I have Claude open all the time, and use it multiple times per day. The model(s) themselves are awesome, but my rating is more about the Mac app. It's clunky, even after all these months of using it, and it often doesn't do what it says (try to save a PDF of an artifact it's created for you? Good luck—it silently fails so often).

It's such a solid environment to work in. Because, even at this stage, there's a lot of things you can have going at one time, they should do more to support the UX by helping the user understand how changes in one place can impact another service they may have running. Overall though, I feel like I'm working smarter (not just working more easily) when I'm using it.

A CTO friend of mine introduced me to this back in March, and I haven't put it down since. It (and others like it, I know, Lovable, etc.) is one of those products that, you see the value almost immediately. I'm building an entire business for far less and in a much faster timeframe because this software exists. I have had some qualms with it, but honestly the team iterates on the software so quickly that most of my issues with it have been greatly reduced over the last 3-4 months. I'd love it if they could figure out how to make one project's agent speak to/ work with another project's agent. That would unlock so much more potential.
