What they did
Engineer AJ Stuyvenberg wanted a 2026 Hyundai Palisade and built an OpenClaw agent to shop for it. The agent searched dealer stock in his area for the trim and color he wanted. It filled in contact forms at several dealers. Then it answered dealer emails with counteroffers based on rival quotes. AJ made the final call on price. This account comes from an OpenClaw DC blog roundup, not AJ's own post.
How it went
The blog says the agent handled the price comparing and back-and-forth that usually takes a whole weekend. AJ decided the price. No final price or savings figure is given.
Worth knowing
The blog credits the result to a narrow, measurable task using public stock listings, with a human making the final decision. It advises letting agents only draft messages at first.
Try it yourself with OpenClaw
I want to buy a [year make model] in [trim] and [color] within [distance] of [your city]. Search dealer inventories and list the lots that have it, with stock numbers and listed prices. Draft a short inquiry for each dealer's contact form asking for an out-the-door quote. Show me the drafts and wait for my approval before you submit anything. When quotes come back, put them in a table. Draft counteroffers that cite the best competing quote, and show me each one before sending. Never agree to a price, place a deposit or sign anything. I will make the final decision.
