Cowork, now built into the Claude app, lets Claude take on tasks for you, on Claude models. Rerun runs a team of agents on an always-on machine, on any model, including the Claude plan you already pay for.
Last reviewed , against each product’s public pricing and docs.
Pick Claude if you want Claude to take on tasks from the app you already chat in, with its connectors, skills and cloud schedules. Pick Rerun if you want several agents with their own jobs, working for the whole team from an always-on machine, on the model of your choice. The two fit together: sign an agent into your Claude plan and Rerun runs it on Claude.
Claude takes on the tasks you hand it. Rerun runs your recurring work with a team of agents, on any model, your Claude plan included.
Four differences that change your day to day, shown on the real product.
Claude runs on Claude models. Each Rerun agent can sign in with your Claude plan, or run on GPT, Gemini or another model with your key, and you can switch per agent or per scheduled task.
Claude’s scheduled tasks run in the cloud but can’t reach folders on your computer, and tasks that need them wait for it to be on. Rerun agents run on your workspace’s private machine, where their files and databases live, day and night.
Tell the Foreman, the assistant that runs your agents, what you have in mind: it hands each task to the agent that owns the job, or proposes a new one. Agents share one database and folder, so the inbox agent can hand a new lead to the sales agent.
## Procedure
1. Pull unpaid invoices from Stripe daily
2. Send a first reminder on day 7 past due
3. Escalate to the account owner after 2 tries
4. Log every touch in the CRM thread
## Exceptions
- Never chase an invoice under $50
- Read references/tone.md before escalating
## Billing
- Pays around day 30, sometimes later
- A PO number is required on every invoice
- Invoices go to ap@acme.co, not to Dana
## People
- Dana Reyes runs ops, answers within a day
- Escalations go through their COO
## Voice
- English, formal, no emoji
- Sign off as the founder, not an assistant
- Keep it under 120 words
## Timing
- Follow up twice, then stop
- Send whenever the draft is ready
Every agent belongs to the workspace: teammates see what it did, and any of them can answer when it stops to ask before something risky. With Autopilot on, the Foreman answers within your rules while everyone is away.
No migration project. Start with the one task that costs you the most, and let it prove itself.
Sign an agent into your Claude account, so the work runs on the subscription you already pay for.
Give each recurring task to its own agent, or install a ready-made one from the library.
Agents run on their machine on a schedule or a webhook, and ask the team when they need a decision.
Cowork is part of Claude’s paid plans: Pro is $20 a month ($17 billed yearly), Max from $100, and Team $25 a seat ($20 billed yearly), each with usage limits. Rerun is one plan from $49 a month for 5 agents your team shares, and its agents can run on a Claude plan you already have.
