# What you can do with an assistant > Example requests for finding events, RSVPing, hosting, running groups, chatting, posting and email, plus ready-made prompts. Source: https://help.gathereasy.rsvp/ai-assistants/what-you-can-do/ A connected assistant can do almost everything you can do in the GatherEasy app, and a few things the app doesn't offer yet. Just describe what you want in your own words. The examples below show what's possible. ## Finding things to do - "What's on in Amsterdam this weekend? I like live music and food." - "Find free tech meetups within 10 km of me next week." - "What are my friends going to this month?" - "Recommend events for me." - "Tell me more about the first one: who's hosting, how many are going and what people said about the group's past events?" - "Show me reviews for this event." - "Find a venue for 40 people for a reception in De Pijp, with a projector and wifi." - "Rank these three venues for a relaxed design meetup." Finished events are left out unless you ask for past events. ## RSVPs, tickets and invitations - "RSVP me to the Quiet Readers Club." - "Do I have any event invitations? Accept the one from Lina." - "What am I going to next week?" - "I'm on the waitlist for Saturday's workshop. Accept the offer if there is one." - "What would happen if I cancelled my ticket for Friday?" The assistant previews the cancellation first. - "Cancel my registration for Friday's dinner." - "Update my answer to the dietary question to vegetarian." - "Give me the payment link for my pending ticket." You complete the payment yourself in GatherEasy. - "Send me my receipt for the jazz night" or "Resend my confirmation email." - "Add the book club to my GatherEasy calendar." - "Mark that event I found on another site as interesting." ## Hosting events - "Create a draft event: Sunday Run Club, 9:00–10:30 on the 12th, Vondelpark, free, 30 places, with a waitlist." - "Duplicate last month's workshop for the 14th" or "Make it a series: every first Thursday until March." - "Add two ticket types: Early bird €10 until Friday, then Regular €15." - "Create a 20% promo code FRIENDS for the workshop, limited to 10 uses." - "Add a required registration question: dietary requirements." - "Set the cover to this image" (paste a link). - "What would cancelling Saturday's event do? How many paid tickets would be refunded?" - "Publish it." ## Running the door and the guest list - "Give me a summary of everything that needs my attention across my events." - "Who's on the waitlist for Saturday? Offer the next three places." - "Approve everyone pending for the workshop who answered the question." - "Find the guest called Sam Lee and check them in." Or "Undo that check-in." - "Add my colleague Priya as a comp guest" (a free place on the list). - "Invite everyone in my book club group who came to an event in the last six months." - "Remove the guest who registered twice." - "Export the guest list as a CSV." - "Show the refund requests for Friday and refund Maria in full." - "How is the event page doing? Where are visitors coming from?" or "What's the payout for last week's event?" - "Show the event's activity log." ## Co-hosts and announcements - "Add Theo as a co-host and Jordan as check-in staff." - "Draft an announcement to everyone going: doors open at 18:45 instead of 19:00. Show me before you send." - "Schedule a reminder announcement for the morning of the event to guests who haven't checked in." - "Send the announcement only to people with VIP tickets, with replies going to me." ## Groups - "Find running groups in Utrecht and join the friendliest one." - "Create a group called Amsterdam Type Nerds, unlisted, based in Amsterdam." - "Who are the members of my group who haven't come to an event in three months?" - "Tag everyone who volunteered last time as 'volunteer'." - "Make Lina an organiser of my group." Or "Transfer ownership to Lina." - "Invite Sam to my group," "approve the pending join requests" or "remove the spam account from my group." - "Put the partner workshop on my group's calendar" or "Review the events submitted to my group." - "Send a message to every member of my group." - "How is my group doing? Show sales, insights and recent reviews." ## People, chats and posts - "Who should I invite to my next event?" - "Follow the host of last night's event and add a private note: met at the book club." - "Catch me up on my chats" or "What did people say in the event chat?" - "Message the hosts of Saturday's dinner to ask if there's a vegetarian option." - "Start a group chat with Lina and Theo called Saturday hikers." - "Mute the noisy group chat." - "Write a Circles post recapping last night's event" or "Like and save Lina's latest post." - "Block that account and report it for spam." ## Your account - "What did I miss?": notifications, invitations, chats and what's next. - "Turn off email for chat messages" or "Mark all my notifications as read." - "Update my bio" or "Use this photo as my profile picture" (paste a link). - "Which devices am I signed in on? Sign out the old laptop." - "Request an export of my GatherEasy data." ## Email With mail access and a linked mailbox, an assistant becomes a mail client too: - "Triage my unread email." - "Find the venue's quote from last week and reply to accept." - "Forward the invoice to Theo" or "Save a draft reply. Don't send it." - "Email all guests of the workshop the slides, Bcc them." - "Send the venue an invite to my event with the calendar file attached." - "Accept the calendar invitation from the photographer." - "Turn this email about a meetup into a GatherEasy event." - "Schedule this email for Monday at 9."

Where your assistant shows MCP prompts (for example in Claude's **+** menu or as `/` commands), look for: | Prompt | What it does | | ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Plan an event** | Turns an idea into a draft event: venues, date, tickets and questions, checking with you before each step. | | **Weekly host digest** | Lists what needs your attention across upcoming events (approvals, waitlists, offers, refund requests) without changing anything. | | **Draft an event announcement** | Writes an announcement for an event's guests and sends it only after you approve. | | **What did I miss** | Catches you up on notifications, chats, invitations and what's next, most urgent first. | | **Find something to do** | Suggests up to five events by time, place and interests, including what friends are going to, and asks before RSVPing. | | **Triage my inbox** | Sorts unread mail into needs a reply, needs an action and can wait, and drafts replies without sending. | ## What assistants can't do - **Charge you.** Paid tickets stay pending until you complete checkout in GatherEasy. Assistants never see ticket codes. - **Transfer a ticket** to someone else. Cancel, and let them register. - **Change a ticket's price, quantity or payment.** Assistants can edit your registration answers only. - **Send friend requests.** Friends are people who follow each other. - **Delete an event with payment history.** Cancel it instead. The record is kept for refunds. ## Tips - **Be specific about which event.** If you host several, name the event or its date. - **Read confirmations.** Before anything is created, changed or sent, your assistant shows you the action. Check the details, especially for announcements and email, which reach people straight away. - **If something fails, check before repeating.** Ask "did that announcement go out?" before trying again, so nothing is sent twice.
