# Cowork runs most of my work

Claude Cowork handles the author's inbox CRM, content audits, transcript analysis, competitor teardowns and a scheduled trend brief.

Result: The author now runs about 80% of their work through Cowork and says the builds saved over 10 hours a week.

## How it was set up

Claude Cowork with Gmail and Notion connected, browser use for competitor research, context files describing the business, and scheduled tasks for the daily and weekly briefs.
