicks, and draft a content plan to fix the top five."
Generic tools guess at keywords; this reads your Search Console. The plan is grounded in your site's real queries, optionally cross-checked against the live web for what's ranking now, and exportable as a document.
9. From a rough Drive doc to a client-ready branded PDF
Needs: Google Drive connected.
"Read the proposal notes doc in my Drive called 'Acme kickoff' and turn it into a polished proposal PDF in our brand style."
The agent reads the file where it lives and outputs a designed document — your brand's colors and typography applied automatically — previewable in-thread and saved to the library. Not markdown you reformat somewhere else.
10. Brainstorm promotional ideas that already know your brand
Needs: nothing.
"We need a fun back-to-school campaign for our beverage line. Give me five ideas, then develop the strongest one for email and Instagram."
No context-pasting: the ideas arrive already shaped by your BrandDNA voice and catalog. @-mention a persona to aim them at a specific audience, ask follow-ups to remix ("more playful", "as a limited-time bundle"), and attach old promo examples for the agent to learn from.
For the Whole Team
Bonus: the weekly performance recap everyone runs
Needs: Google Analytics and Search Console connected; a playbook (set up once).
Create a playbook once — pick Describe it and type "Summarize weekly traffic, top pages, and top search queries; flag anything unusual; end with three actions." Set visibility to Everyone on the team. From then on, any teammate types / and runs it whenever a recap is due — same structure every week, regardless of who ran it, with the data arriving live. See the playbooks guide.
