ThoughtSpot launched AgentSpot (22 Oct): describe a job in plain English, it builds an agent or scheduled workflow, and the whole team can reuse it. Pay per job done, not per seat.

Cleaning, hotels, retail: a good weekly report stops living in one person's head.

@elonmusk There’s alway a reason ordinary people only know what the general news gives them , the narrative they have been told to share !

Job marked done. But did the fix work?

Clockworks' new Sprocket AI (23 Oct) flags finished building maintenance jobs where the fault is still showing, and links each answer to the data behind it.

Facilities, hotels, schools: who checks the fix stuck?

Stripe now lets AI agents work a business bank account: check balances, pay invoices, move funds, with you choosing when a human must approve.

Handy for a cleaning contractor paying subbies, a café clearing supplier bills, a trades crew.

Agent preps, you sign off.

AI that listens and writes the notes: M42's new Ossi platform (22 Oct) drafts clinic notes from the consult for doctors to review, so eyes stay on the patient.

Same idea fits shift handovers, incident reports and site walkthroughs. AI drafts, a person signs.

Burro's Grande 44 robot is now shipping: it works outdoors on its own and can tow, carry loads, mow, spray and patrol. Handy for vineyards at harvest, nurseries moving plants all day, and depot or industrial yards. Which outdoor job would you hand over first?

Shoppers are sending AI agents to do the shopping. BigCommerce stores now let a shopper's browser agent search products, check prices and fill a cart, while checkout stays on the store's own site.

If an agent visited your site today, could it read your prices and stock?

Paylocity's new AI agents text applicants back, run screening questions, book interviews and resurface past applicants. Useful for cleaning crews, venues and warehouses, where good people go quiet fast. Same idea as iQCheckPoint: less admin, more time on site.

Hotel staff can now ask their property system questions in plain English via AI assistants (roommaster AI Connector, 20 Oct).

Venues, sites and cleaning teams want the same: "who's on tonight?" in seconds.

iQCheckPoint rosters and timesheets are built to give that answer.

New this week: Rayove Watch, a smartwatch that translates two-way conversations from your wrist in 73 languages, in under a second.

Handy for hotel front desks, building sites and factory floors where crews speak different languages. No passing a phone around.

AI is starting to ring restaurants on diners' behalf. Yelp's new "Check for Me" phone agent calls to ask the wait time, then texts the answer back.

For venues, whoever picks up needs a quick, accurate answer. Is your front-of-house ready for a bot on the line?

[Dan @dan_evolution]

Standard Bots now lets factory workers set up a robot by describing the job on an iPad. No code, no integrator. Big for small job shops, food packing changeovers and warehouses. Same idea as iQAuditor: the people on site run it. Who sets up your automation?

[iQCheckPoint - Ultimate Workforce Solution @iQCheckPoint]

New tech needs time, not just a login.

A Gold Coast Health study found the top reason clinicians hadn't tried their hospital's AI scribe was lack of time (53.8%), not unease with new tools (15.4%).

Same for kitchens, building sites and FM teams. Budget the hour to learn it.

[Dan @dan_evolution]

Google Cloud's new Gemini agent (8 Oct) takes a job, not a list of steps. Bunnings saved staff half a million admin hours; Tata Steel cut complaint turnaround 50%. Same idea as iQAuditor: less admin, more done on site. What would you hand off first?

[iQCheckPoint - Ultimate Workforce Solution @iQCheckPoint]

Big weekend at the venue. Then Monday: who gets what from the tips?

Tips are part of pay. iQCheckPoint timesheets log hours, breaks and overtime automatically and compute wages including tips, so it's not a separate spreadsheet job.

[Dan @dan_evolution]

Samsara's new Agent Studio (13 Oct): on its platform, voice agents overtook chat within four weeks. Makes sense. Frontline crews have gloves on, not keyboards.

Lesson for ops: give site instructions on arrival, and capture what happened on the way out.

A lot of rosters still get built on Sunday night at the kitchen table.

In iQCheckPoint you schedule shifts and assign tasks with drag-and-drop, and gaps go out as open shifts your team can claim. Get your Sunday back.

From 10 Dec, Privacy Act-covered businesses must say in their privacy policy when software makes, or substantially helps make, big decisions about people. It says "computer program", not just AI.

Start now: list your tools, ask vendors what they decide.
