The big idea
If you find yourself pasting the same intro every chat, you should be using Claude Projects (or ChatGPT's equivalent). Upload the docs once, set the system instructions once, and every new chat starts with the context you wanted.
Some examples
- A Claude Project with your style guide makes every writing chat match your voice.
- Projects with your codebase docs let any chat answer architecture questions accurately.
- A Project with your meeting notes turns Claude into a cross-meeting search.
- ChatGPT custom GPTs with uploaded files work the same way for the OpenAI side.
Try it!
Make a Claude Project for one ongoing thing in your life (school, side project). Upload 3 docs, set instructions. Use it for a week.
