You spend your day formatting docs, organizing files, stitching outputs together, and managing context — while AI gets the fun part: the ideas, the drafts, the creative work. It should be the other way around.
You're fighting the tool instead of using it. Re-uploading files, losing context, fixing formatting — it feels like busy work, not a breakthrough.
Chat gives you text. You copy it into a doc. Format it. Realize half is wrong. Go back. Rephrase. Try again. The loop never ends.
Every session, AI forgets who you are. Your role, your standards, your voice — gone. You're onboarding a new intern every single morning.
Anthropic saw this and asked a simple question:
What if Claude didn't just answer — but actually did the work?
