- User @JosephDevoy uploaded his auto insurance policy to Muse and asked for an identical-coverage better rate; in 5 minutes the agent found a policy saving $3,500/year, purchased it, and canceled the old one.
- He says he'd abandoned several switch attempts because insurance sites and aggregators are painful. Garry Tan amplified the post with a Geico-style joke, calling it a killer use case for autonomous agents handling tedious purchases.
