Does the Instapaper agent actually execute tasks?

Yes. Unlike a copilot that only suggests text, our agent performs the work. It reads your articles, processes the data, and updates your connected apps like Notion, Slack, or Google Sheets directly.

How is this different from Instapaper's native features?

Native Instapaper features focus on reading and basic filing. Our agent adds intelligence, allowing you to cross-reference saved content with other apps, automate synthesis, and build workflows that Instapaper cannot do alone.

Is this better than using Zapier for Instapaper?

Zapier requires you to build rigid, step-by-step logic. With DoMyWork, you describe the task in plain English (e.g., 'Summarise my unread articles and post to Slack'), and the agent handles the multi-step execution.

Can the agent monitor my Instapaper account autonomously?

Yes. You can set up 'Autopilot' jobs that watch for new saves. The moment an article lands in your account, the agent can trigger a summary, route it to a project folder, or alert you if it matches specific criteria.

Is my Instapaper data safe?

We prioritise security. Your data is processed only to execute the tasks you explicitly request. We do not store your credentials or content beyond what is necessary to perform the requested actions.

Can I connect Instapaper to multiple apps at once?

Absolutely. You can create a single instruction that triggers a chain of events, such as summarising an article, adding the summary to Notion, and sharing the link in a Slack channel.
