Why You Should Almost Never Ask Cowork a Single-Search Question

You ask Cowork, "What's the best CRM for a small services business?"

Back comes a tidy answer: three named tools, a sentence each, a recommendation at the bottom. It looks authoritative. You skim it, pick the one it favored, and move on.

A week later someone asks why you didn't weigh migration cost, or pricing past ten seats, or whether it integrates with the invoicing tool you already pay for. You don't have answers, because you never asked. Cowork answered the question you typed, not the decision you were making.

The search wasn't wrong. The question was too small to hold the decision.
