Robocalls are super annoying, but kind of an amazing way to ask someone out on a date (not first date - followups where you know they'll say "yes").

Twilio has this thing called "Twilio Studio" [1] that is essentially a UI that can be used to make these fairly easily. I've asked things like cuisine and alcohol preferences, what time is best for them, and even done more creative things like SMS a scammy link for them to send details in order to collect their "grand prize" (the date).

Also, for the same person, I built an online game for her to play with her students, tailored for speech-language pathology. She works in a public school and was having a really hard time adapting curriculum to an online format (due to COVID). She and her co-workers loved it, and since then, we've made a lading page, more games, and thinking about turning it into a business! [2]
