What early readers said about it. Zac Capper: "Honestly, I expected this to be another generic ebook, but it actually delivered. There were several points where I found myself thinking, 'I wish I'd known this earlier'..." Simon Hanassab: "Really useful! It's easy to follow, practical, and packed with useful information!" Ollie Cole: "Clear, actionable, and really easy to digest." From readers who got an early copy.Everything in the playbook: 12 short days, 40 prompts, which AI for which job with setup checklists, privacy and safety, and a 63-page PDF in your inbox as soon as you pay.Twelve days, one real job a day. Week 1: set up your AI, ask well, emails and replies, research and checking, plan your week, spreadsheets, home admin. Week 2: your own helper, your files and photos, deep research, build a small tool, let AI take actions.Same job, two prompts. A quick prompt gets a general email you rewrite. A better prompt with the facts, what you want and the length gets an email you could send as it is.You've tried AI. It didn't stick. The answers sound like a brochure: Day 1 and Day 2 fix that. You don't know what to use it for: each day gives you one real job and the prompt. You don't trust what it says: Day 4 shows you how to check. You're not sure what's safe to paste in: the privacy chapter covers it.More from early readers. Iris Samucha: "I started implementing some of the strategies almost immediately and was surprised by how much of a difference they made." Ted Nowell: "Well structured, concise, and genuinely informative." Jaimee Bayhack: "A lot of useful information with super practical help!" Yuval Schwartz: "Perfect for someone just getting started!" Zack Huberman: "Fantastic! Would recommend!"Questions

Do I need to pay for ChatGPT or another AI?
No. Everything works on the free plans. Where a feature needs a paid plan, the playbook says so and gives you a free way to do the same job.

Why pay when there are free videos on YouTube?
You can find most of this for free if you have the time. The playbook saves you the searching: twelve jobs in order, the prompt for each one, and what to check in the answer. Each day takes about 15 minutes.

Who is it for?
Anyone who uses a computer at work or at home and has tried AI a bit or not at all. If you already build agents or write code with AI every day, most of it will feel too basic.

Which AI does it use?
ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot. Each day works in any of them, and the setup checklists show where things are in each app.

How long does it take?
About 15 to 20 minutes a day for 12 days. Go faster or slower if you like. Each day stands on its own.

What exactly do I get?
A 63-page PDF, emailed to you straight after you pay. One payment, no subscription. Read it on your phone, your computer or on paper.

Is it up to date?
This is version 1, October 2026. The app menus and free-plan features in it were checked on 24 October 2026.
