【文章标题】:How I turned Claude into a self-improving PM assistant | Daniel Blum (PM, Melio) 【文章标题】:我是如何将Claude改造成自我进化的产品经理助理 | Daniel Blum(Melio产品经理)
【文章正文】: Daniel Blum 丹尼尔·布鲁姆
is a product manager at Melio, a B2B payments company, and one of the most systematic thinkers I’ve had on the show when it comes to personal AI infrastructure. He’s spent the past year building a Claude- and Cowork-based productivity system that manages his Notion board, processes his Slack and email, and runs self-improvement loops every week without needing to be prompted. Beyond his own workflow, Daniel built and scaled a “Workstation” onboarding plugin that gets any Melio employee up and running with a personalized Claude setup in about 15 minutes. 作为B2B支付公司Melio的产品经理,丹尼尔是我节目中关于个人AI基础设施最具系统思维的嘉宾之一。过去一年他构建了基于Claude和Cowork的生产力系统,能自动管理Notion看板、处理Slack和邮件,并每周自主运行自我改进循环。除个人工作流外,他还开发并推广了”工作站”入职插件,让任何Melio员工都能在15分钟内完成个性化Claude配置。
