Weekly household bill audit that only pings for decisions
Reads your household bill emails each week and compares each bill with its own history. Rate hikes, double charges and jumpy renewals get an alert and a draft letter. Expected changes go into a quiet weekly digest.
What it does
- Pulls amount, period and usage from each bill email
- Compares the bill with past bills from the same company
- Alerts on rate hikes, duplicate charges and big renewal jumps
- Drafts a dispute, refund or re-quote letter for each alert
- Logs everything else in a weekly digest
Your approval boundaries
Approval requiredThese actions always wait for your yes:
- Sending any dispute, refund or re-quote letter
- Cancelling or switching any service
You decide what happens next.
More about this workflow
This setup is for busy people who want their own day to run a little smoother. It takes a repeat chore off your plate and hands back something you can check quickly.
First, it pulls amount, period and usage from each bill email. Next, it compares the bill with past bills from the same company. Then it alerts on rate hikes, duplicate charges and big renewal jumps. After that, it drafts a dispute, refund or re-quote letter for each alert. Finally, it logs everything else in a weekly digest. It works with your email, database and docs, each on its own login with limited access.
You get the prep work done and waiting for you. The agent stops and asks for your yes before sending any dispute, refund or re-quote letter and cancelling or switching any service, and says plainly if a step cannot be undone.

Steps
Do these in order. Test on old data before it touches live work.
- 1Connect Gmail with its own login, not yours. Grant read-only plus compose (drafts) scopes.
- 2Connect Supabase with its own login, not yours. Grant a role limited to one table.
- 3Connect Google Docs with its own login, not yours. Grant one folder, create and edit only.
- 4Paste the prompt where your harness takes instructions. See the note under the Copy button.
- 5Do a dry run on old or test data first. Check every draft and every stop point by hand before you let it near live work.
- 6Read its log after the first real run. Only widen access once a week of runs looks clean.
Safeguards and trust score
The score describes this example setup’s access, approval boundaries, ability to undo changes, and scope.
Can draft things that send or spend, so it sits close to risky actions.
Waits for a yes on: sending any dispute, refund or re-quote letter, cancelling or switching any service.
Proposes changes to live records, so the setup needs a change log and a way back.
Runs on its own login across 3 tools. Fewer connections means a smaller blast radius.
How to raise it
- Access: Take away its ability to send, post or spend. Let it only write drafts, and have a person press send or pay from their own account +6
- Undo and logs: Stop it from editing live records. Have it write the change as a proposal you apply, and keep a log of every change with a way to roll it back +3
- Scope: Cut it down from 3 connected tools to the 2 it needs most, each with its own limited login instead of your full account +2
Do all of these to reach 89, up from 78.
