Built a custom GPT to help colleagues at BeZero draft their annual performance reviews. Most people find the blank page problem genuinely hard — they know what they've done, but translating it into structured, credible self-assessment is slow and uncomfortable.

• Trained on BeZero's competency framework and review format so outputs matched what reviewers actually expected.
• Prompted to ask clarifying questions before generating — so it produced something specific, not generic.
• Surfaced quickly and adopted informally across the team with no formal rollout.

A narrow, well-scoped GPT beats a general one almost every time. The constraint makes it useful. The team adopted it because it saved real time on a task everyone dreads.

My local pilates studio releases class bookings at a fixed time each week. Popular slots fill in under two minutes. I was consistently missing them — so I automated the problem away.

• Built a script that monitors the booking system and registers for target classes the moment they open.
• Runs on a schedule so it requires zero manual intervention on booking day.
• Has a near-perfect booking success rate for classes that were previously impossible to get.

The best automation is the kind you forget you built. I haven't manually booked a class in months. It also turned out to be a good excuse to get more comfortable with browser automation and scheduling infrastructure.
