ChatGPT 6 Astra: 20 Real-World Use Cases Discovered by Global Experts

How much work can we actually delegate to Astra? By researching overseas production demos and practical reports, specific use cases have emerged, ranging from video and 3D to document creation and accounting.

https://x.com/davis7/status/2095742249275699415

In this article, I will introduce 20 use cases and implementation prompts based on them. First, let's look at what I found particularly amazing during my research.

What I Learned: Why Astra is Amazing

You can turn the software you usually use into your workspace

What was particularly impressive this time were the cases where work progressed within production software. For example, organizing footage in Final Cut. In LEGO design software, it researched included parts and opened the assembled model to verify it. X

If you use it for work, you don't just want a finished sample; you want a file you can continue to edit yourself. Fixing subtitles, moving furniture, or changing screen layouts. I felt its practicality in the fact that it creates things to the point where they can be modified after delivery.

It has progressed to opening and reviewing what it created

In Nate Herk's video production, it checked the frames of the exported video and transcribed the finished audio to cross-check it with the script. Production and verification are included in the same request. LinkedIn

Are the characters cut off? Does the audio match the subtitles? If we can delegate the verification of finished files, humans can spend more time on planning and content judgment. Of course, self-inspection alone does not guarantee accuracy.

Large-scale production can be divided into management and implementation

In Matt Shumer's "Manager Loop," the AI that oversees the whole is separated from the AI that creates the specific process. The production of Manhattan took about a week. This is an example of creating an environment to continue long tasks. X

For a website, even while the appearance is being refined, the manager role checks if the application form or purchase flow is complete. This is useful as a design to avoid spending all your time on fine details.

When information is missing, it can point out the deficiency

In Box's evaluation, it pointed out that requested metrics were not in the documents and explicitly provided calculated values as "proxy metrics" instead. It also found discrepancies between document descriptions and actual numbers. Box Blog

When delegating analysis, I'd rather have it show the range of what it knows than force it to fill in desired answers. This report was also impressive for practical use.

These results involve not only Astra but also the connected software and management systems. The following prompts are implementation ideas to try in environments where these can be used. Keep the originals and insert confirmations for sending, publishing, purchasing, deleting, or updating production.

First 10 | Global Examples Found by Grok

1. Create a city where AI lives and have another AI supervise the production

Matt Shumer published a UE5 world where agents talk to each other and the production of Manhattan which took about a week. He also introduced the "Manager Loop" which separates the manager and implementer roles. X

If applied to large-scale sites or educational materials, you can set acceptance criteria for each process. It's a design where the manager catches states like "the top page is finished, but you can't apply."

https://x.com/mattshumer_/status/2095596175705399482

Original posts: World where AI lives / Manhattan production

Please complete [Deliverable] in [Workspace]. If division of labor is available, separate the manager and implementer roles; if not, switch roles. The manager decides the process and acceptance criteria, and only passes the current process to the implementer. Check the actual product for each process and record changes, verifications, and remaining issues. If the same correction continues three times, change the method and prioritize major functions within [Budget Limit]. Deliver the finished product, incomplete items, and resumption procedures.

1. Create 3D models and walkthrough videos from property URLs

Yunfan Ye created a 3D model and walkthrough video from Zillow property photos. He explained that while the video was made with a single instruction, some details different from reality remained. X

To apply this to vacation rentals or real estate introductions, provide photos and floor plans. Have it deliver completions for invisible areas separately from facts.

https://x.com/realYunfanYe/status/2095612137582526615

Original posts: 3D property and video / Author's prompt

From [Property URL/Photos/Floor Plan], create a 3D model editable in Blender and an approximately 60-second introduction video. Reproduce only the rooms that can be verified, and record estimations for dimensions and invisible surfaces. If the connection between rooms is unclear, make it a separate cut instead of creating a fictional hallway. Correct the placement by comparing it with the original photos. Deliver .blend, MP4, used materials, and a list of estimations/discrepancies.

1. Turn room photos into 3D data where furniture can be moved

Tom Krcha created a 3D model editable in Blender from house photos. The shapes were manually adjusted, making it a space that can be moved locally. X

When considering furniture layout, you probably want to move just the sofa. By specifying not just image reproduction but also what you want to edit separately, the post-delivery use becomes clear.

https://x.com/tomkrcha/status/2095598645190291775

Original posts: 3D from house photos / Related: Steam locomotive production

Turn the room in the attached photo into 3D data for furniture layout consideration. Make walls, floors, windows, furniture, and appliances separate objects and give them identifiable names. Create a structure where only furniture can be moved, and simplify invisible parts. Create a comparison image with the original photo and correct the placement. Deliver .blend, preview, parts list, estimated dimensions, and 3 points to fix with priority.

1. Delegate post-shooting material organization, including Final Cut operations

Ben Davis published a case using Computer Use to operate Final Cut, importing footage, adjusting color, and syncing clips. X

For interviews, delegate matching separate audio recordings and organizing materials by camera. This is a way to have AI handle the preparation before the editor decides which statements to keep.

Original post: Editing preparation in Final Cut

Import [Material Folder] into Final Cut and get it ready for the editor to start cutting. Perform material organization, audio sync, and correction of clear color mismatches in the working library. Mark areas where sync is questionable and do not delete materials. Play the timeline to check for audio lag and missing parts. Deliver the editing project and points the editor should check.

1. Turn specialized knowledge into a 5-minute educational video

Derya Unutmaz produced a 5-minute educational video explaining T cells. He also instructed the use of Remotion for video production. X

For internal training, this is an application to take a manual and a person's explanation and turn it into a video for newcomers. Instead of just "easy to understand," decide on one task you want them to be able to do after watching.

https://x.com/DeryaTR_/status/2095659170661904804

Original post: 5-minute T cell educational material

From [Materials], produce an approximately 5-minute educational video on [Theme] for [Target Audience]. The goal after watching is [Task to be able to do]. Structure it in the order of actual scenes, operations, precautions, and review questions, and assemble diagrams, audio, and subtitles. Do not create numbers or examples not in the materials, and check for subtitle cut-offs and explanation mismatches. Deliver MP4, editing data, script, subtitles, and sources.

1. Create a dedicated iPhone app from frustration with standard apps

Paul Solt reported creating an iOS app that displays weekly travel distance in 13 minutes and 3 seconds. However, this was the result of using his "AppCreator" skills. X

While a "health management app" is too broad, if you want to "see weekly totals starting on Saturday," the necessary screens and calculations are determined. This is an example of turning a common frustration into a small app.

https://x.com/PaulSolt/status/2095604728683958295

Original post: iOS app to see weekly travel distance

In Xcode, create an iOS app to view Apple Health weekly and monthly totals. Read only necessary data and display distance and steps starting on Saturday, with previous period comparisons. Distinguish between unacquired and 0, and avoid double counting. Test the aggregation and verify the build and launch in the simulator. Deliver the project, installation steps, test results, and items to check on the actual device.

1. Pick up neglected tasks from inbox and code

Theo posted his experience connecting Gmail and Notion, and also introduced a way to inspect unnecessary implementations in code or stalled fix proposals. X

For emails, it's cases where a reply was promised but not sent. For code, it's unused processes. In both cases, have it provide the basis for judging them as "neglected."

Original posts: Gmail/Notion connection / Code audit / Purchase history organization

Target: [Gmail and Notion / Repository]. Check for incomplete, duplicate, or long-stalled items. For emails, extract promises, deadlines, and next actions from the last 90 days. For code, check for unnecessary processes, performance issues, and unresolved fix proposals. Attach the basis, impact, and proposed response to each item, and select 3 priority cases. Do not send, delete, or integrate code, and separate items that cannot be judged into check items.

1. Cross-reference business records to decide next month's priorities

Riley Brown introduced a prompt to reflect across business, finance, and relationships. X

To apply this, compare goals with actual time allocation. You decided to prioritize a new business, but your schedule is full of adjustments for existing projects. This is a way to inspect such discrepancies from emails and meeting records.

Original post: Prompt to reflect on the whole business

Read [Emails/Minutes/Schedule/Business Materials] from the last 90 days and create a 1-page priority list for next month, this quarter, and this fiscal year. Compare goals and time allocation, progressed projects, and repeated problems. Propose activities to decrease, activities to increase, and 3 actions for next week with basis and deadlines. Do not conclude on people's true intentions; separate records from inferences. Also list information that could not be read and missing materials.

1. Delegate billing reviews, product searches, and site inspections

Greg Isenberg published prompts for billing negotiations, searching for used products, and site inspections. These are usage proposals to try, not reports of results for all cases. X

For billing organization, search for duplicate contracts and price changes, and even create negotiation drafts. However, usage status cannot be known from invoices alone. Separate cancellation candidates from final decisions.

Original post: 9 usage prompts

Execute one of the following tasks: [Billing Organization / Used Product Research / Site Inspection]. For billing, find duplicates and price changes from [Materials] and create a negotiation draft and conditional savings estimate. For products, compare by [Model Number/Region/Budget] including shipping, condition, and missing parts. For sites, check from registration to just before payment at [Test URL] and record problems and reproduction steps. Execute only once this time and deliver the results and re-execution steps.

1. Draw the finished image first and bring the game screen closer to it

Anshu introduced a production procedure where a concept image is prepared first and the game screen is brought closer to it. He reported making a 3D game in about 45 minutes. X

Instead of repeating "more high-end feel," compare the target image with the actual screen. It becomes specific about where to change lighting, color scheme, or camera position, which can also be applied to website production.

https://x.com/anshuc/status/2096008083826725132

Original post: 3D game and production procedure

Produce [Game Idea] in [Execution Environment]. First, create a concept image of the finished screen and fix the standards for color, light, camera, and UI. Implement movement, objectives, success/failure, and restart. Actually operate it, take a screenshot, and correct from 3 points different from the reference image. Up to 3 rounds. Deliver the playable game, source, reference image, final screen, and operation instructions.

Second 10 | Production and Practical Examples Found in Additional Research

1. Complete a YouTube video with your own voice and avatar

Nate Herk delegated research, script, his own voice clone and avatar, and editing in HyperFrames all at once. He explained that he also performed a check by transcribing the finished audio and cross-checking it with the script. LinkedIn

For application to product explanations, connect your authorized voice and avatar. Clearly state that it is an AI appearance and check the content before publishing.

Original post: Nate Herk's production report on LinkedIn

Produce an approximately 5-minute video on [Theme/Target Audience]. Use the voice and avatar authorized by the person and clearly state that it is an AI appearance. Proceed with research, script, subtitles, and editing, and use only materials with usage rights. Check the screen and audio after exporting and cross-check the transcription with the script. Deliver MP4, editing data, subtitles, sources, and description for publishing.

1. Turn product screens into dynamic introduction videos

Daniel Ch reported generating a motion video in 14 minutes and then changing it twice. X

For SaaS or course introductions, provide actual screens and accurate copy. Instead of increasing fictional functions for the sake of appearance, make a structure that shows what happens when you operate what.

Original post: Daniel Ch's motion video

Create a 30-second introduction video from [Product Screen/Logo/Photo]. Structure it in the order of problem, actual operation, result, and [CTA Text]. Do not add non-existent functions or unconfirmed results, and ensure time to read text. Make text and timing editable, and correct text cut-offs and overlaps after exporting. Deliver MP4, editing source, material list, and correction method.

1. An article draft that the editor thought was the author's own writing

Katie Parrott of Every reported that Dan Shipper, the co-founder, thought the first draft Astra wrote with a single instruction was her own writing. Every

For your own writing, provide past articles as style references and current materials as factual bases separately. It's also important not to have it write fictional experiences to mimic the tone.

Source: Katie Parrott's own article

Use my 3 past articles as style references and write an article on [Theme] from the current materials in [Word Count] characters. The reader is [Target Audience]. Refer to vocabulary, paragraphs, and explanation order; analysis explanation is unnecessary. Base facts on the current materials and do not create fictional experiences, conversations, or numbers. Cut general prefaces and repetitions, and deliver the body, sources, and check items separately.

1. Create presentation slides and speaking scripts from research

Matthew Berman created slides with sources and notes for speaking from research. On the other hand, he also wrote that additional instructions were needed for monotonous layouts and margins for talking heads. Signals Forward Future

For training materials, provide the audience and presentation time, as well as the presentation style for the day. This is a request to separate explanations on the screen from content to be supplemented orally.

Source: Matthew Berman's production review

Research [Theme] and create 12 slides and a speaking script for [Audience/Presentation Time]. Match [Brand Materials] and do not place important information in the [Talking Head Position]. Use photos, comparisons, and diagrams appropriately, and attach sources to numbers and examples. Make the notes supplementary explanations rather than a script to be read aloud. Check all pages with images and deliver editable materials, scripts, and sources.

1. From LEGO design to creating a 3D exhibition site

Dominik Kundel had it use BrickLink Studio to create a LEGO bridge. Furthermore, he introduced a site where you can view the model in 3D and receive production files. LinkedIn

This is an application to prepare a model and a place for others to see it. However, being assembled on screen and the actual product being stable are different. Leave unverified items for connection and strength.

Original posts: Dominik Kundel's X article / Author's explanation on LinkedIn

Create a block model of [Theme] and a site where it can be viewed in 3D. Check the parts library and use only existing parts and colors. Inspect for overlaps, floating, and connections, and clearly state unconfirmed strength. Implement rotation/enlargement, parts list, and production file acquisition functions on the site. Deliver model data, assembly order, site source, and launch procedures.

1. Play through a game just by looking at the screen

Clad3815 reported having Astra play Pokémon by showing it the screen without providing internal data or walkthrough information, clearing it in 18 hours and 12 minutes. X

If moved to business, operation tests by looking at the screen are candidates. Don't consider it a success just by clicking; verify the result on the next screen. Change the method when stuck in the same place.

Original post: Clad3815's Pokémon experiment

Advance to [Target State] in [Game/Test App with Usage Permission]. Use only the screen and permitted operations; do not rewrite internal data. Check the result on a new screen after operation and record progress. If the same state continues three times, consider an alternative path. The limit is [Number of Operations]. Deliver the reached screen, operation log, and unresolved items, and do not report failure as success.

1. Operate a desktop display from code

Claire Vo published command operations for Divoom MiniToo and a live display demonstration. This is an example of advancing device coordination she had been trying for some time. Lenny's Newsletter

For application to display schedules or work time, narrow it down to just sending one test image at first. Once connected, add text display and increase functions while looking at the actual device.

Original posts: Claire Vo's review post / Review with demonstration around 18:36

Create a tool to operate a small display of [Model/OS/Connection Method]. Check official materials and display one test image using approved methods. Add text display, image update, and screen clear after success. Do not bypass authentication or change firmware, and add processing for disconnection. Deliver source, installation steps, usage examples, and actual device verification results.

1. Cross-check 41 documents to find errors in financial statements

Legora reported that a dedicated agent cross-checked 41 documents, including draft financial statements, and found all four errors planted for evaluation. OpenAI

For application in accounting, have it leave the compared values and sources. Just saying "there is a problem" means searching again. Indicate the page or cell of the material to narrow down the points for experts to check.

Source: Legora's official implementation case

Verify the period, currency, unit, and version of [Financial Materials], and cross-check major figures, breakdowns, and previous year values. For each discrepancy, record the original value, comparison target, difference, calculation formula, and page/cell. Distinguish between missing, unreadable, and actual discrepancies, and do not rewrite original materials. Deliver the cross-check table, priority check items, and unconfirmed items. Do not treat it as having expert approval.

1. Spot metrics not in materials and consider budget allocation

In Box's evaluation, in a task to consider funding allocation to regions, it pointed out the lack of necessary metrics. It distinguished between proxy metrics and original metrics and also found contradictions between descriptions of growth and numerical values. Box Blog

For advertising budget consideration, output the range that can be compared and materials lacking for profit judgment. This is a request not to force a ranking.

Source: Box's business evaluation

Create a budget allocation proposal for [Region/Product/Acquisition Channel] from [Materials]. Check the definition of comparison metrics and necessary data; do not create non-existent numbers. Clearly state differences and limitations for proxy metrics. Align period and cost range, and cross-check text claims with numerical values. Also check if the ranking changes if assumptions are changed, and deliver the comparison table, proposal, calculation basis, and missing data.

1. Create 3 proposals with different themes from one game

Playco produced three types of prototypes with different themes from a common foundation. In a case with Playbot connecting to Unity, Godot, etc., they reported that manual corrections decreased by 50% compared to previous models. OpenAI

To try it out, fix the operations and rules and compare the appearance. Instead of continuing to polish one proposal, this is a way to proceed by lining up multiple playable proposals and choosing yourself.

Source: Playco's official implementation case

Create 3 proposals for [Theme A/B/C] from [Working Prototype]. Maintain operations, difficulty, and scoring conditions, and change background, models, lighting, and UI. Save original data and test start, operation, end, and restart for each proposal. Measure rendering speed under the same conditions and correct heavy proposals. Deliver 3 playable proposals, source, comparison images, performance, and unresolved items.

If You Try It Next, Give It a Job to Finish This Week

Based on these cases, you'll want to expand the scope of your requests a bit. For a product description video, don't just stop at the script; try asking for an editable video by providing product photos and specifications at hand.

In that case, include checking the match between product name and price, readability of subtitles, and whether non-existent functions are mixed in as check items.

First, one job to finish by the end of this week. Specify the materials and software you can use and the files you want to receive, and try it out to the point of opening and verifying the actual product.

*Production times and improvement rates are results under individual conditions reported by posters and companies. The posted prompts were created based on the cases and have not been re-executed or verified in the same environment.
