Use cases

Ordinary moments where a missing detail creates work.

Each story below names the source, the details that move, who receives them, and the boundary that keeps the rest private. You stay the decision-maker; the assistant is never an invisible observer. You don’t need anyone else to start: the last section is for one person with more than one assistant.

For families

Keep the household in sync, without the resends.

Partners, parents, adult children, grandparents and caregivers who each use their own assistant — and still forward screenshots, flyers and reminders by hand.

Event flyers

A christening, a birthday, a school concert. One person has the invitation; everyone needs the details.

Before

“Can you resend the flyer? Which hall was it?”

You ask your assistant

“Can you let Sam know about this invite?”

It shares, once you confirm
EventSunday 2:00 PMVenueReception note

→ Partner

After

The partner’s assistant can answer “What time do we need to leave?” using the shared event.

Boundary: your private chat about the event isn’t shared, and neither is the flyer itself — only the details you approve.

Travel plans

One person books; the whole household needs to know when to be where.

Before

“What time does your flight land again? Do you need a lift?”

You ask your assistant

“Send everyone my flight times.”

It shares, once you confirm
Flight windowLodgingPickup neededReturn date

→ Household

After

Each person’s assistant can plan around the arrival and remind whoever is doing the airport run.

Boundary: itinerary facts are kept separate from payment details, booking accounts and identity documents.

School updates

The newsletter lands in one inbox. The pickup change matters to three adults.

Before

“Wait — is it early finish today? Who’s getting them?”

You ask your assistant

“Tell Nana Jo about Friday’s early pickup.”

It shares, once you confirm
Pickup changeDeadlineItem to pack

→ Parents & approved caregivers

After

The grandparent’s assistant reminds them about the 2:30 PM pickup on the right day.

Boundary: share the logistics — times, places, what to bring — not children’s sensitive records.

Home appointments

The plumber is booked. The person who’ll be home isn’t the one who booked it.

Before

“Someone’s at the door saying they’re here for the hot water?”

You ask your assistant

“Let Sam know the plumber’s coming 8 to 10 tomorrow.”

It shares, once you confirm

→ Partner or house manager

After

Their assistant flags the 8–10 AM window and what the visit is for.

Boundary: security codes and precise access instructions are never shared broadly.

Caregiving handoffs

Siblings sharing the load for a parent, or a family handing over to a regular helper.

Before

“Did anyone take Dad to the hairdresser this week?”

You ask your assistant

“Tell my brother Dad’s haircut is done.”

It shares, once you confirm
SchedulePreferenceTask completed

→ Approved relatives

After

Each sibling’s assistant knows what’s done and what’s next — no group-chat archaeology.

Boundary: non-clinical details only. Medical information doesn’t belong in FamRelay.

Try it with your own household.

Connect your assistant, add the people you coordinate with, and share the next thing you’d otherwise resend.

Your own assistants

Worked it out in one assistant. Need it in another.

If you use more than one assistant, connect each to FamRelay with the same Google account. Then a detail you approve in one is there for the others, without copying and pasting between apps.

Carry a plan across

You planned the weekend away with one assistant at your desk. You use a different one on your phone.

Before

Copy the plan, open the other app, paste it in, explain it again.

You ask your assistant

“Send this trip plan to my other assistants.”

It shares, once you confirm
DatesWhere you’re stayingBookings to make

→ Your other assistants

After

In the other assistant, ask “What did I send myself on FamRelay?” and carry on from the same plan.

Boundary: only the details you approve move, not the conversation. Every assistant connected to your account can read them; you can’t pick just one yet.

Flight details, in the car

Your booking is in the assistant you use at home. The assistant in your car is a different one. We use this ourselves, with Grok in a Tesla.

Before

At a red light, scrolling your inbox for the terminal and the departure time.

You ask your assistant

“Send my flight details to my other assistants.”

It shares, once you confirm
FlightDeparture timeTerminalArrival time

→ Your other assistants

After

In the car, ask Grok “What time is my flight on Friday?” and it reads them out. How to set it up in a Tesla.

Boundary: the booking account and payment details stay where they are. Grok reads the details aloud, so anyone in the car hears them.

Share while you drive

You remember the appointment halfway home. With Grok in a Tesla, you can pass it on by voice, to your other assistants or to your family.

Before

Trying to hold onto it until you’re parked, then forgetting to tell anyone.

You ask Grok, in the car

“Let my other assistants know I’ve got the dentist on Tuesday at 3.”

It shares, once you say yes
AppointmentDayTime

→ Your other assistants, or a contact

After

The assistant at your desk already has Tuesday at 3:00 PM when you sit down. Sharing from the car.

Boundary: Grok reads back what it would send and to whom. Nothing is sent until you say yes.

A handoff, not a memory. The other assistant shows the item when you ask for it, not on its own. Items hold up to 20 short details and last at most 90 days, so this suits a plan or a decision you’re carrying across, not everything an assistant knows about you. How FamRelay behaves today.
