Share your best AI workflow. We could show it to 2M+ people.

I’ve been using a simple AI workflow to capture and act on my best ideas before they get lost between meetings. It’s been so useful that I wanted to share it for others to borrow. Here’s what I do: Step-by-step: 1. While walking between meetings, I open Wispr Flow on my phone and dictate every idea and takeaway into an Apple Note, completely unstructured. The goal is to get everything out of my head before the next meeting overwrites it. 2. The notes sync automatically to my Mac, where a scheduled Claude task runs at the end of the day through the Claude Desktop app and simple connectors. It reads all the voice notes I’ve added. 3. Claude structures the notes in Notion, where I do most of my work, turning them into to-do tasks with key ideas, action items, and suggested deep-work blocks in my calendar for the bigger items. I no longer stress about forgetting important meeting takeaways because, by morning, I have actionable next steps waiting for me. I never have to touch my keyboard.

I quickly capture my thoughts in Apple Notes, which serves as my mobile inbox. A scheduled Claude Cowork skill reads those notes through the desktop connector on my MacBook and processes them into my calendar and Obsidian. I organize notes using either the “Forever Notes” method (https://www.myforevernotes.com/docs/journal) or a simple YYYYMMDD daily-note format. Time-log notes record a start time, end time, and description, then save that information to the calendar app. The calendar holds the raw data, which I can extract into a separate Excel sheet if necessary. Planned schedules are checked against existing calendar entries. If an entry is already present, it is highlighted; if it is missing, it is added. This saves me the time and effort of opening a link or editing multiple fields in the calendar app. Random thoughts are filed into my second brain in Obsidian. They are processed with templates, moved to specific folders, or intentionally tagged. Apple Notes, Obsidian, Apple Calendar, and Google Apps are free. The only subscription I need is a Claude account to use Claude Cowork. Step-by-step: 1. I capture thoughts and other information in Apple Notes on my mobile device. 2.
