I was going to hire a $70K/year chief of staff. Then I spent a weekend building 7 knowledge pipelines with Claude Cowork + Notebook LM. Every Monday now, I open my inbox and see: → Meeting prep briefs for every call that week → A weekly research digest pulled from my docs → Client status summaries I didn't have to write → Slide decks pre-built from context, not blank slides The role I was about to pay $70K for automated, except it runs 24/7 and never takes a sick day. Here's what the pipelines actually do: - Pull from Gmail, Drive, Notion, Slack simultaneously - Extract what matters (decisions, names, dollar figures) - Assemble it into work artifacts (briefs, decks, digests) - Deliver before I ask for it - Learn what formats I actually use Not another "AI assistant that helps you brainstorm." Infrastructure that replaces a role. We deploy this internally before we take on any client. The build takes 4-6 hours if you know what you're doing. Releasing the full 7-pipeline playbook for 48 hours. 1️⃣ Connect with me 2️⃣ Comment "CHIEF" below (must be connected so I can DM it) Happy monday 👊
