Helping startup operators move faster with automation

I train business professionals on AI and automation: workshops, online courses, live sessions, all the way down to custom company training programs

This is definitely one I didn't have on my bingo card this year: Meta just bought Manus AI for $2B. Thoughts:

While everyone's still talking about who has the best model, Zuck bets on another field: the application layer where the real value gets created (and captured).

The AI stack is splitting into two battles:
→ 𝘔𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘴: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google competing on foundation models
→ 𝘈𝘱𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴: Where AI actually does work people pay for

Meta struggled with models this year. They know it.

By doing this, Zuck doesn't panic buy: he repositions.

Manus already has:
→ Over $125M revenue run rate
→ Millions of active users
→ A general AI agent that actually executes tasks
→ Proof the application layer is where money flows

Meta didn't buy Manus because they're behind.

They bought it because they're ahead.

If you can't win the infrastructure battle, own the consumer experience.

Thoughts?

Claude Code is the topic of the moment, and most assume it's only for developers.

It's not.

Claude Code is one of the most powerful automation tools available to any business professional. 

It can read your files, create documents, connect to external services, and run workflows directly on your computer.

The problem, if you're not technical: getting started feels overwhelming.

That's why we're hosting this 9x Live.

Jan Meinecke will walk you through everything you need to get started with Claude Code, step by step.

You'll learn:
→ The different ways to access Claude Code (and which to start with)
→ The difference between local and cloud modes
→ How to build your first workflow automation from scratch

No coding experience required.

𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞: Claude Code requires a paid plan (Claude Pro at $20/month or API credit). But even if you're on a free account, come watch, ask questions, and decide if it's worth it for you.

Want in?

Kaboom! Anthropic just launched Cowork and made Claude Code accessible to non-developers. 

Yesterday, Anthropic launched Cowork as a research preview - a simplified version of Claude Code designed for business users who don't write code.

This is a big deal.

Claude Code has been the hottest AI tool since its release. Developers used it for coding. Then for everything else. Then business users started playing with it.

The problem: most business users found it too intimidating to adopt.

Cowork should fix that.

Here's what I'm expecting from it:

𝟭. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆'𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴
Claude Code is powerful but complex. Cowork simplifies the interface specifically for non-technical users. Anthropic knows that business adoption requires lowering the barrier to entry - and they're betting big on making this accessible.

𝟮. 𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗮𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗲
Cowork comes with restrictions by design. I'm curious to understand what trade-offs Anthropic made - and whether those limitations actually help or hurt adoption for typical business use cases.

𝟯. 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱
Enterprise buyers need controlled environments. If Cowork delivers better security guardrails while maintaining usefulness, it becomes the tool you can roll out to every employee.

Anthropic is executing on business AI better than anyone right now.

While other providers focus on developer tools or basic chat, Anthropic is building a complete stack for enterprise adoption - from power users (Claude Code) to everyday business users (Cowork).

If your company is still on the fence regarding which AI provider to standardize on: Anthropic is making the strongest case right now.

AI transformation isn't a 𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 problem. It's a 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘭 one.

The bottleneck isn't technical skills. 

It's organizational structure.

These three 𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘳𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘴 are a must to bring AI across the entire organization:

𝐀𝐈 𝐄𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 
Without this role, your AI pilots never get the resources to scale. Evangelists make AI a strategic priority, not a side project:
- Sell the vision from the top. 
- Get executive buy-in.
- Secure budget. 

👤 𝘞𝘩𝘰: Founders, C-levels, VPs 
✨ 𝘒𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴: vision, storytelling, strategic thinking, stakeholder management 
📊 𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘴: Budget secured, initiatives launched, board approval
--

𝐀𝐈 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
Without this role, your AI strategy stays a PowerPoint deck. Champions bridge strategy to execution and drive adoption:
- Lead by example
- Drive change management
- Train teams and communicate wins

👤 𝘞𝘩𝘰: Middle management, AI Transformation Leads, Department heads, Regional heads 
✨ 𝘒𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴: Leading by example, change management, training & communication 
📊 𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘴: Pilot success rate, user adoption, training completion, cross-team usage
--

𝐀𝐈 𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬
Without this role, your AI initiatives become legal nightmares. Guardians keep AI safe, legal, and ethical:
- Manage AI ethics and governance
- Navigate regulatory requirements
- Assess and mitigate risks

👤 𝘞𝘩𝘰: Legal counsel, Risk managers, IT security officers 
✨ 𝘒𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴: AI ethics & governance, regulatory knowledge, risk assessment 📊 𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘴: Incidents prevented, compliance rate, audit pass rate, policy adoption
--

You can have the best AI Operators, Builders, and Engineers in the world. 

But without Evangelists to fund it, Champions to drive it, and Guardians to protect it, you're building on sand.
