Practical AI guides

Step-by-step guides for real work

Short, practical how-tos for the tasks you actually do. Each one gives you the method, the prompts to copy, and the checks that keep the output honest.

AI code review

A reviewer that comments on everything gets ignored. Start narrow and tune down.

Write an AI cold email

AI drafts fast, but generic AI email gets ignored. Here is the method that keeps the personalization.

Build an AI contract playbook

Write your positions down once, in a form a model can actually apply.

AI contract redlining

Give it your preferred and fallback language, and the first-pass markup takes minutes.

AI contract review

Let the model find the missing clauses and the outliers. Keep the judgment calls.

Write an AI contract summary

Turn forty pages of drafting into the dates, money, and obligations that matter.

AI discovery call prep

Walk in knowing the account, the person, and the questions worth asking.

AI for sales prospecting

Let AI do the account and contact research so you spend your time on the conversations.

AI keyword research

Models are good at finding angles you missed. They cannot tell you search volume.

Write AI landing page copy

Let the model draft the structure. Keep the proof and the voice in your hands.

AI legal research

The citations are the risk. Use grounded tools and verify every one against the reporter.

Prompting craft

Give AI a role

Naming who the AI should be is the cheapest upgrade in prompting, when the role fits the task.

Prompting craft

Tell AI what not to do

The fastest way to stop the habits you keep editing out of AI drafts by hand.

AI sales follow-up email

Paste the notes, get a follow-up that uses the buyer's own words and confirms next steps.

Practice objection handling

Rehearse the hard calls on a patient AI buyer before you spend a real one.

Prompting craft

Write a ChatGPT system prompt

Set the model's role, rules, and format once so you stop correcting the same things in every chat.

Analyze campaign results with AI

Export the numbers, ask what changed and why, then check the claim before you repeat it.

Build a content calendar with AI

Pick one goal, give it your themes, and let the model do the mapping.

Prompting craft

Make AI show its reasoning

Ask the model to work through it step by step, and you can catch where it goes wrong.

Prompting craft

Chat with a PDF

Upload the file, ask targeted questions, and check the answers against the page.

Prompting craft

ChatGPT data analysis

Upload the file, ask in plain English, and let it do the pivots and charts.

Prompting craft

Use ChatGPT Projects

Stop re-explaining yourself. Put the files, rules, and history for one job in a Project.

Prompting craft

Set a ChatGPT tone of voice

Show it your writing, let it name your style, then hold it to that on every draft.

Data & analytics

Clean data with AI

Cleaning rules applied blind to 50,000 rows create problems you will not notice for weeks.

Prompting craft

Compare two documents with AI

A step-by-step way to compare two documents with AI without missing edits or trusting a hallucination.

Prompting craft

Control ChatGPT response length

Say the size you want and the model gives it to you. Stop skimming walls of text.

Data & analytics

Data storytelling with AI

Executives do not want your methodology. They want the recommendation and the risk.

Debug code with AI

Paste the trace and say "fix this" and you get a plausible guess. Ask for a diagnosis first.

Data & analytics

Exploratory data analysis with AI

Before you answer anything, find out what is in the file and what you cannot trust.

Prompting craft

Fact-check AI content

AI writes confident sentences whether or not they are true. Here is how to catch the ones that aren't.

Prompting craft

Show AI what you want

Two or three examples teach tone and format faster than a paragraph of instructions.

Generate code documentation with AI

Docstrings and READMEs are mechanical. The business rules behind them are not.

Generate unit tests with AI

A model writes assertions matching what the code does. If the code is wrong, so is the test.

Prompting craft

How to write a good prompt

The five parts every strong prompt has, and what the AI guesses when you leave one out.

Prompting craft

Make ChatGPT ask questions

A one-line rule that turns vague requests into sharp answers.

Prompting craft

Build a personal prompt library

Stop rewriting the same prompt every week. Save the good ones and paste them.

Prompting craft

Prompt chaining

One giant prompt makes the AI juggle. A short chain makes it focus.

Prompting craft

Reduce AI hallucinations

Most fabrications come from asking the model to answer with nothing to go on. Give it something.

Refactor code with AI

The risk is not the refactor. It is doing it without the tests that prove nothing changed.

Repurpose a webinar with AI

The transcript is the asset. Mine it once and you get a month of content.

Prompting craft

Structured output prompting

Show the model the exact shape you want, and it fills in the data.

Prompting craft

Summarize a long PDF

Break it into sections, summarize each, then combine. The whole-document dump loses the details.

Prompting craft

Train ChatGPT on brand voice

Turn your style guide and best content into a spec the model actually follows.

Data & analytics

Write SQL with AI

The query that runs clean and returns the wrong number is the expensive one.
