In dieser Soloepisode ziehe ich mein persönliches Fazit aus 25 Stunden Podcastproduktion, 15 Interviews und einem Jahr, in dem meine Masterclass im Zentrum meiner Arbeit stand. Ich erkläre, warum Kampagnen meinen Workflow radikal vereinfacht haben, wieso ein Redaktionsplan nicht stresst, sondern befreit – und weshalb echte Kreativität nur entsteht, wenn man ihr bewusst Raum gibt. Außerdem teile ich meine Erkenntnisse zu einer zentralen Frage: Was performt besser – Audio oder Video auf Spotify? Ein kompakter Rückblick auf ein Jahr zwischen Strategie, Reichweitenaufbau und vielen Experimenten.

Fresh off the IMN Mortgage AI conference, Nathan shares how big mortgage companies are already using AI for underwriting, intake, call centers, and document review, while Dave walks through real, everyday ways he uses tools like ChatGPT in his own note business. From building amortization schedules and pricing notes at different yields, to summarizing 150-page collateral files, drafting social posts, and even brainstorming legal strategies for repeat squatters in Chicago, you'll see exactly how AI can become your on-call analyst, copywriter, and research assistant.

Let's be honest: backups are about as exciting as dusting your studio monitors or alphabetizing cables. But nothing will make you scream into the void faster than losing a session you swear you saved. In this episode of Inside the Recording Studio, Chris & Jody grab you by the shoulders and lovingly scream, “BACK UP YOUR STUFF!” They dive into backup options from “cheap but risky” to “Fort Knox for audio nerds.” Drives, RAIDs, clouds, offsite bunkers—okay, maybe not bunkers, but close. You'll hear their own cautionary tales, including technical ghosts that haunted their studios and files that pulled Houdini acts at the worst possible moment. The guys break down how they organize projects, why simple habits beat complicated systems, and how to build a backup routine that doesn't feel like flossing. It's equal parts education, comedy, and therapy for anyone who's ever lost a take. And yes, Friday Finds is here to save the day with tools that keep your sessions safer than your last ex's Netflix password. #music production workflow #home studio gear essentials #recording setup tips for producers #pro audio gear insights #DAW backup strategies #audio engineering tips #studio gear organization #creative workflow protection

In this episode, Aydin sits down with Ryan McCready, who went from hating AI to becoming one of the most creative AI-powered content builders on the internet. After getting laid off in mid-2025, Ryan realized that every job interview demanded AI fluency. So he went all-in, teaching himself Zapier, Lovable, Supabase, and advanced prompting to engineer a “Content Factory” that turns a webinar into blog posts, clips, and social content in minutes.He shares the mindset shift from “AI is plagiarism” to “AI is an input-output engine,” why content engineering is the future, what makes AI workflows actually work, and how breaking big tasks into many small steps is the secret to non-sloppy AI content.You'll see how he built a 30-step Zapier workflow that analyzes a webinar transcript, extracts frameworks and insights, turns them into pitches, builds outlines, writes social posts, and even generates clip candidates for Descript. If you create content or run marketing—this one is a masterclass.Timestamps0:23.00 – Why he believed AI was a “plagiarism machine”2:04.00 – Getting laid off and realizing every employer wanted AI skills4:37.00 – The workflow that kickstarted his learning (LinkedIn voice extraction + employee advocacy shares)5:40.00 – Learning Lovable and Supabase by building real projects6:51.00 – Why “everyone is a builder now” because of AI tools7:52.00 – Introducing “Content Engineering” and why most marketers can't do it9:03.00 – Example: turning a webinar into 10+ pieces of content10:58.00 – Why webinars usually die after they're aired—and why that's a waste11:43.00 – The “Webinar Content Flywheel” teaser16:30.00 – Why Ryan moved back from n8n to Zapier17:55.00 – Zapier vs. n8n: simplicity, stability, and architecture19:03.00 – “Start small”: a two-step Zap example20:09.00 – Interface demo: uploading a transcript and hitting “Go”21:22.00 – Why Zapier Interfaces make deployment easy22:40.00 – Step-by-step breakdown of the workflow24:06.00 – Example: webinar analysis output (themes, chapters, frameworks)27:02.00 – Creating three blog pitches from the transcript30:43.00 – Sending the pitches to Slack for review31:03.00 – Clip extraction workflow + Descript integration32:14.00 – How he uses Descript's “Underlord” to auto-cut clips33:20.00 – Why this beats automated clip tools like Riverside for B2B35:02.00 – Social content workflow (framework angle, data angle, hot take, wildcard)37:12.00 – Why prompting manually is wasteful—build once, automate forever40:11.00 – “Big → small → big” framework: the secret to non-sloppy AI content41:21.00 – Google's “AI content penalty” myth, according to Ryan42:47.00 – Why your input quality determines whether your AI output is good43:44.00 – What excites him most in the next 12 monthsTools & Technologies MentionedZapier: Automation platform used to chain 30+ steps together: analysis, pitch creation, clip extraction, social content, Notion updates, etc.AI by Zapier: Zapier's built-in LLM module used for analysis, extraction, outline generation, and writing.n8n: Open-source workflow automation platform.

About Nikhil Buduma:Nikhil Buduma is a San Francisco–based entrepreneur, scientist, and engineer working at the cutting edge of AI and healthcare. He is the co-founder and CEO of Ambience Healthcare, an AI platform built to supercharge every healthcare worker with intelligent automation. Under his leadership, Ambience has grown into one of the most well-funded AI healthcare startups in the world, raising over $343 million from top investors, including a16z, OpenAI, Kleiner Perkins, Oak HC/FT, Optum Ventures, and industry pioneers such as Jeff Dean and Pieter Abbeel. Before becoming CEO, Nikhil served as Ambience's Chief Scientist, leading the development of its core AI systems that streamline documentation, coding, and clinical workflows for healthcare systems, including the Cleveland Clinic and St. Luke's.Prior to Ambience, Nikhil co-founded Remedy Health, where he applied machine learning to advance value-based care models, backed by Khosla Ventures and Greylock. He also co-founded Lean On Me, a nonprofit organization that supports mental health and wellness across U.S. college campuses through anonymous peer-to-peer text support networks at institutions such as MIT, Duke, and UC Berkeley.A graduate and valedictorian of Bellarmine College Preparatory, Nikhil earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees in computer science and engineering from MIT. His career reflects a rare blend of technical mastery, compassion, and vision—using AI not to replace clinicians, but to restore the human joy in the practice of medicine.Things You'll Learn:Health systems often see low real-world usage of ambient tools; when daily adoption crosses most clinicians and visits, the ROI conversation becomes meaningful. This requires solving fundamentals across specialties, not just shipping features.If AI generates notes that don't align with payer rules and codes, organizations incur rework and risk. Integrating HCC, ICD-10, and CPT selection, along with supporting language, at the point of care helps prevent denials.Revenue integrity upside: Bringing CDI intelligence forward can reclaim large sums from work already done but not credited. This strengthens both financial sustainability and compliance posture.Continuous third-party auditing and domain-specific modeling are essential because general reasoning models often struggle with the nuances of revenue cycles. Independent validation builds organizational trust.Patient Summary anticipates questions and data needs before the visit, while Chart Chat answers complex, EHR-aware queries in seconds, helping to democratize top-tier standards of care in rural settings.Resources:Connect with and follow Nikhil Buduma on LinkedIn.Follow Ambience Healthcare on LinkedIn and visit their website.

Duri Bonin hat Patrick Arnecke zu sich in den Podcast eingeladen, weil er verstehen will, wie KI im realen Workflow hilft. Daraus ist die Serie «Back to the Future» entstanden: eine ruhige Bestandesaufnahme nach dem Hype – was heute schon funktioniert und wie man es sauber in die Praxis bringt. In dieser Folge geht es um Audiotranskription mit KI. Ausgangslage: In der Verwaltung, der Justiz und in vielen Bereichen der öffentlichen Hand werden täglich unzählige Gespräche geführt – Einvernahmen, Befragungen, Sitzungen. All diese Gespräche müssen protokolliert werden. Das kostet Zeit, bindet Ressourcen und birgt Qualitätsrisiken. Patrick erklärt, wie KI-gestützte Transkription heute helfen kann: - Wie KI gesprochenes Audio in Text umwandelt. - Warum das Protokollieren im Kanton Zürich dank der Revision der Strafprozessordnung nun auch nachgelagert möglich ist. - Welche Chancen sich daraus ergeben: weniger Unterbrüche, mehr Qualität, bessere Arbeitsabläufe. - Und weshalb trotz KI immer ein Mensch verantwortlich bleibt Patrick erklärt das kantonale Pilotprojekt Transcribo: eine lokale, sichere Lösung, die Audioaufnahmen automatisch verschriftlicht, Sprecher trennt und einen Editor bereitstellt, in dem Protokolle nachbearbeitet werden können. Duri und er sprechen über Genauigkeit, Fehlertoleranz, Datenschutz, On-Premise-Betrieb, und darüber, warum gute Aufnahmen wichtiger sind als man denkt. Ein weiteres Thema: Was verändert sich in der Kommunikation, wenn Menschen wissen, dass jedes Wort aufgenommen und transkribiert wird? KI ist nie nur Technik – sie ist Soziotechnik. Sie verändert Zusammenarbeit, Rollen, Verantwortung und Interaktion. Genau deshalb arbeitet der Kanton mit einem breiten Team aus Juristinnen, Protokollführenden, Data Scientists und Organisationsentwicklerinnen. KI ist Teamsport. Die Folge zeigt: Audiotranskription ist kein Gimmick, sondern ein Arbeitsinstrument, das bleibt. Es spart Zeit, steigert die Treffergenauigkeit und macht vertrauliche Gesprächsprozesse einfacher, sauberer und verlässlicher – solange man KI als Assistenz versteht und Verantwortung beim Menschen bleibt. Für wen ist diese Folge spannend? Für alle, die mit Gesprächen, Protokollen und komplexen Verfahren arbeiten – Justiz, Verwaltung, Bildung, Beratung, KMU – und wissen wollen, wie man Audiotranskription mit KI sicher, sinnvoll und skalierbar einführt. In der nächsten Folge sprechen Patrick und Duri über ein weiteres zentrales KI-Thema: Sprachvereinfachung. Back to the Future: - [#739 KI nach dem Hype – Wo hilft KI heute konkret? Wie einführen?](https://www.duribonin.ch/739-ki-nach-dem-hype-wo-hilft-ki-heute-konkret-wie-einfuehren/) - [#741 KI nach dem Hype: Semantische Suche – schneller finden, besser entscheiden](https://www.duribonin.ch/741-ki-nach-dem-hype-semantische-suche-schneller-finden-besser-entscheiden/) Die Podcasts "Auf dem Weg als Anwält:in" sind unter https://www.duribonin.ch/podcast/ oder auf allen üblichen Plattformen zu hören

AI is no longer a buzzword, it is quietly reshaping how companies work, hire, and compete. In this episode, I sit down with AI and automation expert (and repeat founder) Luke Thompson to unpack the real state of AI and what it means for business leaders. We talk about why free AI tools give you a false sense of security, why executives must lean in instead of banning AI, and how to build simple automations that tame your inbox and free up real time. Luke breaks down digital twins, MCP, agent workflows, and security risks in plain English, with practical examples you can apply this week. If you are a CEO, founder, or executive trying to decide what to do next with AI, this conversation is your roadmap. ----- Frustrated with your government contracting journey?

We recorded this episode live at the TLTF Summit and the energy in the room made it feel like the perfect place for a conversation about growth, training, and the rapid climb of legal tech. We grabbed our gear, claimed a corner in the podcast room, and pulled in two guests with front row seats to the changes hitting the industry. Joining us were Kyle Poe from Legora and our friend and guest host, Zena Applebaum of Harbor. The Summit attracts a focused group of founders, investors, and leaders, and the four of us jumped straight into what this event represents and what attendees hope to get from it.Kyle had been on the job for only two months, but Legora moves at a pace that feels closer to dog years. In that short time the team doubled, a new round of funding closed, and the company introduced a major product release. Kyle walked us through Legora's new Portal experience, which brings clients inside the legal workflow in a controlled, collaborative environment. Instead of long email chains and static work product, the Portal supports shared editing, direct review of diligence work, and a more responsive model for client engagement. In an era when clients expect quick turnarounds, this shift sets up a new dynamic for firms.Zena added helpful perspective from her prior trips to TLTF. She described the Summit as a place that rewards conversation, curiosity, and hallway exchanges. It is also a place to study the different stages of the legal tech journey, from early ideas on the startup stage to the seasoned players on the scale stage. She also brought timely news of Harbor's acquisition of Encore Technologies, a move that strengthens Harbor's ability to support training and adoption workflows across firms and corporate legal teams. Her focus on education paired well with Kyle's insights on how Legora approaches enablement through its team of legal engineers.Training became the heart of the conversation. We compared old habits with the expectations of a generation of associates who have been taught to avoid AI until they enter a firm. Kyle stressed the need to anchor attorney training in real use cases and to give them early wins so they build trust in the tools. He described the shift from task-based training to workflow-based thinking. We also talked about how AI is influencing both the pace and structure of client service. Kyle shared examples of how Legora uses prior work product to build integrated workflows, such as interrogatory response generators that pull from a full library of past responses. This not only speeds up production but also increases consistency and helps attorneys understand the reasoning behind revisions. Zena pushed the idea even further, noting that these systems give associates a chance to study the rationale behind changes in a way that human reviewers rarely have time to provide. This leads to better training and stronger validation of the final work product.We closed with our crystal ball question. Kyle sees more adoption on the horizon but also anticipates uneven impacts across different practices as firms figure out how to adjust their business models. Zena pointed to the operational challenges ahead, especially the pressure to invest in data management and cloud infrastructure that supports true AI enablement. Her message was clear. If firms want the benefits later, they need to start organizing the foundations now. This episode blends optimism with realism, and it highlights the practical work ahead for firms, vendors, and everyone in between. Tune in for the full conversation and get ready for a lively discussion recorded right in the middle of the Summit buzz.Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[Special Thanks to ⁠Legal Technology Hub⁠ for their sponsoring this episode.] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Workflow designs are intended to make things easier for employees. However, all too often, workflow designs become too complex, complicated, and convoluted. As a result, they can lead to stress and burnout. In this episode, Dr. Grajdek explores workflow designs through the lens of cognitive load theory as it applies to everyday work. She highlights variables such as click audits, number of fields, handoffs, and rework to identify “superfluous cognitive load.” Dr. Grajdek suggests focusing on defaults, templates, and single sources of truth as a solution to problematic workflow designs. Finally, she helps leaders to learn when to kill features and re-design workflow.

"The More You Know" - Robin Deal A million-gallon-a-day perspective, distilled into actionable steps. Robin Deal, AquaPure Product Manager at Hubbard-Hall unpacks how seasoned pros can squeeze more performance—and less sludge—out of industrial wastewater systems without compromising compliance or plant uptime.    From "clear water in a jar" to stable discharge in the field  Robin details a practical jar-testing workflow: start from upstream processes, target pH using hydroxide/sulfide solubility curves, choose the right coagulant (aluminum, iron, calcium, lanthanum, or organics), and validate against metals/COD/BOD/phosphorus before scaling. The test bench isn't the finish line; it's the feasibility gate when you're treating 150,000+ gpd.  Lean wastewater: cost center or controllable system?  Commodity choices (lime, alum, ferric) can generate 70–85% more sludge than optimized blends—driving hazardous waste hauling, clogging lines, and shortening pump life. Robin reframes the "penny-per-pound" price war into a total-system economics conversation: sludge recyclability, maintenance cycles, and realistic break-even targets.  PFAS: remove now, plan to destroy  For hex-chrome platers and other industrial dischargers, Robin shares near-term and emerging options: carbon filtration for immediate removal, evaporation/condensation where capital exists, and destruction pathways under evaluation—advanced oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, "thermobotic agglomeration," and ball milling—with an eye on evolving limits and cost realities.  One Water thinking for manufacturers  "Water is water." Robin introduces the One Water mindset for plant leaders: tighten internal loops, reduce community draw and discharge impact, and align non-contact, potable, and wastewater under one stewardship model. It's not a club—it's a decision framework that's already influencing global brands and drought-stressed regions.  Treat each round of testing as a hypothesis check, each chemical as a system lever, and each gallon as a shared resource. That's how leaders turn compliance into predictable results.

Our recent interview was all about measurements. The Wooster Community Hospital Health System in Wayne County, Ohio achieved a 20% improvement in their nurses' satisfaction with their MEDITECH EHR after a six-month effort. This video, interviewing Eric Gasser, Vice President of Information Systems and CIO, shows how statistics and survey data made that achievement possible.Gasser says that Wooster offers high quality care and has won awards. Yet, always interested in doing better, they took up a suggestion by MEDITECH to join the KLAS Arch Collaborative. As part of that collaborative, they surveyed their clinicians. Although they were mostly happy with their jobs, nurses found documentation to be a burden.Learn more about Wooster: https://www.woosterhospital.org/Learn more about MEDITECH: https://ehr.meditech.com/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

If your product strategy stops at the download, you're leaving impact—and revenue—on the table. In this conversation, I sit down with Ghazenfer Mansoor, CEO & founder of Technology Rivers, to talk about building software that actually gets used, loved, and shared. Ghazenfer has been in mobile since the pre-iPhone days and has led the build of nearly 60 apps, primarily in healthcare. We explore ideas from his forthcoming book, Beyond the Download, including why retention beats acquisition, when a mobile app truly makes sense (and when a web experience is smarter), and how AI-driven, proprietary workflows can become a company's real moat. We also step into leadership, including what it takes to fix “broken” projects, the values that guide his global remote team (transparency, fairness, and getting things done), and why peer networks and coaching matter for founders. It's a practical, fast-moving chat for leaders who want their technology to create efficiency, differentiation, and long-term value. Here are some highlights: -Retention over acquisition: Ghazenfer shares practical ways to design for daily use and bring people back because downloads without engagement aren't success. -“Do you really need an app?”: We unpack decision criteria for native vs. web, and why solving a real, repeat problem is the first gate before writing any code. -Workflow is the moat: How codifying proprietary processes, especially in healthcare and HIPAA-sensitive environments, creates efficiency, margin, and higher valuations. -Fixing broken projects: Common failure patterns (from feature chasing to UX missteps) and how to course-correct so you “build it right the first time.” -Leading a global team: The operating system behind Technology Rivers; clear KPIs, remote-first communication, fairness, and a growing commitment to women in tech. Plus the role of EO/Vistage-style peer groups and coaching for tough decisions. About the guest:  Ghazenfer Mansoor is the founder and CEO of Technology Rivers, a Washington, D.C.–area software firm specializing in HIPAA-compliant healthcare SaaS and mobile apps. A mobile veteran since the pre-iPhone era, he has led the build of 59+ apps and numerous AI-powered workflow platforms that help service businesses scale, boost margins, and increase valuation. Known for “building it right the first time,” Ghazenfer is frequently tapped to rescue broken software projects. He's the author of the forthcoming book Beyond the Download: How to Build Mobile Apps That People Love, Use, and Share Every Day and host of the podcast Lessons from the Leap.

Microsoft recently launched Dragon Copilot, a next-generation AI clinical assistant designed to transform how clinicians manage time-consuming administrative tasks - from documentation and referrals to after-visit summaries. By streamlining workflows and integrating seamlessly with electronic patient records (EPRs), it frees up valuable time for what matters most: patient care.The technology combines fine-tuned generative AI with Dragon Medical One's speech capabilities and the ambient AI of Dragon Ambient eXperience (DAX). It comes at a time when a Microsoft-commissioned report revealed that 40% of patients have experienced consultations where clinicians appeared too focused on their screens to fully engage. To find out more about Dragon Copilot I spoke to Dr Simon Wallace, Chief Clinical Information Officer at Microsoft UK and Ireland.Dr Wallace talks about his background, what Dragon Copilot does, the benefits of using Dragon Copilot and more.More about Dr Simon Wallace:Dr Simon Wallace is a medical doctor specialising in GP, hospital, and public health care with over 20 years of experience in healthcare transformation. He currently serves as the Chief Medical Information Officer (CMIO) and Director of Business Strategy for Microsoft UK & Ireland, where he leads the integration of health-tech innovations—especially AI and conversational systems—into clinical workflows.

Send us a textIf your pathology reports and other data could talk, what would they say about the future of precision medicine? The truth is, most labs already have the data—they're just not having a conversation with it.In this episode, I talk with Peter O'Toole, President and Chief Software Architect at mTuitive. We recorded live at Pathology Visions and are covering the power of structured data and how it's redefining the future of pathology reporting, AI, and clinical decision support.We explore how structured reporting evolved from checklists to intelligence, why data hygiene and workflow integration matter more than AI buzzwords, and how collaboration across companies like mTuitive is helping labs turn their reports into clinically actionable data.Highlights with Timestamps[00:00–05:40] Data as the new currency in pathology — Why structured data is the foundation for clinical, research, and trial insights.[05:40–10:30] AI & Large Language Models (LLMs) — What AI can (and can't) do when your data isn't structured.[10:30–19:25] AI workflow integration & voice recognition — How AI and structured reporting work together inside the LIS and IMS.[19:25–25:27] Overcoming resistance — Why pathologists initially resisted structured reports and how perceptions are shifting globally.[25:27–29:53] Decision support & beyond cancer — Expanding structured data to liver, skin, and even mental health pathology.[29:53–34:15] Collaboration as the catalyst — How partnerships create seamless ecosystems for pathology data.[34:15–37:03] Demo: Synoptic reporting in action — Real-time staging, automation, and compliance made easy.Resources from this EpisodemTuitive website: https://mtuitive.comCAP Synoptic Reporting Protocols – Standardized templates for structured pathology reports.Pathology Visions Conference 2025 – Event where this discussion took place.Key Takeaways✅ Structured reporting transforms pathology data from static text into actionable intelligence.✅ AI and LLMs complement structured data—but can't replace its clinical readiness.✅ Clean data in = clean data out—data hygiene defines AI reliability and efficiency.✅ Workflow integration and user-friendly design drive real-world adoption.✅ Structured data unlocks clinical trials access, research potential, and decision support tools.✅ Collaboration is key to building the connected ecosystem pathology needs.Support the showGet the "Digital Pathology 101" FREE E-book and join us!

Building B2B analytics and AI tools that people will actually pay for and use is hard. The reality is, your product won't deliver ROI if no one's using it. That's why first principles thinking says you have to solve the usage problem first. In this episode, I'll explain why the key to user adoption is designing with the flow of work—building your solution around the natural workflows of your users to minimize the behavior changes you're asking them to make. When users clearly see the value in your product, it becomes easier to sell and removes many product-related blockers along the way. We'll explore how product design impacts sales, the difference between buyers and users in enterprise contexts, and why challenging the “data/AI-first” mindset is essential. I'll also share practical ways to align features with user needs, reduce friction, and drive long-term adoption and impact. If you're ready to move beyond the dashboard and start building products that truly fit the way people work, this episode is for you.   Highlights/Skip to:  The core argument: why solving for user adoption first helps demonstrate ROI and facilitate sales in B2B analytics and AI products  (1:34) How showing the value to actual end users—not just buyers—makes it easier to sell your product (2:33) Why designing for outcomes instead of outputs (dashboards, etc) leads to better adoption and long-term product value (8:16) How to “see” beyond users' surface-level feature requests and solutions so you can solve for the actual, unspoken need—leading to an indispensable product (10:23) Reframing feature requests as design-actionable problems (12:07)  Solving for unspoken needs vs. customer-requested features and functions (15:51) Why “disruption” is the wrong approach for product development (21:19)   Quotes:  “Customers' tolerance for poorly designed B2B software has decreased significantly over the last decade. People now expect enterprise tools to function as smoothly and intuitively as the consumer apps they use every day.  Clunky software that slows down workflows is no longer acceptable, regardless of the data it provides. If your product frustrates users or requires extra effort to achieve results, adoption will suffer. Even the most powerful AI or analytics engine cannot compensate for a confusing or poorly structured interface. Enterprises now demand experiences that are seamless, efficient, and aligned with real workflows.    This shift means that product design is no longer a secondary consideration; it is critical to commercial success.  Founders and product leaders must prioritize usability, clarity, and delight in every interaction. Software that is difficult to use increases the risk of churn, lengthens sales cycles, and diminishes perceived value. Products must anticipate user needs and deliver solutions that integrate naturally into existing workflows.  The companies that succeed are the ones that treat user experience as a strategic differentiator. Ignoring this trend creates friction, frustration, and missed opportunities for adoption and revenue growth. Design quality is now inseparable from product value and market competitiveness.  The message is clear: if you want your product to be adopted, retain customers, and win in the market, UX must be central to your strategy.” —   “No user really wants to ‘check a dashboard' or use a feature for its own sake. Dashboards, charts, and tables are outputs, not solutions. What users care about is completing their tasks, solving their problems, and achieving meaningful results.  Designing around workflows rather than features ensures your product is indispensable. A workflow-first approach maps your solution to the actual tasks users perform in the real world.  When we understand the jobs users need to accomplish, we can build products that deliver real value and remove friction. Focusing solely on features or data can create bloated products that users ignore or struggle to use.  Outputs are meaningless if they do not fit into the context of a user's work. The key is to translate user needs into actionable workflows and design every element to support those flows.  This approach reduces cognitive load, improves adoption, and ensures the product's ROI is realized. It also allows you to anticipate challenges and design solutions that make workflows smoother, faster, and more efficient.  By centering design on actual tasks rather than arbitrary metrics, your product becomes a tool users can't imagine living without. Workflow-focused design directly ties to measurable outcomes for both end users and buyers. It shifts the conversation from features to value, making adoption, satisfaction, and revenue more predictable.” — “Just because a product is built with AI or powerful data capabilities doesn't mean anyone will adopt it. Long-term value comes from designing solutions that users cannot live without. It's about creating experiences that take people from frustration to satisfaction to delight.  Products must fit into users' natural workflows and improve their performance, efficiency, and outcomes. Buyers' perceived ROI is closely tied to meaningful adoption by end users. If users struggle, churn rises, and financial impact is diminished, regardless of technical sophistication.  Designing for delight ensures that the product becomes a positive force in the user's daily work. It strengthens engagement, reduces friction, and builds customer loyalty.  High-quality UX allows the product to demonstrate value automatically, without constant explanations or hand-holding. Delightful experiences encourage advocacy, referrals, and easier future sales.  The real power of design lies in aligning technical capabilities with human behavior and workflow.  When done correctly, this approach transforms a tool into an indispensable part of the user's job and a demonstrable asset for the business.  Focusing on usability, satisfaction, and delight creates long-term adoption and retention, which is the ultimate measure of product success.” — “Your product should enter the user's work stream like a raft on a river, moving in the same direction as their workflow. Users should not have to fight the current or stop their flow to use your tool.  Introducing friction or requiring users to change their behavior increases risk, even if the product delivers ROI. The more naturally your product aligns with existing workflows, the easier it is to adopt and the more likely it is to be retained.  Products that feel intuitive and effortless become indispensable, reducing conversations about usability during demos. By matching the flow of work, your solution improves satisfaction, accelerates adoption, and enhances perceived value.  Disrupting workflows without careful observation can create new problems, frustrate users, and slow down sales. The goal is to move users from frustration to satisfaction to delight, all while achieving the intended outcomes.  Designing with the flow of work ensures that every feature, interface element, and interaction fits seamlessly into the tasks users already perform. It allows users to focus on value instead of figuring out how to use the product.  This alignment is key to unlocking adoption, retaining customers, and building long-term loyalty.  Products that resist the natural workflow may demonstrate ROI on paper but fail in practice due to friction and low engagement.  Success requires designing a product that supports the user's journey downstream without interruption or extra effort.  When you achieve this, adoption becomes easier, sales conversations smoother, and long-term retention higher.” —

What if every morning you woke up to the biggest breakthroughs in your industry - already summarised and ranked before your first sip of coffee? In this Quick Win episode, I speak with Morgan Brown, Vice President of Product and Growth at Dropbox, about how he uses AI to simplify his workday - from automating his inbox to designing a daily AI briefing that scans and summarises the entire landscape of research papers, newsletters, tweets, and podcasts. Starting with one simple prompt, Morgan built a system that cuts through noise and delivers only what really matters. Morgan and I discuss: How Morgan uses AI to automate routine tasks like email triage and information curation. The process he followed to build a personalised daily AI news digest. Why his approach started not with coding, but with one simple question: What do I keep checking every day? How he refined his system through prompts, iteration, and feedback loops — just like editing a great piece of writing. The mindset shift from consuming more information to filtering for signal over noise. KEY QUOTES “I realised there was no way to stay on top of that volume consistently - so I started with a prompt.” “I didn’t start with coding or fancy tools. It started with asking, what sources do I keep checking and how can I pull them together?” Connect with Morgan Brown on X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and his website https://www.morganbrown.co/ Check out Morgan’s book Hacking Growth.

Brantley Pearce, Chief Technology Officer at RJ Young, discussed the integration of IT services, workflow automation, and workplace technology within the managed services sector. RJ Young, a 70-year-old organization with approximately 700 employees, has been providing managed services since 2012 and has seen significant growth, now generating $12 billion in revenue. The company emphasizes a collaborative approach, utilizing account managers as liaisons who work alongside specialists to deliver tailored solutions that meet client needs while maintaining operational efficiency.The conversation highlighted the growing importance of compliance, particularly in relation to the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) for Department of Defense contractors. RJ Young is actively engaging in this area, recognizing the demand for compliance services among small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) that often lack adequate security measures. Additionally, the firm is focusing on enhancing clients' security postures through network segmentation and the implementation of Security Operations Center (SOC) and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services.Pearce also addressed the challenges of workflow automation, noting that many organizations struggle to implement these solutions due to their day-to-day operational demands. While there is interest in AI and automation, the most effective solutions are those that are already integrated into existing platforms. The need for human involvement in understanding and optimizing business processes remains critical, as many clients are too occupied with immediate tasks to focus on long-term improvements.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, the discussion underscores the necessity of evolving service offerings to include compliance and security solutions while maintaining a human-centric approach. As automation technologies advance, the ability to provide strategic guidance and personalized service will differentiate successful MSPs in a competitive landscape. Engaging clients in meaningful conversations about their business goals and challenges will be essential for fostering long-term partnerships and driving growth.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I unpack how Microsoft is empowering business users with new Copilot agents that simplify app creation and workflow automation — no coding needed.Highlights00:11 — Microsoft has launched a series of new agents for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers in the Frontier Program: App Builder and Workflows, designed to accelerate the creation of AI-driven apps and workflows. These agents make it incredibly easy for general business users to utilize natural language in order to create apps, workflows, and even additional agents.00:46 — The Workflows agent allows users to automate tasks such as email, mail apps, and calendar management across Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, Planner, and other services like Approvals. Steps of the automation are displayed in real time and follow the same Copilot conversation, making it easy to add more or edit existing workflow steps.01:24 — In a blog post, Charles Lamanna, President of Business and Industry Copilot at Microsoft, outlined a use case for these new agents: "Imagine you're preparing for a product launch with a few multi-turn interactions. Create an app for a product launch process where teams can track launch milestones, assign tasks, and view campaign progress in a dashboard."01:37 — "Send a Teams update every Monday with upcoming launch deadlines and key tasks from Planner. Post reminders for approval deadlines in Teams channels. Build an agent that answers product launch questions like: “What's the next milestone?”, “How do I submit creative assets?”, or “When is the launch event?”, using SharePoint resources and Teams conversations."02:08 — Regarding Microsoft's strategy for Copilot: step one involved integrating Copilot everywhere to ensure easy access and increasing familiarity. Step two was the launch of Copilot Studio Lite, which allows any user to build agents easily. Now, step three is focusing on finding the off-the-shelf agents available to make complex tasks such as app development and workflow automation seamless. Visit Cloud Wars for more.
