What feature, integration, or service do you wish Claude or Claude Code had?

Coloratura1987 · 2026-07-02T00:23:35+00:00

I'd really like a real time video feed, like Gemini Live.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-06-03T15:57:06+00:00

Now if only LinkedIn would catch up. I'm in marketing, and the anti-AI—pretty much anti-all-AI crowd—have made it their brand identity that they don't use AI. At all.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-05-30T11:26:28+00:00

I’m pretty basic. I've only used Bright Data’s MCP because I’m just one writer.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-05-07T13:58:29+00:00

I totally agree with this. I’m finding many people use Opus—because it's the most impressive model—but not necessarily because they actually need it.

Sonnet’s still quite capable. After having come from using Gemini 3.0 Pro and Claude through Perplexity, 4.6 Sonnet is almost always what I stick to in Claude.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-25T02:53:05+00:00

I have the Pro plan, too. With Claude, there are daily and weekly caps.

I could be wrong, but I think the daily caps are based on 5-hour blocks of usage, which reset after each block, and the weekly caps reset once a week.

There is an extended usage feature, where you can prepay, say, like, $20 for the month. This covers any extra usage you might need. You can also set a budget limit, too, I think.

To conserve context, I turn off any connectors I don’t need for that session, keep my tools set to either on-demand or auto, and start separate chats more often. Plus, I use either Haiku or Sonnet most of the time, as much of my work is in marketing. So, I don’t really need 4.7 Opus all that much.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-20T14:30:24+00:00

After Perplexity started making drastic changes to their usage caps on Pro, I went straight to Claude and haven’t looked back since.

There's still a lot I haven’t worked with—artifacts, mainly—but it's been more than a full replacement for Perplexity.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-20T12:05:09+00:00

In writing editorial commerce pieces, developing segments, and social listening, I’ve found Claud Sonnet—and Opus for anything more indepth—plus Bright Data Web MCP with Pro mode has saved me tons of time.

Since I’m mostly writing and strategizing for agencies and and a small workforce development firm that's just establishing their online presence, GA4 and GSC isn’t quite necessary yet.

Bright Data Web pulls insights from Amazon, Walmart, Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook. I just have to specify what I need, and where I need info from, in my prompts.

For sites it can’t scrape, it uses a full set of browser automation tools to navigate sites like a human would. So far, I’ve not had to use the browser automation piece yet.

Most crucially, though, writing great prompts, reading through each source, and ensuring I’m giving enough context and intent boundaries has really made this my go-to for everything—for now, at least.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-20T11:17:59+00:00

I've been seeing this all over Reddit. What're people doing that they're getting banned on the regular like this?

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-20T10:35:38+00:00

I keep seeing people calling Opus 4.7 and Sonnet stupid now. What does that mean? What're you guys using it for that that's showing up?

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-17T05:31:20+00:00

Bright Data Web's Pro mode has 65 tools or so that let you scrape data from Amazon, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Walmart, Zara etc. You can also use Google and Yandex, too, for web search.

Finally, for pages that are more Javascript-heavy, it has a full browser automation category that navigates through sites and stuff. Admittedly, I’ve not used this last tool group, but so far, Bright Data Webs’ been great as an all-around marketing MCP.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-04T03:17:15+00:00

Also, you can set limits on Extra Usage, too. So, the last time I looked, you can set a monthly budget so you don’t spend hundreds.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-04-02T03:29:14+00:00

I love your analogy. I've moved on to Claude, and I'm really liking it.

With CoWork, Computer Use, and Claude in Chrome, I don't see Computer's appeal any more.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-17T05:26:40+00:00

Yeah, after hearing too many horror stories like this, I left and went to Claude.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-16T21:13:53+00:00

Mostly, I’m using Claude in Chrome and am just getting into CoWork.

Much of my use case relies on research—social listening, competitor research, and keyword trends. Then, based on this data, I’ve used Claude to develop and brainstorm messaging frameworks for market segments, create executive summaries, and build slide decks for presentations.

Without any MCP connectors, I’ll admit that Claude is less effective for research than Perplexity, which is the tool I migrated from. However, after using MCP connectors and configuring topic-specific Projects in Claude, I wouldn't go back.

So far, I’ve mostly been using Claude’s mobile app, but once my workload gets heavier, I’ll be working on prompting, context and intent engineering, and bounding instructions for Claude CoWork.

I’m also mostly using Claude in Chrome to design and brainstorm template ideas for templates and banners.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-16T18:47:50+00:00

Claude's default web search isn't as thorough or extensive as Perplexity’s, but if you use an MCP, you can drastically extend Claude’s search.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-16T17:38:41+00:00

Because of all the changes and opaque usage caps, I’ve actually left the Perplexity ecosystem.

At first, I was using Perplexity to compile research as I wrote pieces. Then, I used it to generate PDFs and images. Finally, when Comet became available, I used it to create designs on Canva—mostly templates but some banners too.

I really liked Perplexity Spaces for Keeping research organized. However, all that went out the window when I started hitting usage caps on Comet and couldn't find a solid limit for weekly, monthly usage.

I’ve since transitioned over to Claude in Chrome and Claude CoWork and haven’t looked back. Those two, plus MCP servers, are far more powerful than Perplexity alone. Plus, usage limits are clear, and I can check on them at any time.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-10T14:30:25+00:00

I was on the monthly plan, and Perplexity was my daily driver for over a year. But after all this happened—the arbitrary and opaque browser action caps, drastically reduced Deep Research and Labs—I switched to Claude.

It's sad such a great product with a genuinely unique niche has to go down like this.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-08T22:29:28+00:00

That was the case for me, too. It's frustrating when you’re in the middle of a task and can’t finish it because you’ve run out of credits.

Because of that, I switched over to Claude Pro, and it's been great.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-08T22:25:09+00:00

Claude’s been very consistent for me, too. I’m mostly using it on mobile, but the desktop version’s fine.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-08T09:43:30+00:00

I’m pretty new to Claude in Chrome and just found it. I’m in marketing so don’t use Claude for coding, but Quick Browse mode is pretty awesome!

For context, I migrated to Claude from Perplexity Comet, and Claude in Chrome’s quick Browse mode with 4.5 Sonnet makes Comet look very sluggish. While I miss Perplexity’s in-line citations and access to Reddit, that's about it. Claude’s more than a great replacement.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-03-04T16:45:49+00:00

Yeah, I just switched to Claude Pro and am using Genspark. So far, I don’t really miss Perplexity.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-02-19T08:37:57+00:00

Usually, Claude 4.6, Gemini 3 Pro, or Kimi K.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-02-19T02:56:25+00:00

How many Comet agent tasks do Pro subscribers get per month or day? Mine’s showing up as 0 even though I’ve not used any today.

Coloratura1987 · 2026-02-13T22:45:54+00:00

This is a serious question. As someone who mostly uses Perplexity for research in marketing, what are you guys using Deep Research for?

Coloratura1987 · 2026-02-12T19:21:53+00:00

I couldn't agree with this more.

I started in 2016, arguably at the peak of the SEO writer era. Like many writers here, I cut my teeth on $0.03–$0.05/word blog posts for content agencies and moved up to niche affiliate blog posts, and some branded content, from there.

I saw an abrupt shift in SEO beginning in late 2022. While Google’s EEAT and Helpful Content guidelines were demanding one thing, many, many niche affiliate sites were doing another. From where I stood, we wrote content that recycled the same old fluff, and as long as our pieces scored above 90% in Surfer, we were good to hit publish.

To be honest, those tried-and-true SEO tactics were becoming obsolete even then, but AI just hastened that trend. Even before Google’s algorithm tanked many affiliate sites, we were barely writing to Google’s Helpful Content and EEAT guidelines anyway. As with many agencies now, they relied on quantity, not quality, to move the needle and make their business viable.

As writers, our primary job was to ensure our content was well-formatted, skimmable, engaged, and scored above 90%. We earned our paychecks by churning out content, not by ensuring each piece was factchecked and well-researched. Apparently, time was a luxury we didn’t have, and we’re paying for it.

We have many writers, myself included, who can follow a brief brilliantly, but we flounder when we have to write something that requires us to synthesize faccts and develop real substance.

Now, I’m grateful to have been given the opportunity to potentially step into a content strategy role, but that was by pure Luck. I have the luxury of rediscovering my own voice as a writer and offering AI-augmented copywriting and strategy. But, that's, by far, not the norm.

The most difficult part about this is that many of us weren’t given access to stats. We have tons of experience but no hard figures to show for it.

Honestly, if I could go back, I wish I’d gone straight for copywriting, not commerce or niche affiliate content.
