Use Case: Personal Assistant

Use DMJBot as a personal assistant that keeps on top of your inbox, files, and messages — and quietly handles the repetitive parts of your day so you don't have to.

What it looks like

Connect the tools you already use — for example Gmail (or any email), Slack, Dropbox, and a File Storage folder on your laptop. From then on you can simply ask, in plain language:

"Check my inbox and give me the three emails that actually need a reply today."

"Draft a polite reply to the email from Maria saying I'll have the numbers by Friday."

"Save the attachment from that last email to my Dropbox Receipts folder."

"Summarize what happened in the #project-atlas Slack channel since yesterday."

Let it run on its own

Beyond answering on demand, DMJBot can handle things automatically with assignments:

  • Morning briefing"Every weekday at 8:00, summarize my unread important emails and my calendar for the day."
  • Triage as mail arrives"When a new email arrives about an invoice, save the attachment to my Invoices folder and tell me the amount and due date."
  • Never miss a mention"When someone mentions me in Slack, send me a short summary here."

Why DMJBot fits this

  • It connects to your real tools, so it acts on actual emails, files, and messages — not just chat. → Tools and MCP
  • It can move files between services for you (e.g. email attachment → Dropbox) without you downloading and re-uploading. → Files and Attachments
  • It works while you don't — on a schedule or when something happens. → Assignments
  • Nothing is exposed unless you connect it, and you stay in control of every tool. → Core Features
