Pack the trip. Run the week. Ship the decision.
cubby ai handles the logistics layer of life — itineraries, reroutes, translations, household runs — and returns one next action at a time, with sources attached.
§ 01 · Capabilities
Built for the trip in motion and the week ahead.
Logistics, language, and the small decisions that pile up — measured by time-to-action.
Reroutes, not regrets
When the train cancels, the agent rebuilds your afternoon — transit verified, bookings adjusted, contingencies costed out.
Translates the front line
Reads signs, menus, prescription labels, and clinic intake forms on the ground. Returns what to say, not just what it means.
Household, dispatched
Renewals, repair quotes, school admin, appointment chains — the queue gets cleared without you opening 14 tabs.
Sourced, never invented
Every recommendation traces back to a primary source — official site, transit board, local registry. No hallucinated openings.
§ 01 · ON-THE-GROUND TRANSLATION
On-the-ground translation
Read what is in front of you. Reply in the register the moment demands.
I am at a Japanese-only kaiten sushi spot. Translate the conveyor labels in this photo, flag the three least common items, and give me one polite line to ask the chef for an off-menu omakase round.
I have low-grade fever and a productive cough on day 2 of a Bangkok trip. Translate what to ask a Thai pharmacist, list local-brand equivalents for ibuprofen / dextromethorphan / oral rehydration salts, and flag anything I should not self-medicate.
I lost my wallet at a café in Lisbon two hours ago. Draft a Portuguese email to the café, a checklist for the next 24 hours, and the order I should cancel cards, freeze accounts, and file a police report.
I need to fill out a German Krankenkasse intake form for a non-urgent visit. Walk through each field in plain English and tell me what to write for a tourist on a Schengen visa with travel insurance.
A vendor in a Hanoi market is pressing me on a price. Give me three escalating refusal lines in Vietnamese, from light decline to firm walk-away, with the register and body-language note for each.
Translate this Japanese station sign and tell me which exit gets me closest to the address at the end of this URL. Show the walk in minutes and the platform number for the next inbound train.
§ 02 · REROUTE & RECOVERY
Reroute & recovery
Plans break. The agent rebuilds the next 6 hours before you finish your coffee.
My connecting flight just cancelled with 11 hours until my onward meeting. Compare 3 rebooking paths via the same airline alliance, the cash-vs-miles cost, and which gets me to a bed before midnight local.
SNCF strike just took out my Paris → Lyon TGV. Build a 3-option recovery: BlaBlaCar, flight via ORY, overnight intercity. Compare door-to-door time, cost, and arrival energy.
Heavy rain just cancelled my Kyoto hike. List 3 indoor alternatives within 30 minutes of my current location that locals actually use, ranked by quietness and weekday opening hours.
I missed a non-refundable hotel check-in by 6 hours due to delays. Draft the polite email to the property in the local language and a fallback plan if they release the room.
My partner just got sick on day 1 of a 5-day Rome trip. Reshuffle the remaining 4 days into a low-energy version — short walking distances, rest gaps, food they can keep down. Keep at least 2 priority sights.
I am stranded at Frankfurt airport overnight. Build the next 14 hours: where to actually sleep airside, the first café open at 05:00, and how to be at the lounge ready before my 09:40 boarding.
§ 03 · ITINERARY PACKING
Itinerary packing
Container-thinking for trips. Every day fits. Nothing rattles in transit.
I have one free day in Taipei before a 19:30 flight. Pack the day: breakfast, two anchors, a buffer window for rain, and the latest I can leave for TPE without missing boarding. Use real transit times.
Build a 7-day Lisbon → Porto → Douro itinerary that fits in a single carry-on. Each day: anchor + flex + escape hatch if weather flips. Mark anything that must be booked > 14 days out.
A 6-day NYC trip with kids aged 6 and 9. Cap subway rides at 25 minutes each, include one museum, one park, one show. Build in a 90-minute nap window each afternoon.
For a 5-day mid-range Bangkok trip for two, break a 2,500 USD budget into transport / lodging / food / activities / a 12% buffer. Use realistic baht figures, no round numbers.
Plan 10 days in Mexico City as a workation: 4 hours of deep work each morning, fast wifi, lunches under 30 minutes from a coworking spot, and 3 weekend anchors that do not require a rental car.
Stitch Tokyo + Seoul into one 9-day trip for first-timers. Decide the order, the inter-city leg, and the 2 days where I should not over-schedule. Treat each as a city worth slowing down in.
§ 04 · HOUSEHOLD QUEUE
Household queue
The errand backlog, dispatched. Decisions, not 14 open tabs.
I am moving into a new apartment in Berlin in 4 weeks. Build a week-by-week countdown: utilities, internet, Anmeldung, Hausratversicherung, Sperrmüll rules. Flag anything that requires an in-person appointment.
My dishwasher leaks at the end of the cycle. List the 3 most likely causes ranked by probability and cost, the question to ask before a service visit, and when it is cheaper to replace.
Find a reliable dentist in central Madrid that takes walk-ins, has English-speaking staff, and Saturday hours. Provide phone, address, and a one-line summary of recent patient reviews.
What do I need to renew a Brazilian passport from Japan? Timeline, documents, consulate fees, mailing rules, and the 2 most common reasons applications get rejected.
Compare 3 robot vacuums under 500 EUR for a 75 m² apartment with hardwood floors and one cat. Trade off suction, mapping, maintenance, noise, and parts availability in the EU after 3 years.
Plan 5 weeknight dinners for two — 30 min prep, balanced, varied cuisines, no fish. Output a shopping list grouped by store aisle and a leftovers plan for Friday lunch.
§ 99 · How it runs
How it runs
No platform to learn. State the decision, get one back.
State the next decision
One sentence is enough. The agent reads the goal as a directive, not a query.
It plans, then dispatches
Headless browsing, tool calls, retries. Sources cited as they are pulled.
You get one action
Sized. Cited. The cost of waiting is on the same screen as the recommendation.
