Documents in seconds
Need a proposal? A quote template? A meeting summary? Claude Cowork can create, edit, and format documents — fully formatted, ready to send.
Connecting your existing tools
Cowork connects to tools you already use: Gmail, Google Calendar, and more. It can draft emails, check your schedule, and find information — without you switching between apps.
Repeating tasks, automatically
Do you send a weekly update? Run the same report every Monday? Cowork can handle tasks on a schedule — so they happen whether you remember or not.
- Open four different apps to check status
- Copy-paste information between tools
- Remember to send the weekly update yourself
- Draft every document from a blank page
- Ask one question, get answers from all your tools
- Claude pulls information directly from connected apps
- Scheduled tasks run automatically on your chosen day
- Describe what you need — Claude drafts and formats it
- Think of the last three things you had to do manually that felt repetitive.
- Match each one to a capability: documents, connectors, or scheduled tasks.
- Write down which capability would save you the most time this week.
