MinervaAI is a second brain where AI doesn't just answer questions — it creates and edits notes, manages your Google Calendar, reads your Gmail, builds interactive widgets, and gives you a morning briefing based on what's in your vault. The AI gets to know you the more you use it and can suggest inefficiencies in what you are doing. It can build too - dashboards, holiday trackers, fitness trackers and more
MinervaAI Builder Story — Dubai Flight & Hotel Price Tracker 🚀
The Ask
A simple message in chat:
No spreadsheets. No Zapier. No dev work. Just a conversation.
What MinervaAI Did
Rather than dumping a half-built template and walking away, MinervaAI asked the right questions — one at a time:
🛫 Where are you flying from? (London — Heathrow & Gatwick)
🌍 Where to? (Dubai — DXB)
📅 What are your travel dates? (Dec 23 → Jan 2)
👨👩👧 How many passengers? (Adults + children, with ages — because Google Flights counts ages differently)
🏨 Any specific hotel? (Yes — tracked alongside flights)
⏰ What time should it check daily? (7am)
Then it confirmed everything before building — no surprises.
What Was Built
A fully automated daily price tracker — no code written by the user, no external tools needed.
📋 Three notes, created automatically:
Note
What it does
Dubai Trip -- Flight and Hotel Price Tracker
The live dashboard — updated every morning with today's prices, price history tables, trends, and top flight listings
Dubai Trip -- Booking Strategy and Price Dip Alerts
AI-generated strategy note: when to book, what price triggers to act on, historical context
Dubai Trip -- Price Alert — 2026-07-01
Daily snapshot note — captures the exact prices found that morning
🔄 The automation runs every morning at 7am and:
Checks Google Flights for economy, business, and direct options
Checks Google Hotels for the tracked property
Compares today's price to yesterday's
Calculates the trend (rising / falling / stable)
Updates the tracker note with a running price history table
Flags significant price drops as alerts
Notes how many days until the travel date (urgency indicator)
The Conversation That Built It
That's it. The whole thing. No settings panel. No integrations page. Just a conversation.
Why This Matters
MinervaAI isn't just a note-taker. It's a builder.
Most note apps store what you write. MinervaAI can build things for you — trackers, dashboards, automations — entirely through conversation.
No Zapier. No Google Sheets. No separate app. It lives inside your knowledge base, alongside your travel notes, packing lists, and itinerary.

The Technical Reality
Under the hood, the flight tracker uses:
SerpAPI — querying Google Flights and Google Hotels daily (free tier: 100 searches/month)
MinervaAI's automation engine — scheduled daily at a chosen UTC time
AI note generation — the AI reads yesterday's data, computes trends, writes the new dashboard entry
Structured note output — price history tables, trend indicators, booking recommendations
The user provides their own SerpAPI key (free at serpapi.com). MinervaAI stores it securely. Everything else is handled automatically.
The Bigger Picture
The Dubai tracker is one example. But the same pattern applies to everything:
You describe what you want
MinervaAI asks the minimum questions to build it right
It builds, schedules, and runs — without you touching a config file
That's the product. That's the story.
