Claude Cowork for solo founders — the highest-ROI setup.
If you run a business alone, Cowork acts as the operations team you don't have. Here's the minimal setup.
Overview
Solo founders have the highest ROI from Cowork because the time-saving compounds with no team to share the load. The setup we recommend is narrower and deeper than what we'd suggest for an employee.
Connect just three things
• Gmail (the founder inbox).
• Calendar (your founder calendar, not a team calendar).
• Drive scoped to /Business/.
Set up three workflows
• Morning inbox triage — your first 10 minutes of the day.
• Weekly Friday summary of what you shipped — paste into LinkedIn or your monthly investor update.
• Quarterly customer-touch audit — "Who haven't I emailed in 90 days who I should reach out to?"
Add Code (CW-2) when
When your existing website is the bottleneck for selling. If you don't have a site, or your site is from 2018 and you wince when you share the link — CW-2 is the next step.
