Sarvves, last time you were on the show, you said, "I haven't been as excited or hyped up about anything recently than I am about Claude Co-work because it is so magical." You said, "I could take any local service business to $100,000 a month in 90 days using just Claude Co-work." And this was over 3 months ago. And your prompts have improved. Your prompts with Claude Co-work have improved. So now that you have been using claude co-work for so much longer, how do you feel about those previous statements? Sarvesh maybe it was an understatement. Uh that is what I see. That is what I feel now. Uh I uh honestly Claude has started to become even more better and as I started to use it more and more uh I could see the potential it has and with the right but see at at the end of the day Claude or any AI tool for that matter is like a Ferrari but you need to still drive it. So there has to be a a a human driving it. It it's not like it's not an autom. not a Tesla where it's self-driving it, but if you drive it the right way, the experience that it it it's going to give you and the results that's possible is just amazing. So, what I not not only I stand by it, I actually I will say it was an understatement when it released. Amazing. What are you showing us today? So today uh I have a 22 cloud prompt stack that we have been using along with what kind of output it's it's giving for for this top six seven of it and then I'm going to give away all of the cloud prompt stack for free as well. So the I love the audience that that watch you on that watch me on this channel. You guys have been amazing. So I'm just trying to give it back to the community here. Thank you Serves. Yeah. So your these are your improved prompts from using it non-stop with your agency. And how big is your agency? So we are a team of 40 now and actively hiring. Yes. Yeah. So if you are if you're someone who's passionate about SEO, go to the careers page at Alentra Marketing. And and you're using cloud co-working your agency non-stop and these are your improved prompts. Correct. Yes. We have probably 10 uh the max accounts uh along our agency. Everyone is using it very very actively all along. So yes uh claude has been and the and the prompts that I'm showing you these are active parts of the part of our agent CP our RS team is actively using them. Yes. All right. I'm hyped. I'm hyped. Awesome. So the very first prompt that uh that is very very important for claude uh which differentiates it from Chad GPT or Gemini or everyone from them is building a brain inside claude coa. So when I started using cloud one thing I was seeing is one problem that is there with all AI is is generic advice that they give about SEO to every question that you ask. So I solved that by first giving it a huge brain and building a huge brain inside cloud core about my business. Now this is the whole prompt where I am just telling it all of so let's just quickly go through it that here is everything you need to know about my business before we start any SEO. What is the business name address your Google business profile your website years in business? What is your team size? What are the service plus market? Everything that uh we do then what is your primary service? What are the secondary services? Which locations you cater to? Everything that is there for cloud to know. Just doing this itself, it massively changes it from a generic AI trying to suggest you and give suggestions to almost an SEO sitting into your business and giving you suggestions based on because here not only you are telling it about your business, you're telling it everything about your competitors. So you are telling it what is their GBP URL and uh website and you are taking also guess about why they may be beating you based on what you know and I know this takes 15 to 20 minutes to fill. So whenever we onboard a new client as well, we fill this information. We collect all of this information on onboarding as well. So that we know just doing this exercise right at the start makes the output that comes out of clot so so much better every time. So this is the first thing build a a brain inside your cloud about the SEO and then it starts acting as a a very experienced SEO almost a 14year-old SEO experienced guy sitting into your business and running that SEO rather than just giving generic advice. So that's the first thing we did is create a huge brain inside cloud cover. Can you scroll up? I want to see what it said uh right before that where like where you are scroll up a bit more to before the prompt starts open cloud co-work okay so you just paste this in so when you when you say um you're running a brain this is like are well can you show in cloud co-work where this goes right so typically what I would suggest is you go to the projects you create a new project and in that project you start with this chat and that and within that chat that should be the first chat that you do with it that here is everything that you need to know about the business and I've just taken an example for let's say Austin roofing company is my business this is all of the information these are uh and these are all of the keywords that I want to rank for and then these are all of the uh competitors and why they're beating us all of that information like I This will take a while. So this is not a very quick quick todo thing. But yes, take a weekend and just fill all of this information that any chat that you do with it after this point becomes so much more productive because claude know not only knows you, it knows all of your competitors, your top competitors, your keywords, what is your USP where you are lacking everything. It already knows and and has all of the context about it. So that's the first thing that we are going to do. This method of marketing is so effective I had to make sure it wasn't against Google's rules before I kept using it. It's a form of SEO I call compact keywords. Whereas most SEO focuses on putting up articles to answer questions how, what, when, compact keywords focuses on putting up dozens of pages that sell to searchers who are actually looking to buy. These pages rank on Google and convert so much better than normal that when I discovered this years ago, I couldn't believe this was allowed. It's less work, too. The average compact keywords landing page is only 415 words. Compact Keywords is a 13-hour deep course on getting sales with SEO. A customer said, "Compact Keywords contributed to a $4,000 sale within the first 6 weeks." Another customer said, "Give it to a junior employee. Have them follow it exactly as Edwards laid out. You don't have to do anything and you're going to gain a six-f figureure SEO level employee just by having them go through this course. Compact Keywords is about setting up an SEO funnel that brings you sales for years and years and years. It works with AI. It's less work than traditional SEO and it makes way more money. You can get it now at compactkeywords.com. Back to the podcast. Now next thing that we have done and let me actually show you the output and that output will actually and then we'll backtrack to the prompt. So the first thing uh for when we onboard a client and particularly because we work with a lot a lot of local businesses the GBP category audit is is an very very important thing uh because primary categories and secondary categories they are a huge ranking factor that take uh that determine whether you will not whether you or not you will rank for your keywords. So, and this is something where I'm not only just looking at it from an SEO agency point of view. I'm looking everything from a point of view of a business owner that even if you do not have an SEO agency, can you just take up this prompt and give it to Claude cowork and get an output in the format where it's usable for you where you can fix your SEO yourself? Is that something that you can do with that prompt? That's the whole idea I'm coming up with because yes, as an SEO agency, we may have 10 different ways to actually do this, right? We have 10 different Chrome extensions, 10 different tools to do it, but does a normal business owner have the same thing? Do they have the time and the bandwidth to actually install 10 different Chrome extensions and and export and then try to make sense? No. Right. So this is where this prompt comes into it that open Chrome and go to Google maps and for roof replacement Austin Texas. Notice which of my competitors show up in the map pack. So now you see because we built that brain and you don't need to tell it who we are and who those competitors are. it already knows and uh put everything in spreadsheet and basically what we have asked it to do is what what is the primary category for people who are ranking for roof replacement Austin what are the secondary categories that they have and what is my ranking are they uh the primary and secondary categories do I need to change and if so what are the ones that we should add and then it very clearly also puts everything in a nicel looking uh PDF report as well for you. So all of that is just done through because we created a brain and we created a we gave it a prompt and it's not even a log prompt. It's a very to the point prompt. So you can see let me actually just go here to this table. This will give us so roofing contractor is the uh uh cate primary category for everyone. As you can see there is the clear choice and then all the the different other uh for roof repair roof replacement Austin the other ones that have ranking have these ones and you can see I mean just from this if if an SEO team has to do this even the it would probably take them one one and a half hour to to do all of this research and put this into a PDF to send to the client right which you are doing yourself and so even if you have or an SEO team in in-house or if you're just doing it yourself, it is just giving you all of that information for you to understand. Now, at the same time, you have to understand that like I said, it's AI. So, if are you a real estate builder and construction company or not is something you have to decide yourself. So even though it is suggesting that three out of your five competitors has it, are you that three or are you similar to those three of the five competitors or are you one of those two competitors who are not into real estate building and construction that is a call that you still should take. That is why I said yes claude coowork is great and it it would make your life so much easier because it did all of the research for you and it you just have to take. So water damage restoration service. Now this is something one competitor has listed. But is that a service that we provide or no? You just decide yourself. But just this exercise itself would have taken I mean even an experienced SEO like me if I were to do it and put together everything probably one to two hours very easily. It would have taken that you can that you have just done with one single prompt. And uh I was seeing Claude do this on using my Chrome. It was so refreshing to to to just sit back, relax, and see. I was watching a YouTube video and then I was asking, "Okay, you just do it." Oh, man. Incredible. Dude, what I love about this is, you know, so many people, they try to automate SEO without knowing how to do SEO in the first place. And and so they don't know what results they're looking for. They don't know what should happen. They don't know enough details to give uh or they they don't know enough about SEO to give highly detailed prompts. And this is someone like I mean you before Cloud Co-work you were you still have this very experienced agency and you're still very experienced and so your prompts are extremely informed with best practices and and then your eyes are able to discern good output between bad output and then refine your prompts based on that. making the prompts that you give just yeah amazing thank you and despite all of this and I still say that yes drive it's it's such a powerful tool so drive it but but still drive it with caution don't just blindly follow the advice what Claude gives you but this was just one output now I'd like to show you a few different output so uh now what I the next thing that I have done is and let me show you the output so I I would love to start with output first and then go back again. So GBP attributes attributes uh are again an important part of Google business profile ranking. So things like wheelchair if your Google business uh location is wheelchair accessible and do you give online estimates? Is it LGBTQ friendly? All of that stuff. Now what the the prompt that we gave it is uh and you can see one thing that I I want to specifically point out is I just copy pasted the exact so if if I open this URL it just directly goes to the about section of my competitor's Google business profile. So if you go to overview and then click on about and then click on the URL listing from here that is what I put it into the uh uh prompt here. So that's one important caveat I wanted to mention and for each listing extract every visible attribute and tag things like veteran own free estimate all of that stuff. Now this is something that a lot of business owners that work with us they ask us that can you please research into what are uh the things that are competitor because these are the things that Google specifically highlights especially things like LGBTQ friendly. Now this gets special highlights into when someone is searching anything. All of this research itself again like I said it would take maybe one one or two hours between all of your competitors which was done within minutes by cloud go and this is us this is top three competitors and this is what the current situation is and then uh again it's saying that if now the same scenario again comes up here is you know your business better because claude cannot suggest you if if if your business is wheelchair accessible or no until unless you're mentioning it on your website pro proactively but you know if it is or not but from here you can see things like okay what are the stuff that your competitor has marked and if you should mark it one very important caveat also is that you can give claude coowork access to your Google business profile and it can even mark these on your behalf so it's not that it's just only giving you suggestions. It can go in and do those changes on your Google business profile. You just need to be logged into that Google business profile using your Google account. That's the only criteria that needs to be logged there. But at the same time, I still don't feel very comfortable just giving it direct access yet because I don't want to trigger uh any any Google's anti-PAM algorithm update. So I still we still use our team to do it but the all of the research and everything I we use it very very proactively because a it reduces our research time our efforts and these are all manual efforts that we were doing before right uh it would take hours just to compile all of this data which can now be done within minutes and you said you're just like you're playing a a YouTube video and then you're watching Claude co-work do the the research for you in a in a separate browser. Right. Yeah. And so I actually have a separate Mac Mini that that I bought just for cloud cowork and it it uses it to just work work. Uh so I have the monitor plugged in and I just see what it is doing and it's like it's almost to the point of a 24/7 uh employee for me for that matter and it's an assistant that's doing whatever I'm telling it to do. Amazing. Yes. That's that's why it's very very uh exciting there. But you can see from this report and uh that it's giving you a five minute action action plan also at the end of it that if it's if it's wheelchair accessible add that if it's at uh LGBTQ friend you because these are the things that your competitors have marked in your in your Google business profile and if you do that that's great and these are small things by the way I'll get into the bigger things as well very uh quickly but yes these are very small prompts just to start with that Google business profile you do these to begin with. Now, uh let's look at one bigger thing for example like uh backlink gap analysis uh that it has done has done. So for this keyword roof replacement Austin for example what I did was I gave it access to hrefs and there are two ways to give access to hrefs uh for that matter you can connect it through an MCP. So basically what MCP does is it's like an API you can directly give access to cloud uh for that second you can just give access to it using chrome and it opens up chrome goes to hrefs and does everything for you. So what I wanted to look at is how many links are are there for the sites that have that are ranking for roof replacement Austin how many links do we need all of that stuff a research that would probably take 3 4 5 hours for an experienced SEO to do so it it came out with and I specifically and if you look at the prompt here uh I I told it that you're acting as my senior SEO analyst and you have a access in Chrome and all of Open Chrome and go to keywords explorer and for the keyword roof replacement Austin you have to pull up all of the sites that are ranking and from that top 10 pick the top five pages that are similar to my business because my business is uh this one J Corner roofing I've given it here and so you have to ignore things like Yelp and Reddit because they're not similar to us right so it picked up these site here and it has done all of the research like Austin Long Rufin has 78 referring domains in these domain rating tiers like DR 70 + 5 links DR 50 to 693 links DR 30 to 495 links and so on. It is also saying that they have a lot of spam links uh and and it is as uh it is kind of saying that they have a lot of PBN links coming to the site as well. Similarly for all of these it has done this DR tier put it has put everything in the TR bucket for okay how many and it has also put in a red flag that there are a lot of lower quality links coming into these uh sites uh and based on that it has also what do you do when you see something like that when you see all these lowquality links for your competitors I'll mostly ignore it again because I know from a from an experience point of view that for example if it's saying DR0 to 29 we need 39 links I know for a fact that one maybe DR 50 plus or 70 plus link will have similar effect than maybe 20 DR five links right so we know that is where your strategy and your experience as an SEO would come into picture but the raw data and the raw analysis is something that uh Claude has already done for you so even if you you were clueless because a lot of times businesses are clueless about uh you wouldn't believe how many times I have conversations with businesses where they don't even know what how many links they may need or what sort of competition there could be in their niche. They feel like there is so much competition they are up against but in reality it when when we look together on a call or something the competition is not so much. This is something that uh with just with one prompt it could take away all of that stuff. And then you can also go back and forth. Right now I have not just for the purpose of this demonstration I have not even gone back and forth with it. You can chat with this report, right? You can ask it that have you looked at this, have you looked at this? Did you look at those links and you can see for Austin Longhorn Roofing, it has flagged so a lot of these links and for for many of them it has flagged many of these links as spam. Now you you can ask why those links were were flagged as spam. Can we ignore those links? All of that stuff can be done and based on that it has actually given you a list of link opportunity as well that what are the sites that are linking to two plus competitors. So it's even doing that for you. So if you for example if you are looking to acquire back links let's say in a in a in a good niche where it's not roofing if you're in the VPN niche for example where everyone is actively acquiring links and just this link gap analysis a lot of SEOs do right as a service that will find out who's linking to your competitors and will give you it as a service. You don't need that as a service anymore. That can be done by claude using this prompt where it will find you that what are the sites that link to two plus or three plus of your competitors and you can just reach to them and because if they're linking to multiple of your competitors, most probably they were paid to link out. That's a there's a high chance, right? I'm not saying 100% but there's a high chance that they were paid to to leisure like if you can see and it's also giving you why and how to pitch like what angle you can use to pitch. So it's doing just with one problem it's doing so much of your work that it would take any SEO agents even for us to do it take it would take multiple days to put all of this together into a report and to send to our clients. So that is what how we are reducing not only the workload but improving the overall deliverables and quality by using so it basically oneshoted the whole backling gap analysis for for a business man sick and that's one and uh then there's also next thing where I can go on and on as you can see as you can say this is great this is Okay. Then another thing another bit uh big thing that we have done is uh on page SEO audit for for a page. Now you can see the whole prompt here and actually let's look at the output and that will give you a complete understanding. So for this particular page the Dallas roofers the keyword was roof replacement Dallas that we gave it and then it has given us an over overall score of four out of 10 based on everything. First, it starts with what what are the things that needs to be fixed because three fixes that we wanted to rank for roof replacement Dallas and it's clearly telling us that neither the title tag nor the meta description nor the actual contain the keyword roof replacement Dallas which is what we want to rank for. Now, as a business owner, if you own this business, the Dallas roofers, you don't even need to come work with us. You just take this and give give it back to claude. Give it access to your WordPress uh and open that into into W open into Chrome and ask it to just change your homepage and this and I'll show you how detailed just this PDF is because if you just give it this back to claude and it will do everything for you. So first just starters it it's telling you that if you do this the impact would be high on your rankings and within 14 to 30 days you'd see massive improvement and both of us know that if your title tag meta description and H1 all three are not containing the keyword just adding that would be a huge advantage right for for ranking then so it's giving you the scores for for all three the URL slug it's saying that it's fine so it's it's not just making stuff up we know that uh as well as we're going through it. We know that it's not making stuff up. The current page hierarchy it's you can see after H1 H2 there's an H4 and there's no there are no H3s on the page completely. So and if you look at the prompt that I had given it uh it is also comparing us with all of the competitors if you see here. So now let's let me show you the prompt. Uh it this is our page and title, tag, meta description, everything it's checking the heading structure and it's comparing us with the sites that are ranking in top three top four for that particular keyword. So subtopic competitor coverage that this that we are missing. It is also giving you all of the missing subtopics and exact what should be our H2. So it is giving us a final page structure like H1, H2, H3 everything. This is this should be your page structure in order for us to rank. And you can see H1, H2, H3, everything is properly aligned. There are FAQs as well. Everything this is a decent page structure that that can actually help you rank really well. And then it is also critiquing your B and body copy. And this is just one short prompt, by the way. One short prompt that is doing everything in and generating a PDF report that also looks good. So paragraph length everything and it's also doing NLP entity coverage as well. So tools like surfer neuron writer what you do it's it's do it's doing that as well. what FAQ should be there what what is the fluff and and AI related stuff uh these words what just rewrite it or delete it it's doing that what CTA should be there supporting on page elements what is missing what what is the issue so if even if you just give this back to claude and say okay just help me fix all of this and you and open chrome and you have access to everything that itself you don't need an SEO agency for that matter uh not that I'm saying that it will be able to do 100% of it but even if it does 70 or 80% of it the 8020 rule still applies right you can still see a massive improvement then there is schema JSON all of that feature when you're when you when you're giving it access to WordPress so you you you've done this you you gave it access to WordPress and it's uh it does a very good job implementing without messing things excuse me without messing things up not a very good job a decent job. Yeah. Uh but you have to keep an eye on what it is doing and you may need to sometimes stop it. So with WordPress uh one thing I I I I'm not sure and and I think I I will look into it after the call as well if it has uh it it it has the API access uh yet uh for claude or the MCP as as it it's as it's called uh because if that comes in then it becomes much more easier because with Chrome some what it does a lot of times is it will take screenshots of your Chrome browser to figure out where things are. So what button is where? So in that case it takes it longer to understand okay where the button is and it can do stuff uh but yes you have to keep an eye but what I would rather suggest is generate everything from this and give it to your web developer. So I'm sure you can just get a web developer and pay them that okay get everything live on the site for me. Yeah. Or a lot of people they have their they they set up their own their own site and then they could do it themselves. Yeah. So if you if you're familiar with WordPress very well because this would do 90% of your job. All you would need is copy paste the new content from claude to your website and just make it look better. That's all you have to do. But just this and you can see the final scorec card everything. And even WordPress fix it. It's it's telling you exactly as a business owner if you don't necessarily know where to go and what to do like if you if you have to rewrite the title tag where to click and what to do everything has been mentioned here properly. So when I built this prompt I I included everything from a business person's perspective that you may not necessarily know exactly where everything is right. So I kept that in mind that yes, as an SEO agency, we know everything where it is and my developers, my SEO team know, but I wanted to make this as simple as possible for anyone to actually come in and implement. That's awesome. And this is you can see it's one shot and everything one-shoted, right? So that's that. Uh and then then the next thing is Google business profile posting strategy. And by the way, these are just just some of ones that I'm showing you. Uh these are 22 cloud prompts that we have here. So I have probably just done maybe four or five yet. Crazy. These are 20 22 that I have read. Crazy. Yeah. And this is this is going to be in the description or the episode too. Great. So, so this is what uh I I actually don't even want to bore the bore everyone with going into details of everyone, but yes, do try each of these one out and you'll find I think you know 22 is so many. So, just like the fact that you're showing the most important ones, the ones that people really need to to try and use. Yeah, these are the ones the most valuable ones. Correct. Yes. So let's just quickly touch what all uh these prompts do and that would give you uh give everyone an idea. So first thing was loading the business context. Second is GBP category audit that we just touched upon GPP attributes. We have already also looked at this is competitor review tier down. So what it does is looks at our uh Chrome profus profile and competitor's Google business profile. What is their review velocity? how many reviews they've gotten in 30 last 30 days, 60 days, 90 days. Are they getting reviews with services mentioned in them and locations mentioned in them? Because that's a huge ranking factor. If they have services mentioned, review and what are that those that are mentioned everything you'll get a nice report built there as well. Similarly, review response strategy. Uh what how are they responding to the reviews? How fast are they responding to the reviews? uh everything if there are negative reviews how are they apologizing or they uh offering any resolution are they getting defensive everything is there you'll very quickly get a sense of how all your competitors are actually going after it then uh three uh how are their fivestar reviews how are their fourst star everything that you need to know then the GBP posting strategy and if you ask any AI to build me a GBP posting strategy it will build it for you but the difference here is first this is going to analyze what your competition is doing and then it is going to build it for you. So there's a massive difference when once it understands and it will what post were done in the last 90 days posting frequency what kind of post whether they include images whether they have CTA everything is there and then it creates a a 8 weeks post plan for you. So that even that is sorted. Then services section what again it does analysis of uh your um competitors and then gives you a list of what are the services that are missing from your Google business profile. What are the uh descriptions for those services and their keyword range all of that stuff and it gives you to implement and you can actually again like I said ask it to implement it directly on your Google business profile as well. Then your description optimization. It will again look at what is it that your competitors are saying and and it will give everything for you. Photo audit. Now this is very very important because it is going to look at what kind of photos your competitors have and do they have uh is it uh team shots, job site photos, how many photos do they have, how many what is their photo uploading frequency. Now this is something if you manually even look at it you cannot tell it very clearly right how many photos they have uploaded in the last 30 days but this is everything that it's going to do for you and then it's coming it will become it will come up with a plan to for for you how you have to do it all of these were just for Google business profile and now it starts for keyword gap audit and then money page audit that we just looked at so I don't want to sick this is sick no and you know what else is so cool is is the little descriptions underneath why it's important, why it matters, all these all these you're giving statistics. Dude, this is sick. And your Google search console analysis as well. So you have to it will actually go log into your Google search console and export all of that data and do a lot of stuff. So just give everything a try and drop your experience in the comment section. and I'll be reading everything and and hopefully improving all of the prompts based on your feedback as well. Sesh, this is awesome. Awesome. Uh uh Okay. Is there Okay. So, what you know actually I I want to ask doing now like using this for so long and improving on your prompts, what sort of things have you seen happen? A uh first it's saving so much of our time and manual efforts. B uh it's it's also because uh of the the amount of work that can be done in in a short period of time, it's also shrinking the timeline of results. So what can be achieved in in maybe five months now can be achieved in three three and a half months because of so much work that can be put in and also from a from a human perspective the work that is is more repetitive and and just labor incentive but it's not very strategydriven if you just eliminate that what I have realized is team is also enjoying their work more and more because from an SEO perspective if you the the manual research work that would would have taken them days just to come up with all of that data. If that is done very quickly, they are enjoying their work and and that is resulting into much better results for our clients overall as well. Have there been any have there been any like unexpected issues where maybe somebody who's not an experienced SEO practitioner wouldn't know to to fix or go into any warnings that people need? I mean there could be uh I have not nothing that I've come across as as yet but yes I mean I would always say take this with a grain of salt with what you're doing you should know and ultimately what I would say is whatever output that plot gives it just ask it to fact check and double check everything just just add that one line to every output that it gives after so once it gives everything to you just say can you just fact fact check this or double check this for me. That itself will almost to the point of 80 to 90% it will reduce the issues that it could have caused. So that's one thing but yes it's still AI at the end of the day. So it could hallucinate it could give you that is why when I started I started with building a brand uh building a brain so that the hallucination just reduces as much as possible the output becomes as as crystal clear as possible but yes it's still AI at the end of the day. How how is um so how have these prompts changed from what what your prompts looked like 3 months ago? very much. I mean those prompts were very basic when I started and very primitive very primitive and it was more like just this much and now if you see uh the prompts these are all prompts. So from here onwards these are all promps. So it has just now it has just become so much more bigger and and it has become more much more refined and all of that as we have used it as as I've come across issues. So with the issues with output I've come across then I went back and fixed it in the original prompt and and my team has also helped me in in improving these prompts as they have used it more and more. That is how now that the the outputs that you are seeing is a result of those refinements because when we last time when we talked about cloud co work on when just launch the output may have been just probably one or two pages but now you can see everything has been thought about and taken care of in just one short prompt. Yeah, this is deep. And we were talking about this before, but I think it'd be cool if you could explain the difference between cloud co-work and and cloud code, which a lot of because you know people have shared, oh, I've done this amazing SEO thing with cloud code. I've done this amazing SEO thing with cloud co-work, right? From my understanding, I mean, a both cloud code and cloud code, the underlying algorithm is the same, which is opus or sonnet, whatever it is. Clot code is more for developers and and terminal command kind of things where you are doing more on the coding side of things. Clot co-work is more for average Joe where yes they can u it's more more visual it's more output driven uh you can get outputs like these very easily cloud code on the other hand was more for softwares related stuff building softwares and coding and all of that stuff that is why uh specifically anthropic came out with co-work so that average person average business owner average user can use it on a day-to-day basis and Honestly for for uh for me I started using cloud co-work more than cloud code because there's there's always that element that co it's cloud code it has to be for for developers whereas the name also cloud co-work sounds very very uh intuitive for anyone that that wants to use it. Yeah. And CL Claude Co-work is is like if you're non tech if you're non-technical and you want you want you want the power that you hear everybody talking about with Claude Claude Co-work is for you 100%. And even if you don't uh want to to use this for a long time just just try it once and you'll get hooked to it. I'm 100% certain. Are you um okay, let's say let's say somebody is new to cloud co-work and they're going to they're going to have to do all this stuff. Um is there anything but they're like afraid that you know they've heard like horror stories about AI deleting all these emails that shouldn't have been deleted, rearranging things on the desktop or or just deleting things that were in folders on your computer and now you don't know where they went. Um, one, like when you first started with Cloud Co-work, did you see any of that? Uh, and and two, if if you didn't, or even if you did, like how do you prevent it? Like, let's say you didn't see any of that, how did you prevent it? Or if you did see it, how did you fix it and and stop it from happening again? Right? I mean, yes, there is always that element associated with giving anything access to your computer. So one easiest way and this is I understand that this is not practical for everyone is to have a separate computer for for cloud it is not possible it is not feasible I understand that at the same time if you if you're doing things diligently if your prompt is mentioning it's not it has not gone rogue for me till now and I am not I've been I'm very active on Twitter I have not come across anything where it just went rogue and it started deleting all of your files but Yes, priv privacy is a myth. If you are going to use it, you have to give it access to it to all of your folders, files, and it will use your computer. It will save files onto it. So, yes, that's it's a double-edged sword, but the upside to it is so much that uh it's almost like how do you stop yourself from using it? Yeah. What What are some other cool things that you've done with it? uh for my in for my tax filings so much stuff I'm I'm using it for uh I so the we need to to download uh think so so PDFs this PDF that we need to download it and one very important thing I and I gave it access to my email in Chrome and I downloaded 8 years worth of PDF for me in probably 1 hour that would have just taken me probably a day full day to just and because It's on on my personal email. I could not even give access to it to anyone uh to download it. And I I know I was taking a risk that I was taking a gamble. But like I said, I was watching a movie and I and I was just doing it right in front of me. So I was I was not letting it just handle it completely off. I was just keeping an eye on it that it's doing it right. And it created all of the nice neat looking folders for each year, each month. And that itself just saved me one day, one full day of work. And it was it would have been such a labor intensive and manual work. And I I couldn't really give someone access to my personal email. That that was the main problem. So I was very thankful that it just came out in the right right time. Wow. And so it's um and it it was it was downloading what? It was for for accounting. Yes. Yes, it was for accounting and it was generating it was downloading PDFs from my so it was basically downloading uh in what uh remittances PDF. I don't want to bore you with that but yes 8 years worth of PDF from my email. Wow that's crazy. And how long did it take to do that? It probably took it two two and a half hours for Claude to do it. Oh my gosh. you're just watching a movie and um and and you so it's just it's important to note. So you gave it access to your email, you've given it all this important access. You've never had any issues. Yes. So far nothing. So yeah, touch that. But yes, so far nothing yet. No, that's just that's that's great. That's great to say. That's great to explain. Um man, Sarvash, I love I've been using it for for so much so much social media, YouTube, Twitter. Really? For social media? Yeah. Yeah. Very much. Very. Yeah. Very actively. What are you doing with cloud co-work for social media and for YouTube? So for YouTube um all of my titles uh video ideas uh uh analysis of videos even on Twitter every tweet that I'm doing uh analysis of of other tweets everything is done by cloud. And you're crushing on X. You you do so well on X and 80% of it the credit goes to Claude. I still like you take 20% of the credit but yeah still come on n you're dude you're a great you're a dude you're a great marketer you're a great marketer and writer the way that that you speak has enthusiasm you say interesting things you give you give some flourish to the things that you say come on like a lot of SEOs they don't they don't come on the show and they have the they don't have the charisma to go oh man coowork just oneshotted this report what But yeah, I mean just coming on to your show and and just one thing that it's been thousand thousand plus episodes is just mind-blowing. I mean uh I wish I could say this someday but you have all just because you have already done a thousand plus episodes man that's just crazy. I I mean it's wow is just an understatement for thousand plus episodes of anything. Really I appreciate I appreciate that. I mean, dude, I'm I'm I say, "Wow." Looking at I'm like actually scrolling through your uh through your ex right now, and it's just you post such good stuff. My You posted um you posted a golf video of Rory, and you said, "My wife thinks I'm obsessed, but I will keep repeating this. Claude plus SEO is going to create more self-made millionaires this year than the last decade combined." Don't bookmark mark this if it crosses your timeline. just paste this entire thing into cloud. Thank me later. And then you shared it with 20 cloud prompts. And I think is this the same article or is this No, no, this is that's an article on X. Yeah. But but the this article is more updated version of it. Yeah. Amazing. It's so dude you picked you picked such a good video of Rory. Oh my gosh. Uh Sarves, you're awesome. Thank you for Thank you. This is your I think your third or fourth time on the show and I hope we have many more actually probably fourth or fifth. Yeah, fourth or fifth and and dude like um what you have done also with Instagram and how you have grown a really large Instagram in India with completely AI video. I want to do just an entire episode on that. That is so impressive. Like so just for background I'm not we'll do another episode on how you do it but you grew a very popular IG and anyone can go just search your name on Instagram and find your IG. You don't record any of the videos yourself. You don't write the scripts. You don't have research. You literally just have a team using AI. They're doing the research. They're they're using AI with your face and your voice and then editing videos and putting in B-roll and all of this stuff and you don't touch it at all. You don't think about it at all. And you have grown. How many followers do you have on Instagram now? Probably around 280 28 290K somewhere in between, dude. And and you're getting real engagement. You're getting millions. I think if I remember correctly, it was like millions of views. Yeah. Uh, it's 11 million in the last 30 days. 11 million views in the last 30 days. Come on. And this is And you don't think about it at all. You don't touch it. No, we're going to do an episode on that. You are a you I'm telling you, you're I mean, you know it. You're a marketing killer. Let's do that. And u everyone, if you if you're watching this, just check out my Instagram and tell us in the comments if those videos look AI. Yeah, because I've not recorded even a single video. I So, so like me when I first looked at that, I really thought that it was you because I was, you know, the the cutaways happened so many times. The B-roll happened so many times that I didn't just not that I didn't I didn't notice any artifacts or any giveaways. And maybe it's strategic when the B-roll happens and the cutaways happen, but I really thought it was you until you told me it wasn't. And yeah, and you told me all your friends think that it's you, Yeah. Oh, everyone. So, the team is doing a good job. I mean, I can't take credit for it's it's all teams. Well, you built a you built a good team. You built a you built a good team. Yeah. Um, man, we could do another episode on with 40 people on like hire hiring practices and things that you've learned.
