Early-stage startups can't hire for every function. You need investor decks, financial models, competitive analysis, product specs, and customer research. You don't have a finance team, a strategy team, or a research team. Cowork fills those gaps.
Powered by Claude Cowork. Set up by NYC Claw.
You're doing every job at once. Most of them aren't why you started the company.
Building pitch decks, updating financial models, researching investors, writing outreach emails, preparing for due diligence. A single fundraising round can consume a founder's entire quarter. Meanwhile, the product and customers wait.
You talk to 10 users per week. The insights live in your head, in scattered notes, or in call recordings nobody watches. Synthesizing patterns across 50 interviews is something you keep meaning to do.
You built a competitive landscape last quarter. Half of it is already wrong. Competitors ship new features, change pricing, raise rounds. Nobody on your team has time to keep it current.
Writing a proper PRD with user stories, acceptance criteria, technical requirements, and scope boundaries takes days. For a small team moving fast, the spec often gets skipped entirely. Then scope creeps.
Workflows founders are running right now to move faster with smaller teams.
Cowork pulls your latest metrics, market data, and company narrative to build or update pitch deck content. Generates slide-by-slide content with data points, competitive positioning, and financial highlights. Uses your brand templates via Google Slides or PowerPoint. You refine the story, Cowork handles the assembly.
Give Cowork your assumptions: growth rate, burn rate, unit economics. It builds or updates a financial model in Excel or Google Sheets. Revenue projections, cash runway scenarios, sensitivity analysis. When assumptions change mid-fundraise, updating the model takes minutes instead of half a day.
Cowork reads interview transcripts, call recordings (via Fireflies connector), survey responses, and support tickets. Produces a synthesis document: common pain points ranked by frequency, feature requests mapped to customer segments, quotes organized by theme. Runs as a scheduled weekly digest.
Describe what you want to build. Cowork generates a complete PRD: user stories, acceptance criteria, technical considerations, scope boundaries, and dependencies. Pulls context from your existing docs in Notion or Google Drive. Edit the spec, not a blank page.
Scheduled weekly: Cowork researches competitors via web search and public data. Tracks pricing changes, feature launches, funding announcements, and hiring patterns. Maintains a living competitive document that's always current. No more stale spreadsheets from last quarter.
Cowork researches investors: portfolio fit, check size, stage preference, thesis alignment. Generates personalized outreach emails. Tracks which investors you've contacted and their response status via HubSpot or your CRM connector. Your pipeline stays organized without a dedicated ops person.
Every setup is configured for your startup's specific stage, market, and tools.
We build this around your stack, your stage, and what you actually need to get done this quarter.
Skills are reusable commands built for your specific workflows. We create custom skills for deck builder commands, financial model templates, research synthesis, and PRD generation. Your team runs a single command and gets structured output instead of starting from scratch.
We configure the right plugins for startup workflows: /sales for investor outreach, /product-management for specs, /marketing for competitive intel. Each plugin gives Cowork domain-specific capabilities your team can use immediately.
We connect Cowork to the tools your startup already uses: Google Drive for docs, Notion for knowledge bases, Slack for team communication, HubSpot for CRM, Fireflies for call transcripts, and LinkedIn for investor research. No new tools to learn.
Set up recurring workflows that run automatically: weekly competitive updates, weekly customer insight digests, monthly investor pipeline reviews. Cowork runs these on schedule and delivers results to your Slack channel. Work gets done even when nobody triggers it.
