Investor Deedy shares a hands-on agent win: after his Oct 4 US-bound flight from Europe was delayed 6 hours, he texted the Instinct AI assistant, which cited EU regulation 261/2004 (€600 owed for >3hr long-haul delays). The agent drafted the email, chatted with a Delta rep to verify eligibility, and monitored his inbox — Delta approved on day 21 (Oct 26) and $675.27 cash landed Nov 3. He calls it a rare product experience delivering infinite value for $0, and walks through the full timeline.
