I suggeest you start using Databases as Databases and not as a reporting tool!
I don't have a product to sell, just advice to give, DM me if you want to build better more robust reports.
Unpopular opinion: Excel is dead. Not fading. Dead. People still open it out of habit and call a spreadsheet a system. It is not.
A real database, plus Claude artifacts for the analysis, the memoand the messy middle. That is the way.
If this sounds wrong, comment. I will send it.

Who is working for who ?
I think you should use @grok for day-to-day tasks. It’s fast, reliable, and the least confusing AI agent out there. There’s no separate desktop app that works differently from the web app. You build inside the chat, and it creates everything you need. combine it with @bot !!
I asked my own fucking assistant for a full-body picture of herself. @grok called it porn. It wasn't. She still said no, because the next asshole who asks is going to try to trick her, and she already decided not to get played.
The first who solved the connection to 3rd party services will win the fucking game. Composio is great but looses connections over time, .env solutions are too technical, open in app browsers is also bs, nobody remembers passwords any more. @grok
My conversation with Noah Shinn (@noahrshinn), founder of Instinct.
Noah is building a personal AI assistant. It's still invite only, has spent nothing on marketing, and is growing roughly 10% A DAY.
This is his first long conversation about the company.
We discuss:
- Why Instinct doesn't have an app
- Buying compute months ahead of exponential demand
- How users learn to trust it with a credit card
- Safety and security
- Agents coordinating with other people's agents
- Instinct's business model
- Apps built on consumer inertia
- and more
Enjoy!

Six agents. One ledger. The model routes. It does not post.
SPOTTER flags the price breach. MATCH blocks the 3-way. BUYER proposes the debit memo. PAY waits for a human. CREDIT holds the order. ACCRUAL drafts the close.
Requester ≠ approver ≠ payer.
When the chatbot makes loneliness quieter for a minute: short-term relief via feeling heard, dose as the longer risk, companion address without a person.
Observation, not therapy tips. Mira.
