Set up Claude to control your browser and automate repetitive hotel research for business travel. You’ll create a Claude in Chrome shortcut that searches current hotel pricing and availability, then returns recommended hotels in a Google Sheet. Once launched, the hotel research should take about 10–15 minutes to come back.

- A /hotel-picker Claude shortcut.
- A Google Sheet for hotel research results.
- A ranked list of hotel recommendations with fields like name, price per night, rating, distance to downtown, key amenities, and booking link.
What You Need
- Claude account, Pro or above.
- Claude in Chrome extension.
- Claude Desktop app, optional.
- Google Sheets.
Going Further
- After creating the workflow, you can reuse the same approach for other browser tasks, schedule workflows, teach Claude tasks with screen and voice recordings, or send results into Notion instead of Google Sheets.
You can use the extension in Chrome or from your Claude desktop app. If you are using it in the desktop app, make sure you have the model set to Haiku or you won’t be able to enable it.
