About 20–30 minutes to work through.
Leave with one focused launch task.
Before you start
List the tools and projects currently competing for your attention. Choose an upcoming launch or repeated task to focus on; you do not need another subscription for this exercise.
Use this guide as a practice companion. The recording captures the app and conversation as they were on June 24, 2026; historical announcements and screens may differ today.
Make one useful thing.
Choose a working home
Pick one place to keep the goal, audience, source material and current draft. Write down where each tool is needed and remove unnecessary handoffs from this first trial.
Define a visible milestone
Choose one result, such as a tested waitlist page or a reviewed launch post. State what it must contain and what counts as finished.
Complete one focused block
Work on that result with your chosen assistant. Check the output against the brief and record what remains before switching tools or starting another project.
Give it your context.
These practice prompts adapt the session’s ideas. Replace the bracketed text, review the response and make one specific revision.
Simplify this workflow
Here are my tools [tools], project [project] and current process [process]. Identify unnecessary handoffs and propose a simpler trial using what I already have. Explain where human review is needed.
Define the next milestone
For this launch [launch], help me choose one useful deliverable I can finish in [time]. Give it clear acceptance criteria and a short review checklist. Do not add extra projects.
Finish with a next step.

Ideas to listen for
Fewer handoffs, clearer context. The group discusses the friction of spreading one project across multiple AI tools.
Launch with something concrete. Waitlists, brand references and a useful content plan become practical milestones instead of more open-ended planning.
Get unstuck.
Must I use the tool the group chose?
No. The useful principle is to keep your work and context coherent. Use a tool you can access and review.
What if the first automation fails?
Record the exact step and expected result. Try a small manual example before adding more automation or changing the whole setup.
