Claude Cowork Tutorial from Cowork's Design Lead

Jenny Wen explains how she uses Claude Cowork for research synthesis, presentations, and early product ideas, then brings those outputs into team discussions and design iteration. She describes how Cowork grew from a year of prototypes and technical experiments into a product shipped during a ten-day push, and how its interface evolved toward a shared task list. The talk also covers Anthropic’s lightweight planning, internal feedback practices, and short-horizon visual product visions. Wen encourages designers to adapt to changing tools and use their engineering peers’ experimentation as a model.
