The Den Saves 10-15 Hours Weekly Using ChatGPT Work for Administrative Tasks

The Den Family Social Club, based in Denver, has saved 10-15 hours per week by implementing ChatGPT Work for administrative tasks. Chandler Lipe, the Founder and CEO, reported that the tool has reduced the time for grant applications by 92%, cutting preparation from three days to just two hours. Similarly, liquor license applications, which originally took four days, now require only three hours, marking a 91% reduction in time spent. The Den's leadership team also saves seven hours weekly in exploratory conversations, allowing them to focus on growth initiatives.

Brooke, Head of Programming and Partnerships, and Maia, General Manager, have also noted the efficiency gains, with Lipe stating, "ChatGPT Work allows us to build the company we need before we have the size or resources of that company." This operational shift follows The Den's recent expansion with a new location opened on October 1, 2026, highlighting the club's commitment to leveraging AI tools for enhanced productivity.
