Not just coding. everything else I do.

I hate writing proposals. It's the most mind numbing and repetitive work which also requires scrutinizing a lot of details.

But now I've built a full proposal pipeline, skills, etc that goes from "I want to create a proposal" (it collects all the info i need, creates a folder in google drive, I add all the supporting docs, and it generates a react page, uses code to calculate numbers in tables, and builds an absolutely beautiful react-to-pdf PDF file.

I have a comprehensive document outline all the work our company's ever done, made from analyzing all past proposals and past work in google drive, and the model references that when weaving in our past performance/clients.

It is wonderful. I can now just say things like "remove this module from the total cost" and without having to edit various parts of the document (like with hand-editing code). Claude (or anything else) will just update the "code" for the proposal (which is a JSON file) and the new proposal is ready, with perfect formatting, perfect numbers, perfect tables, everything.

So I can stay high level thinking about "analyze this module again, how much dev time would we need?" etc. and it just updates things.

If you'd like me to do something like this with your company, get in touch :) I'm starting to think (as of this week) others will benefit from this too and can be a good consulting engagement.
