5 Ways to Use AI that is Actually Useful
A handful of AI use cases keep showing up that are actually useful. Here are 5 of my favourites: 1. Searching specs and contracts. Tools like NotebookLM let you load 20+ documents and get answers cited back to the exact page. Replaces the "I know it's in there somewhere" problem. 2. Meeting notes. Fireflies, Gemini and Copilot all transcribe and summarise calls automatically. The real win isn't the transcript, it's the action items pulled out without anyone having to write them up. 3. Contract review and risk flagging. Run a subcontract or master agreement through AI before you sign and get a list of red flags ranked by severity. 4. Scope gap analysis before bidding. Compare drawings, specs and your scope letter to find what's missing before pricing. 5. Emails, RFIs, professional communication. The brain dump to professional draft step. Brief AI on what needs saying and the context and you've got 80% of the email. Full breakdown in the video

What AI Do You Use?
Hey everyone! I run ContractorOS with Tim and we're trying to get an idea of what AI you actually use? Claude has continued to be my go-to for a number of reasons but I understand many of you might have limitations with what you can actually use like if you are restricted to Copilot with your company or just prefer others.

@John Clemmer great! Chat and Cowork are good for different things so using both would make sense. Chat for simpler conversations where enough context can be present in the project/chat upload. Cowork is better when larger content is needed and for actually completing tasks. What can help if Cowork drifts of is having a strong CLAUDE.md file to instruct Claude on where things are in the folder you have it connected too.
Trying to get some clarity on terminology
Can I ask some opinions on what the correct terminology This is important for my software haha. I dont want to confuse people. 1. Tender vs Bid. Which word do you use to describe the set of documents your client sends you? 2. Direct vs Indirect cost. What do you call a cost you incure, but don't want to show in the cleient pricing schedule 3. Letter of offer. Is that the word you use to dsecribe the letter you submit to your client detailing your inclusions and exclusions?
