VERDICT
Useful for meeting notes. Keep it if it beats your current workflow within one week.

Best for

  • Use it for meeting notes.
  • Pair it with a concrete playbook instead of open-ended prompting.
  • Re-test it monthly against the manual baseline for the workflow.

Skip if

  • Skip it for team-wide search.
  • Skip it when the workflow needs data or permissions you cannot safely share.
  • Skip it when a simpler non-AI tool already completes the job faster.
