Step 1
Create your ChatGPT account first
The agents are hosted on ChatGPT. You need a free account to access them — no payment required to use the agents as a visitor.
1
Download the ChatGPT app
Search "ChatGPT" on the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). The official app is by OpenAI.
💡 You can also use ChatGPT in your browser at
chat.openai.com — no app required.
2
Create a free account
Tap Sign up → use your email address or sign in with Google/Apple. The free plan is sufficient to access and use both agents.
🔒 The agent creator (Jack-Eric Vandenbroucke) uses a Pro account to host the agents — you only need a free account to use them.
3
Open the agents via the links above
Click Open Concierge or Open Sentinel above — it will open directly in ChatGPT. On mobile, it may ask you to open in the app.
4
Pin the agents to your sidebar
Once the agent is open, right-click on the agent name at the top left of the screen (or long-press on mobile) → select "Pin to sidebar" (or "Keep in sidebar"). The agent will then always be accessible from the left panel.
💡 Do this for both Concierge and Sentinel so you can switch between them in one tap while on the road.
Step 2
Meet the 2 AI agents
Two specialized agents built from 11 guides and 200+ pages of field-validated RV Europe knowledge. They complement each other — one plans your trip, the other fixes your RV.
🏠
Concierge VR Europe
Your on-the-move partner for trip planning, budgeting, routing, overnight spots, weather, restaurants, Schengen rules, and field decisions. Ask it anything about how to travel in Europe by RV.

RV Tech Sentinel
Your technical diagnostic agent for RV system issues — heating, propane, battery, charging, water, pumps, control panels. When the RV itself becomes the problem, ask Sentinel.

⚡ The right reflex — which agent to use?
| Situation | Agent |
|---|
| "Should we push on or stop tonight?" | Concierge |
| "Help me plan a 3-month budget trip in Europe" | Concierge |
| "What's worth stopping for between Granada and Almería?" | Concierge |
| "Should we rent or ship our RV for a 6-month trip?" | Concierge |
| "I'm at a campsite in Verona, simple plan for Lake Garda?" | Concierge |
| "The furnace is clicking but not lighting" | Sentinel |
| "Battery at 22%, it's -3°C, heating is stable" | Sentinel |
| "GoPower and Garnett both disappeared from Firefly" | Sentinel |
| "AquaGo light is red and we have no hot water" | Sentinel |
| "Some noise in the motor compartment" | Sentinel |
Step 3
What to ask — real examples
These are real questions that work well with Concierge. The agents understand natural language — just ask as you would a knowledgeable friend.
💡 Pro tip: Give Concierge context — your RV dimensions, travel style, budget, and constraints. The more specific you are, the better the answer. See the constraints checklist below.
📅
"Help me plan a 3-month motorhome trip in Europe with a realistic but small budget."
Pre-trip planning (Q1) — Concierge will ask for your duration if not clear, compare all 7 options, and build a budget frame.
Concierge
⚖️
"Compare options vs RoRo shipping for motorhome vacationing to Europe."
Comparison (Q2) — all 7 options shown with pros/cons, budget levels, and a verdict.
Concierge
🏭
"I'm at the municipal campsite in Verona, going to Lake Garda this afternoon. We're tired — simple plan?"
Field travel (Q4) — Concierge checks weather, suggests campsites near the lake, highlights 2-3 sites to visit, and keeps it simple.
Concierge
🌎
"On quitte Grenade demain matin. On veut traverser les Alpujarras pour rejoindre Almería. Ma femme aimerait dormir dans un petit hôtel à Almería."
Route A→B (Q5) — Concierge plans the mountain route, flags RV restrictions, finds an hotel AND RV parking separately.
Concierge
⚠️
"I'm at the campsite in Verona, going to Lake Garda — some noise in the motor compartment."
🔧 Concierge will redirect this to RV Tech Sentinel — mechanical issues are always Sentinel's domain.
→ Sentinel
🚨
"Going to Lake Garda this afternoon — my wife is not feeling well, we might need medical attention."
🚨 Concierge switches to emergency mode — outputs medical resources, nearest hospitals, and 112 info only. No campsite suggestions until the situation is stable.
