Agree, and I’m not suggesting every benefit needs to be precisely quantified. Better diligence, decision-making, etc. clearly have value, even if difficult to put a number on. (Though I’d argue these should eventually show up in better win rates, higher returns, fewer costly mistakes, or other measurable outcomes.)

I think the distinction is between productivity gains and actually capturing that value economically

Your FP&A example makes sense if that’s a hire you otherwise would have needed as the business grew. But I think a lot of companies are claiming significant cost savings from AI without actually reducing headcount (understandably), avoiding future hires, or translating that additional capacity into growth

And there’s also the question of whether the additional output is actually necessary. Just because we can produce 3x as many reports doesn’t mean we should

I think that’s the disconnect I’m seeing in a lot of these discussions. People are clearly getting more done, but it’s less clear how much of that is translating into economic value

@OneManLBO CrowdHealth is way overlooked. Damn near impossible convince people to try them though even after when they know insurance is ripping them off

@OneManLBO “Claude I have 3 hours to use all my compute, look across my repos and identify the highest value places to use it leveraging at minimum 6 subagents in parallel”

@PEoperator 100% agree. It’s insane the quality of people I’ve met in hotel gyms at 4-5am. Never more than 3-4 people but you can tell they’re out working everyone else

@therobertbrooks Would love to hear about the incentive structure you use with your sales team. Have to imagine that’s helped a lot?

@bridgemindai 50% to 0% in an hour and then after reset went 100% to 38% in an hour using Astra light. Definitiely a problem. Feedback ID: 01a085a4-f302-7c91-b939-d71a48c3d3d6 @thsottiaux

@freddymcgill If you’re not launching a course you’re doing something wrong

@johnnywrestling I think it's dependent on deal size and multiple. What do those metrics look like as part of this 80% success group you've had?

[Colton Heil @Colton_Heil]

@PEoperator Happy to chat through what I've seen work and spin up a demo for you if helpful. Sent you a DM

@lydiahallie When will you be resetting usage limits due to this bug?

@paulswaney3 Not a hack unfortunately but don't try to fix this by using Lyft. The navigation on their app in Chicago seems to be even worse

@blueprintsmb22 Who would have guessed.. Wild how many people disregard basic Econ because it doesn’t fit their narrative

@jamesonhaslam Video editing course when?

[Colton Heil @Colton_Heil]

@STLChrisH Sounds like a win win to screen those folks out!

@rezoundous I don’t know why it works but it does (most of the time)

[Colton Heil @Colton_Heil]

@PEoperator Honestly leverage the X algorithm. Start bookmarking and liking cool business things people use it for and within a couple days you’ll have so many relevant use cases bookmarked that you have to start prioritizing

Ask me how I know… 😂

Using Clawdbot/OpenClaw with opus is like managing an overeager analyst who doesn't understand that "less is more." Buddy, you don't need to go the extra mile; just follow the brief
