> Maybe you could pay someone to develop an OCR/ML application that could do this. But that project would never be profitable, even with the time savings. At the cost of a couple Claude subscriptions, it makes sense.

A better use of these Claude subscription would be to develop the app (which it can pretty much do at that point) and you could iterate to make the workflow even more efficient than your current one.

Nobody working there has the requisite experience to do this in a reasonable amount of time. These are not particularly tech-savvy folks, Claude use aside.

The difference between a tech-savyy person, and a non-tech-savyy person has always been mostly in the later's head, but this is even more true now that we have pocket assistants who can answer pretty much all of our questions in a language tuned to our level of understanding.

		Yes. And it might not even be worth it, as the AI agents gets cheaper and cheaper. Keep in mind that the task is fixed, so as the frontier of AI advances, you can switch to a cheaper trailing edge system and still get the same or even better performance for this task.
