What you get

AI Start: the entry that works

Set up on your device

We set up ChatGPT, Claude or other tools directly on your phone and laptop. With your account, your settings. You go home with working tools.

One real task automated

Not a gimmick, but a real task from your day: email drafts, quotes, summaries, research. By the end of the workshop it is automated.

Without fear of the tech

We explain everything so you understand it – and can carry on yourself. No IT background needed. If you can use WhatsApp, you can use AI.

Compact: one afternoon

Four hours well spent. No weeks-long courses, no homework. You invest one afternoon and have working tools afterwards.

A fixed price with no surprises

A transparent fixed price for individuals and for small teams. All inclusive. No hidden costs, no follow-on sales, no subscription traps.

Personal, not mass-produced

A maximum of 3 participants per workshop. We respond to your situation, answer your questions and solve your specific problems.

The problem

Why most people fail at getting started with AI

The overwhelm: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Midjourney, Perplexity... a new tool every day, new headlines every day. "AI will change everything!" But where to start? What do I really need? And how does it even work?

The typical hurdles:

  • Overwhelm: too many tools, too many options, too little time to try things out.
  • Fear of costs: "do I need expensive software? An IT consultant? New hardware?"
  • Scepticism: "does this really work? Or is it just hype?"
  • No time: "I really should get into this..." – but when?

The solution: a compact workshop that clears all the hurdles at once. We show you the tools that are relevant for you. We set them up together. And we automate a real task – so you see the value immediately.

Workshop content

What we achieve in 4 hours

A structured afternoon with concrete results.

Set up ChatGPT & Claude

Create an account, install the app, optimise the settings. On your phone and laptop. With tips for data protection and secure use.

Working AI tools on your devices

The right settings

Which subscription do you really need? Which settings make sense? How do you protect your data? We clarify every question.

Optimal configuration without wasting money

Prompts that work

The quality of the answers depends on the question. We show you prompt techniques that deliver better results straight away.

Better answers through better questions

Write emails faster

Replies to customer enquiries, quote emails, follow-ups – we practise with real examples from your day.

Noticeably less time on email

Create & improve copy

Blog posts, social media, quotes, presentations – use AI as a writing assistant without losing your own style.

Write faster, phrase better

Research & summarise

Summarise long documents, research topics, structure information – in minutes instead of hours.

Informed faster, better prepared

Automate a real task

Together we choose a recurring task from your day and automate it. Not as a demo, but for real – you use the result from tomorrow.

Immediate, measurable value

Make it repeatable

We document what we did. You can adjust the automation yourself and transfer it to similar tasks.

Able to carry on independently

Your personal AI roadmap

Which other tasks could you automate? Which tools are relevant for your situation? We sketch the next sensible steps.

Clarity on the way forward

Resources to carry on

Recommendations for tutorials, books, communities. So you can carry on independently – without expensive follow-up courses.

What you might think – and why it is not true

"I'm not tech-savvy"

If you can use WhatsApp, you can use ChatGPT. We explain everything so you understand it – without jargon.

No IT skills needed
"This is bound to be expensive"

The workshop has a transparent fixed price (individual or small team). The tools we set up are mostly free or inexpensive.

Transparent costs, no subscription pressure
"I have no time for long courses"

One afternoon. Four hours. Afterwards you have working tools and an automated task. No homework, no follow-up appointments.

Compact and efficient
"Isn't this just hype?"

That is why we automate a real task from your day. You see immediately whether and how much time you save. No hype, but measurable value.

Practice instead of theory

FAQ

Common questions about the AI Start Workshop

Do I need prior knowledge?

No. The workshop is designed for absolute beginners. If you can use a smartphone and write emails, that is enough. We explain everything from the ground up – without jargon.

What do I need to bring?

Your smartphone and your laptop. Ideally also a few examples of tasks you would like to automate (e.g. typical emails, quote text, research topics). But don't worry – we find suitable tasks together.

Where does the workshop take place?

Flexibly: at your office, at our premises, or remotely by video. Remote works just as well – we share screens and work together on your devices.

Can I also do the workshop with my team?

Yes! Team workshops are particularly effective because you can carry on together afterwards. We adapt the scope to your team size — we clarify the details in the initial consultation.

Which tools do we set up?

That depends on your situation. Typically: ChatGPT (free or Plus version), Claude, possibly Perplexity for research. We only recommend tools you really need – not a collection you never use.

Do I have to take out expensive subscriptions afterwards?

No. The free versions of ChatGPT and Claude are enough for many uses. If an upgrade makes sense, we explain in the workshop when and why. But there is no obligation.

What if I have questions after the workshop?

You get a resource pack with guides, prompt templates and recommendations to carry on. For questions in the first two weeks after the workshop we are available by email – free of charge.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

If after the workshop you feel you have learned nothing, we will talk about it. We focus on delivering real results, not just theory.
