Use a cloud agent to review a large document set
A writer had Dot work through a huge PDF review on its own cloud computer and keep going across interruptions.
- What they did
- The writer handed Dot a document-checking task that covered hundreds of PDFs and thousands of pages. Instead of treating it like a short session, Dot ran on its own cloud computer and kept its place over several days. When the writer asked a follow-up question, it checked other material, adjusted its understanding, and then returned to the original packet without needing the task rebuilt.
- How it went
- The main benefit was continuity: the review stayed alive as a multi-day job and survived interruptions. The writer did not share completion counts or quality measures, and said their view came from about a day of testing.
- Tips
- This seems most useful when the work is too large to finish in one sitting. Keep in mind the writer was unsure how usage is counted for Dot, background agents, or launched tasks.
Try it yourself with Dots
I need you to review a large set of documents on your cloud computer. Look through [folder/link] for [specific issues to check], and keep a running list of what you’ve already covered. If you hit a question that could change your approach, pause and ask me before continuing. Do not make any edits, deletions, or submissions until I approve them. When you finish, give me one summary per document plus a short overall report.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
