What they did
The system uses Claude, OpenClaw, n8n and Supabase on a home Mac Mini. Browser automation connects legacy dealership tools, while a scheduled morning report, CRM triage and desk-log updates reduce repetitive data work.
How it went
The manager reports saving about two hours of daily manual work and receiving the morning report at 6:30 a.m.
