Prompt library vs installed automations
Moby's Library is impressive — a public shelf of ready-made plays and automation recipes. Here's the difference in approach: a play you paste is a job you still run. A template you install is work that comes back finished.
The Moby Library
A public collection of prompt plays and automation recipes for Moby. You browse the shelf, copy a play, paste it into chat, and run it — then come back and run it again next week. Genuinely useful, and credit where due: it shows how much of the work AI can already take on.
Drew AI Automations
One-click templates instead of copy-paste plays. Pick one, set the cadence, and the finished report lands in your email or Slack on schedule. When Drew finds a fix worth making — a campaign to pause, a budget to shift — it hands you the recommendation with the evidence attached.
