What's inside

Twelve chapters, about 20,000 words.

  1. Chapter 1 The Pile
    Everyone has a pile. It's not a physical pile, though it might include one.
  2. Chapter 2 Your Calendar, Handled
    Almost every life admin job touches your calendar. An appointment to book.
  3. Chapter 3 Health Admin, Not Health Advice
    Let me be clear at the start, because this chapter needs it more than any other. A bot can help you with the paperwork around your health.
  4. Chapter 4 Shopping Without the Tabs
    You know the feeling. You need a new kettle.
  5. Chapter 5 House Hunting
    House hunting is the biggest shopping trip most people ever take. It's also one of the most tiring.
  6. Chapter 6 Selling Your Car
    Selling a car privately can get you more money than trading it in. It also means a lot of work.
  7. Chapter 7 Cutting Down Spam Calls
    Spam calls are one of those modern annoyances that feel impossible to fix. You block a number and another one calls.
  8. Chapter 8 Keeping an Eye on Your Money
    Most people don't need a bot to manage their money. They need a bot to look at it.
  9. Chapter 9 Errands and Everyday Bookings
    There's a category of life admin that's not big enough to worry about and not small enough to ignore. Booking a table for Friday.
  10. Chapter 10 Routines That Run the House
    So far, you've mostly been starting each job yourself. Find me a kettle.
  11. Chapter 11 Privacy and Staying in Charge
    By now, your bots know a lot about you. Your calendar.
  12. Chapter 12 Your First Weekend
    We've covered a lot in this book. Calendar, health, shopping, houses, cars, spam calls, money, errands, routines and privacy.
