Is this a tool deployed into an internal production environment? Or is it more of “dev” or “business user desktop” type app that isn’t deployed formally.

I’m working with a company now that thinks that AI is great until you need to deploy to Prod. Probably true in some cases, especially for tools built with Prod environments as targets.

But I’m using Claude Code for a tool that doesn’t absolutely require that sort of environment. It helps a company map data (insurance risk exposure data) to a predefined intermediate layout and column schema.

I know that I’ll run into resistance once I say “this could be deployed to Prod” but I think AI is a major win for Prod-like things.

My professional world largely lives in spreadsheets and relational databases. Neither going anywhere anytime soon. And spreadsheets are the currency of the business and industry in so many ways. They are very prod-like in my opinion.
