I didn’t think I would write one of the posts “This tool changed everything.” They usually feel … exaggerated? But I am here, because the shift in my work was real enough that colleagues started asking what I do differently.
It was not some dramatic moments. No lamp. Just a gradual realization that my relationship with information has changed mainly after adding Claude desktop with MCP to my workflow.
Like most PMS, I used to constantly switch between tools throughout the day. Search tabs everywhere. Documents scattered across drives. Endless stagnation. Analysis information panels. It was just “How are things”, right? The tax we pay for work at the intersection of users, business and technology.
I could not completely appreciate it until the Clauds desktop was the amount of mental frequency range that cost me this retail. Continuous update of the context. Anxiety about the visions of cracks. Energy that spends tools in management rather than problem solving.
If you are in the product, you will learn about the feeling – we are planning besieged machines in fragmented digital workshops. What is the other for me is the presence of these MCP capabilities all work together:
TAVILY-Search and Fetch got out of TAB chaos. Instead of 30+ from the browser windows, I can pull exactly what I need and trust there will be when you need again.
Directory_tree and Seect_files gave me an organized way to organize the product’s knowledge without having to remember a place that lived everything.
Web automation with PUPPEERER tools means that I can stop manually checking the repeated competitors.
But frankly? The Sequentialicking tool was the game changed. Having space to work through complicated step -by -step decisions, with the ability to review thinking and interact to different scenarios – when I realized that this was not just another productive tool.
Real things I did (I am still somewhat amazed)
Two modern projects showed me how different this approach:
I had to analyze the research product in the institutions in the opponent. Not only the feature things, but really understanding what was happening under the hood. Using Claude search possibilities, you have built a detailed detailed analysis of the specific signs and parameters that you are likely to use in their algorithm. It has been withdrawn from tons of online sources, and found patterns that may have missed me, and they all collected them in something coherent.
Once again, a friend was desperate in a marketing campaign. Everything from the strategy to all the assets of the campaign needed to create as quickly as possible. It has helped to develop a full marketing plan with all artifacts – LinkedIn posts, email sequence, intended page content, and even conference booth materials. We did in 3 hours that would have taken other weeks. My friend was the earthly.
Human things – what really surprised me
Productivity gains were expected (and welcome!). What I did not expect is how this will change my thinking quality.
When your mind is not constantly switching tasks and managing excess information, you start noticing things. I found myself working deeper sympathy for users because I am already present in conversations instead of blocked the notes. I see contacts between the comments that have already lived in separate tools and mental spaces.
And the quality of my decision? It is better. Not because artificial intelligence makes decisions (not), but because I have a mental space to consider more angles and completely explore the effects.
Some days, I pick myself at the end of a complex working session and realize that I once felt that the scattered feeling and immersion that was my continuous companion. This is when you hit me the amount of energy that I was spending only in managing information rather than thinking about it.
This is not about AI replacing the product thinking. It comes to removing friction that hindered the best thinking in the product. Switching context. The tool is sorcery. Constant fear of losing important communications.
I still have a lot to learn about integrating these tools into my workflow. But I have never returned to the fragmented digital workplace that I have accepted for years. Mental clarity is very valuable.
My curiosity – Did anyone else find a tool or approach that changed the way you think, and not just how quickly your work is? Get your story below – I love comparing the notes.
