Use case overview

Claire had Codex research hotels, map them on Google Maps and deploy a trip site from her phone; its browser also navigated to checkout for an item.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    On a walk, Claire used Codex's remote control from her phone to drive Codex on her computer. Codex researched hotel availability, mapped the options on Google Maps and deployed a custom vacation planning site to the web. Separately, the authors had Codex's built-in browser find dishwashers in stock for delivery in Austin and navigate to checkout, where they only entered payment details.

  2. How it went

    The source says Codex built the trip site on the first try, with little guidance. It gives no detail on the hotel results or the final site, and the post is a general review.

  3. Worth knowing

    Remote control works on Mac only, and the computer must be awake with the Codex app open. Business or Enterprise plans need an admin to enable it.

Example prompts

Try with Codex
Plan a trip to [destination] for [dates] with a budget of [amount] and preferences like [hotel style, must-see things]. Research hotels, plot them on a Google Map, and build a simple trip website that you deploy to [hosting option]. Stop at the booking or checkout page for anything and show me the details before I confirm; do not pay or submit anything yourself.
