Distilled Decision Making

Distilled Decision Making

Feb 14, 2025

Every morning at 9am, post-workout, I receive an email from thatworks.ai distilling thousands of data points into what actually needs my attention: key HubSpot activity, meeting notes with customers, new onboarding sessions, fresh prospects in our pipeline.

Then come the overnight bug reports, followed by metrics that matter - like significant changes in our platform. Finally, any pressing ops or compliance tasks that need attention.

All it took was connecting our SaaS tools to thatworks.ai once. No daily prompting or questions needed – it just works.

Before my workday begins, I'm already oriented. When I reach my desk, I know exactly where to start and what needs to be accomplished. When I sync with Abesh (me in the UK, him in California), we skip the updates entirely. We jump straight to what matters: product and strategy. 90 minutes, 5pm to 6:30pm UK time.

That's all we need.

The time difference becomes a superpower. A tight window for real-time collaboration forces clarity on what needs discussion now versus what can happen async. When you can't rely on endless meetings, you get really good at delegation.

It's amazing how little time you actually need when you automate away the grunt work of context building.
