Cowork is Claude Code for the rest of us. It's a new way to collaborate with Claude that extends Claude's capabilities beyond coding to any kind of knowledge work. I tested it by asking Claude to find data in PostHog about how many people clicked a specific button. Normally, I'd have to ask an engineer or learn the API myself. Claude just opened a browser, navigated to PostHog, found the right dashboard, and told me: 4,000 clicks. It feels much less like a back-and-forth and much more like leaving messages for a coworker. You can start a task, walk away, and come back to finished work. The future of AI assistants is agentic — they don't just answer questions, they do the work.
