When Katja took over operations at a boutique marketing agency in Ljubljana, she inherited a stack of tools that barely talked to each other. Her five person team was spending more time managing software than doing actual client work.
Three Tools, Zero Efficiency
Landing pages went through a web designer who charged per revision. Dashboards lived in a spreadsheet that someone manually updated every Monday. Client reports were copy-pasted from three different platforms into a Google Doc. Every small change meant another email thread, another invoice, another week of waiting.
One of her team members, Matej, had been playing with Claude Code on his personal laptop. He built a full landing page for a supplement client in about fifteen minutes. The page had responsive layout, tracking pixels, conversion-optimized copy, and it looked better than what their freelance designer had been delivering.
Katja was sold. She told the whole team to try it.
The Setup That Broke Everyone
That's when things went sideways. Their content specialist, Anja, opened Claude Code on her work laptop and accidentally told it to "clean up the project directory." It deleted half her Downloads folder. Matej tried to help her set up a proper working environment, but Anja had never opened a terminal in her life. She spent two hours trying to install Node.js before giving up.
Their account manager, Luka, got Claude running but panicked when it started installing Python packages directly onto his machine. He shut his laptop and refused to touch it again.
"The tool itself wasn't the problem. The problem was running a powerful AI agent on personal computers used for everything from client calls to online banking."
Katja realized she needed Claude Code in an environment where it couldn't touch anything it wasn't supposed to, and where her non-technical team didn't need to install or configure a single thing.
Monday Morning, Five Workspaces
She signed the team up for AI Workspace on a Monday morning. By Monday afternoon, all five of them were building things.
Anja created a client reporting template by telling Claude "build me a professional PDF report layout with charts and our logo." Luka built a lead scoring calculator that their sales team still uses daily. Matej, the technical one, automated their entire morning campaign review process. No installations. No terminal commands. Just a browser tab and plain language instructions.
The Quiet Hero
The versioning feature turned out to be the quiet hero of the whole setup. When Anja accidentally told Claude to "rebuild this page from scratch" while she actually meant to iterate on the existing one, she just clicked the previous version and everything was back in seconds. No panic. No lost work. Just a quick restore and she kept going.
Three Tools Down, One to Go
Within a month, they dropped their landing page designer, cancelled their dashboard tool subscription, and replaced their reporting workflow entirely. The things they used to spend hours coordinating across multiple tools and people now took minutes.
Five people. One AI workspace each. And a lot more time for actual creative work.
