What is Cowork? A desktop AI tool that reads your files, controls apps on your screen, and connects to Google Classroom, Zoom, Gmail, Drive and more — all through plain conversation. The workflows below were built by describing a repetitive task and letting Cowork automate it.
Automations at a Glance
# | Workflow | Status | Time Saved | Demo |
1 | Documents × Google Drive Organiser | 2 hrs → 5 min | ||
2 | Zoom Sales Call → TIMS Logger | 10 min/call → 1 min | ||
3 | Google Classroom Homework Grader | 20 min/essay → 2 min | ||
4 | fika.clip → YouTube Shorts Scheduler | 15 min → 3 min | ||
5 | KakaoTalk Bulk Announcement Sender | Too slow currently |
1. Documents × Google Drive Cross-Reference Organiser
The problem
Years of documents accumulated locally — PDFs, videos, audio files, spreadsheets — with no clear system. Many were redundant copies of files already safely on Google Drive. Desktop and Downloads were both a mess.
How it works
1. Cowork scans the local folder and lists every file
2. Cross-references against Google Drive to identify duplicates
3. Rescues important files (e.g. HR recordings) to a dedicated safe folder
4. Moves everything else to __To Delete__ for manual review before permanent deletion
Tools used: macOS file system · Google Drive API
2. Zoom Sales Call → TIMS Auto-Logger
The problem
After every parent enquiry call, a staff member had to listen back, write a Korean summary, fill in student details, and manually log it to TIMS. Easy to forget, time-consuming, and inconsistent across staff.
How it works
1. Finish your Zoom “Enquiry” call as normal
2. Say “상담 기록” to Cowork — that’s it
3. Cowork fetches the Zoom transcript automatically
4. GPT generates a structured Korean TIMS summary (student name, subject, level, key notes)
5. You confirm the details → logged to TIMS
Tools used: Zoom MCP · TIMS web automation · OpenAI
3. Google Classroom Homework Auto-Grader
The problem
TAs spend 15–20 minutes per essay: reading the submission, scoring each IB criterion, writing line-by-line comments, and posting feedback back to Classroom. With multiple classes this is a huge time sink.
How it works
1. Script scans all English “2026 Semester” courses for ungraded submissions
2. Reads each student’s submitted Google Doc
3. GPT-4o grades using the IBtheTOP rubric manual — adapted to class level (PreDP / DP1 / DP2)
4. Adds inline comments directly on the Google Doc (like handwritten TA notes)
5. Fills in Criterion A / B / C / D scores on the Classroom rubric
6. Posts 200–300 word written feedback as a private comment
Tools used: Google Classroom API · Google Docs API · Drive API · OpenAI GPT-4o · Google Apps Script
4. fika.clip → YouTube Shorts Auto-Scheduler
The problem
After fika.clip processes a long video into short clips, each clip still had to be manually selected, titled, and scheduled in the upload UI — a repetitive multi-click process for every single clip.
How it works
1. Share your fika.clip results page URL with Cowork
2. Cowork opens the page in Chrome and reads all available clips
3. Selects the best clips and navigates the upload flow for each one
4. Schedules each to 더탑TV at spaced-out optimal posting times
Tools used: Claude in Chrome browser automation · fika.clip · YouTube
5. KakaoTalk Bulk Student Announcement Sender
The problem
Sending the same announcement to 10–20 students one by one on KakaoTalk is tedious. We wanted Cowork to handle the clicking so staff only write the message once.
Current status:
On Hold
The workflow works correctly, but desktop UI automation requires a screenshot-click cycle per action (~1–2 sec per click), making it slower than doing it manually. We’re waiting for the underlying technology to improve before using this in production.
Faster alternatives in the meantime
- KakaoTalk’s built-in forward/multi-share: send once → tap share → tick multiple recipients
- Bizmessage / Alimtalk via CRM for API-based instant sends
Tools used: Computer use (desktop automation) · KakaoTalk · Google Sheets
How to Build a New Automation
Anyone on the team can do this. No coding required.
1.
Describe the task in plain language. Explain what you do manually and why it’s repetitive. Cowork figures out the approach.
2.
Connect the right tools. Most automations need a plugin (Google Classroom, Zoom, Gmail…). Cowork will ask you to install it if needed.
3.
Preview before going live. Every workflow includes a dry-run mode — you see exactly what will happen before anything is changed or sent.
4.
Iterate. All the workflows above went through several rounds of refinement. Just keep asking.
