Watch public tenders and file emailed invoices with a small AI assistant

A consultant says an AI assistant scans a government procurement site daily, sorts incoming job emails and turns emailed invoices into PDFs for bookkeeping.

Done with

What they did

The poster runs small scheduled automations in an OpenClaw assistant, chatting over Telegram. One scans a public procurement site for tenders and matches them to his profile, one sorts job emails, and one turns invoices sent in an email body into PDFs for his bookkeeping software.

How it went

The poster does not give figures. He says he could do these tasks by hand, but they now run on a schedule and send matches to his phone.

Worth knowing

This is one person's account in an Ask HN thread, with no results reported. He deliberately keeps the assistant away from systems holding important information and uses it only on public data. Invoices may hold personal data, so check UK GDPR obligations first.

Try it yourself

Paste into ChatGPT, Claude or another AI assistant and fill in the square brackets.

I want a daily summary of new public tenders on [procurement site] that match my business: [services you offer, regions, contract size]. Describe how to set up the search and a short list format with a score for fit. Show me a sample summary before it runs on a schedule.
