AI AGENT TEMPLATE
An AI agent that watches e-bike battery states during open hours and alerts staff when any unit drops below safe rental threshold.
Sending an e-bike out with 40% battery instead of 100% is a customer-experience disaster that manifests 8km from the shop, when the customer is hot, tired, and ready to ride home to find their bike has 8% left. You either send a van to rescue them (expensive, often impossible), leave them to pedal the e-bike home as a 25kg manual bike (one-star review), or hear nothing until the bad review posts. None of these are good.
The E-Bike Low Battery Alert Agent catches the problem before the bike leaves the shop. Integrated with your bike check-out workflow and (for fleet models that support it) battery telemetry, the agent flags any e-bike due to leave the shop below a configurable charge threshold — typically 90%. Staff get a notification in the check-out app; the bike is held or swapped before the customer leaves.
The operational win is measured in avoided service calls and prevented negative reviews. Even a single avoided rescue pays for the agent for a season. More subtly, the agent drives the culture shift needed — staff get used to seeing battery status as a check-out-critical variable, not an afterthought, which prevents the incidents that don't quite trip the alert but still produce unhappy customers.
Below is the full agent spec: trigger, tools, battery telemetry integration, and how to configure the threshold and check-out gating for your specific e-bike fleet.
"Every 30 min during open hours, poll e-bike battery states. Alert counter if any unit below 70% is about to be rented or any unit on the rack is below 60%. Suggest swap actions."
Paste this into Dash Agents. Dash reads the prompt, picks the right tools, assembles the logic, and creates a ready-to-run agent in seconds.
The agent uses the standard Dash Agents tool library. Every tool call is logged.
On trigger, the agent runs these steps in order. Any step can be customised by re-prompting.
Every 30 min during open hours, read battery state for every e-bike.
Identify which e-bikes are booked in next 2 hours.
Booked e-bike below 70% or racked e-bike below 60% gets flagged.
Identify available high-charge e-bikes that could swap in.
Push notification to counter staff, log per e-bike.
Customisations by re-prompting in plain English: change the trigger timing or conditions, adjust the recipient list, tune thresholds, modify tone, add approval gates, connect additional channels (SMS, WhatsApp) if available. Run in approval mode for the first week to build confidence before switching to autonomous.
Structured automation beats manual follow-up in three ways:
Set this agent up on your first week. Run in approval mode for five days while you watch the outputs, then flip to autonomous. The ROI compounds across a full season — a quiet automation that simply does the right thing, every time, without anyone having to remember.
Minimum 70% for a half-day rental, 85%+ for a full-day. Customers routinely use assist more aggressively than planned, so err high. Account for battery age too — an older battery at 70% delivers less real range than a new one at 70%. Low-battery rentals that strand customers are one of the worst possible rental experiences.
