I always considered myself an AI skeptic. However, the last three weeks since discovering Isaac (Databricks’ internal command line AI Agent built on top of Claude), I’m a convert.

From the top of my head, I can name several items where the agent successfully helped me out:

  • Performing a thorough analysis of Databricks’ partners working for a given account and compiling the results in a spreadsheet. Genuinely deep research.
  • Automated the process of creating call lists by calling the tools I use for scraping and loading the contacts into Salesforce.
  • Reading my hand written notes from PDF using OCR and adding them to the correct sections in Logseq.
  • Looking through my task lists and Slack to figure out next actions for todo’s for which I have forgotten the context.

It made my job as a BDR genuinely more bearable, liberating time for the activities I like enjoy - like talking to prospects.
