How the agent did it
- The author asked OpenClaw to find local suppliers for a shower-glass job.
- OpenClaw sent emails, collected supplier responses and managed follow-up in the chat thread.
- The author reviewed domain-specific details and kept the decision and any order under human control.
Getting quotes for a home project can involve finding local suppliers, describing the job, tracking replies and asking follow-up questions. The X account freeatnet says their first useful non-code OpenClaw experiment handled that loop for shower glass: it researched suppliers in the area, sent emails, collected responses and managed back-and-forth in a chat thread.
The follow-up posts add an important boundary. The author says the workflow needed substantial oversight on domain-specific details and that they would not trust the agent to place an order. That makes this a practical example of delegating the paperwork around a home improvement job while keeping technical judgment and purchasing with a person. The account does not name the suppliers, quote prices, describe the shower measurements or report a chosen vendor, so this is evidence of quote gathering rather than a completed installation or demonstrated savings.
For a similar task, provide a clear project description and ask the agent to present each supplier’s response side by side. Review the measurements, glass specifications, installation assumptions and exclusions yourself. Do not treat a gathered quote as a validated recommendation or authorize an order without checking the details.
