Research and rank sales leads into tickets
A three-person Polish software house had Hermes write briefs on 24 leads, each a ticket with a company profile, the likely problem, a first-contact suggestion and a hot/warm/cold rating. It also produced a 45-page competitor report and critiqued the team's first outreach email as too generic.

Give each team its own agent profile for ops work
A 17-person data startup (Artie) runs Hermes on one self-hosted machine with a separate profile per team. Its BizOps profile handles pipeline reviews, reconciliation and tracker updates, and flags exceptions for a human; staff mostly use it through Slack.

Draft client invoices from task and time logs
A Swiss web agency gave Hermes access to its time-tracking and task tools plus a written invoicing skill. The agent checks completed, approved work, creates invoice drafts with a client summary, and a person reviews and sends every invoice. The poster says support billing is about half of revenue and the time saved is large but gives no figure.

Summarize inbound chat leads and ask before replying
A consultant who sets Hermes up for small French businesses says one engine-cleaning shop has it check Facebook Messenger leads every 15 minutes, summarize each one and ask the owner how to reply. Another client dictates quotes straight into a CRM. The poster says clients have logged about 8,000 scheduled runs.

Brief sales reps on a prospect's stack before discovery calls
Artie, a 17-person startup, gives its sales team a Hermes Agent profile that researches each prospect, maps their current tools, and pulls deal context before a discovery call. Because it also knows the company's product docs, it can warn the rep where a prospect's existing tool tends to break before the call starts.

Give every employee a morning and evening digest
Razorpay's engineering blog says more than 220 employees each run their own isolated Hermes agent. One example reads its owner's Slack, GitHub and Google Workspace, posts a 07:15 morning digest and a 19:00 end-of-day digest to a private Slack channel, and nudges a task tracker every two hours. Any new skill the agent writes for itself can be held for human approval.
