Analyze your current environment through voice queries and automatically trigger appropriate smart home scenes and reminders.

Workflow Steps

1

Siri Shortcuts

Create environment analysis trigger

Build a Siri Shortcut activated by 'Optimize my space' that prompts you to describe your current environment (messy desk, dark room, etc.). The shortcut captures this description and your current time/location.

2

OpenAI GPT-4

Analyze context and suggest actions

Send the environment description to GPT-4 with a prompt like: 'Based on this environment: [description], time: [time], suggest 3 immediate actions for productivity and comfort.' Configure it to return structured recommendations for lighting, organization, and focus.

3

IFTTT

Trigger smart home automations

Set up IFTTT applets that receive webhook calls from your Shortcut based on GPT-4's recommendations. Create scenarios like 'dim lights for focus time,' 'play concentration music,' or 'send desk cleanup reminder to phone.'

4

Todoist

Schedule follow-up optimization tasks

Automatically create time-blocked tasks in Todoist for recommended environment improvements, like '15-min desk organization' or 'adjust workspace lighting.' Use natural language scheduling like 'tomorrow morning.'
