Stefko Dover, a legal director at Ford, created the assistant using Anthropic’s Claude tools without any formal background in coding. By utilizing a process known as 'vibe coding,' she described her family’s logistical needs in plain English rather than writing complex scripts. The system, which she affectionately calls Claudette, now serves as the household’s central nervous system, drafting texts for her husband and their au pair while even offering personalized affirmations.
What began as a necessity during a trip to Scottsdale, Arizona, has evolved into a sophisticated management tool. Initial versions were overly aggressive with scheduling, but Stefko Dover refined the prompts to filter for only essential information. The AI now tracks birthday parties, monitors school emails, and manages household chores, even providing unsolicited commentary on her shopping habits. The arrangement has reduced domestic friction, allowing the family to delegate the heavy lifting of coordination to their digital chief of staff.
