GETTING THINGS DONE · VIDEO DEMO · BY DUSTYWIRE
You keep meaning to take a break. Give it a place on the calendar.
Another busy morning, another forgotten break. Even a small reminder means opening the calendar, finding the repeat setting, and getting the time right. Hand off the setup.
Here is one way to start:
“Remind me every day at 9 AM to take a break and stretch.”
Watch Dusty create a daily 9 AM event in Google Calendar. This Windows recording is edited for pace.

Meet DustyWire. Hand over some of the computer work.
DustyWire is an AI assistant for Windows and macOS that can work on your computer using the mouse and keyboard.
Describe what you want done. Dusty reads what is on your screen, presents a plan for your approval, and works through on-screen steps across apps and websites. You can watch the work and step in when you need to.
Some tasks are confusing. Others are just tedious. You do not have to be stuck to want a hand.
One request. A recurring event you can check.
In this recording, Dusty opens Google Calendar and creates an event called Take a break and stretch at 9 AM. It changes the repeat option to Daily, saves the event, and opens it again so the schedule is visible.
- Describe the reminder, time, and repeat pattern.
- Review Dusty’s plan before it works in your calendar.
- Let Dusty create and save the recurring event.
- Check the time, recurrence, and notification setting in the saved event.
Say when, how often, and in which calendar
A useful request includes the calendar you want to use, your local time, and whether the reminder should run every day or only on workdays. Add an end date if it should stop. Before relying on the reminder, check your calendar’s time zone and whether notifications are enabled on your device.
The recording shows a calendar event with a notification when it starts. It does not show a reminder service running inside DustyWire. Once saved, the calendar handles the event and its notification settings.
A small job you can take off your list
You do not have to be stuck to want a hand. Sometimes you know exactly what needs doing and simply have better things to spend your time on. Describe one clear result, approve the plan, and let Dusty work through the on-screen steps.

A few things you might be wondering
Does Dusty have to stay open for this calendar event?
The demonstration saves a recurring event in Google Calendar. Its reminders depend on Google Calendar and your device’s notification settings. Check those settings in the calendar after creating the event.
Can I step in while Dusty is working?
Yes. Move your mouse or press a key and Dusty waits. After you let go for a few seconds, it can carry on. Use Stop when you want it to stay paused.
Does this demonstration show my operating system?
This recording shows Windows. DustyWire is also available for macOS; apps, settings, and available controls can differ between systems.
