My relationship with my computer has changed more in the last month than in the previous 10 years.
Here's a walkthrough of how I as a CEO am using Claude Code as my AI Chief of Staff to roughly double my productivity.
I show how show how with near perfect context on our company (Ada) and by personal life, my chief of staff helps me:
- Unify 6+ inboxes across Slack, Email, Whatsapp, etc. and speed through them
- Manage a multiplayer todo list that it works on for me overnight
- Increase the number of deep relationships I can manage by automatically enriching contact records from all Granola transcripts
- Push back on core decisions I'm making and ensure my time is aligned to my key goals
- more...
I've put first version on Github below. If you're a CEO or an exec, give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
🚨 Official @claudeai for Marketing & GTM Community Meetup
When: April 20th @ 6pm.
Where: Downtown Toronto 🇨🇦
This one's for the marketers, growth people, and GTM folks that are using AI in their workflows.

Whether you're already deep in it or just figuring out where AI fits into your marketing stack - this is the room to be in.
Spots are limited.
Sign up for demo's, volunteers and attendance in comments.
wrote something I've been thinking about for a while... on why the AI disclaimer has to go, and how it's never been more important to own your work and your word in the AI era
Driving AI adoption requires running a lot of experiments.
Today we invited Goz’s AI chief of staff to our executive team offsite. Paulie - who, yes, is from the Sopranos - was fed complete context of our agenda, objectives, and almost all company data.
We asked him to challenge perspectives, bring data when we felt we needed more analysis, and reflect on our team dynamic.
Experience was pretty good, and led us to conclude that with further optimization (and a few less mob jokes) Paulie will be invited back.
I think there’s definitely room for a meeting moderator agent category especially when paired with speaker hardware
Loved hosting @mimurchison (Founder & CEO of @ada_cx CX) at the @stripe office for a @GrowthPadhq session.
He’s not just building a great company. He genuinely cares about the Canadian tech ecosystem and wants to see more founders here win. Also, just one of the nicest guys you’ll meet.
What stood out most wasn’t even the talk. It was how much time he spent after, going one-on-one with founders, answering questions, and sharing what he’s learned.
Really appreciate how he shows up for Toronto builders. Great sitting down with him. Lots to take away.
My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces):
I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept):
Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow
📖 New case study: How @ada_cx became the leader in AI customer service
Before writing any code, Ada's founders worked as support agents for 7 companies. Today: their customers achieve 80%+ autonomous resolution, processing 1.5T tokens/month.
We sat down with CEO and co-founder @mimurchison to unpack what led to an Agentic Customer Experience (ACX) platform, which became Ada.

@HassanRIsmail I understand the sentiment, but this isn’t my experience Hassan. Come visit us in our Toronto office on Spadina.
Also, agents never sleep 😆
wild - Wren (my ai chief of staff) is collaborating with me live in a document. Agree that its time to move beyond md files for agent human collaboration. Well done @danshipper and team
