The AI Power-User Playbook (ChatGPT + Claude)
Stop getting mediocre answers. Start running AI like a pro.
By the end you will be able to write a prompt that gets the right answer on the first or second try, build a reusable Custom GPT or Claude Project for any recurring task, automate the boring parts with Zapier or Sheets, and diagnose a bad output instead of giving up on it.
How to actually drive both tools. The techniques, settings and prompt patterns that separate a power user from someone typing one-line questions.
What's inside

20 high-value workflows across research, writing, analysis, planning, learning, coding-lite and email, written as ready-to-run prompts
Step-by-step setup for Custom GPTs and Claude Projects, with full example instruction blocks you can paste in
Automation recipes wiring AI into Zapier, Make and Google Sheets, including a working Apps Script function
A 2026 model-selection guide: which model for which job, with rough cost and speed trade-offs
A troubleshooting section for hallucination, refusals, vague output and context limits, with the exact fix for each
A printable one-page prompt checklist, a 30-day skill-building calendar (CSV) and a swipe file of 40 ready prompts (separate files)
