A Social Club's Paperwork: Three Days Down to Two Hours

OpenAI's own write-up of The Den, a social club opening a new location, reports that grant applications now take two hours instead of three days and liquor-license materials three hours instead of four, freeing 10 to 15 hours a week. It is a vendor's account of a customer, with the numbers coming from the company rather than an outside evaluation — useful as a snapshot of the kind of clerical work AI vendors are selling, and worth reading as a claim rather than a measurement.

Take

Hours saved is an input measure. The write-up tells you the paperwork got faster; it doesn't say what the club did with the recovered week.

Pushback

At least the task is named and the before-and-after is specific. Most vendor numbers are vaguer than 'two hours instead of three days.'
