Invoices automated and inbox ranked daily
A Substack roundup collects reports from Claude Cowork users. Dean Ball lists what he automated in one month. His list starts with invoice creation, sending, and tracking. It also covers his research flow for proposed state AI laws. He still reads any bill he writes about. Nikhil Krishnan is a non-technical operator. In about an hour, he set up a daily email to himself. It names the top three emails he must answer. A priority score ranks them. The score pulls data from a few sources. The roundup gives no money amounts for these flows.
How it wentInvoices are created, sent, and tracked by the agent, per Dean Ball's own list. The daily top-three email digest was set up in about an hour, per Nikhil Krishnan. No amounts, counts, or time savings are given for either flow. The roundup also notes the tool had bugs and connector problems at launch.
Try it · based on the source's workflow
Set up my daily email digest. Each morning, read [inbox]. Score each open thread with this rule: [priority rule]. Send me one email that names the top three threads to answer today, with one line on each: who sent it, what they need, and what is blocked on me. Draft a reply for each one and show me the drafts. Send nothing until I approve it.
A starting template based on the workflow the source describes. Review it before you use it; you are responsible for what it does.
