I mean it depends exactly what you do. But for me for example, dumping HUGE pdf docs for external systems / vendors in a folder and just.... asking claude about what I want to know works amazingly well (while giving access to the folder obviously), it never failed me or gave me wrong info since the latest few models.
I'd imagine just that could already be pretty useful for your line of work ?
That does require to have a claude subscription and using Opus 5.5 for it to be worth it or cost efficient.
Then you can compound this: give it access to more of these docs, have it memorize, create skills on where to find what, then move on to more and more "vague" prompts and you'll notice it knows what to search for, where, and how.
Quickly enough you can ask it to generate an artifact explaining really complex stuff super succinctly and gain a ton of time. You can ask it for links to its sources in your docs for each point it makes in order to easily confirm it doesn't make anything up etc...
But to reach that point, you might need to go step by step so you know you can trust it because it didn't fail you on the smaller, easily verified steps you tried early on.
