A few days ago I asked if anyone wanted to see the guide I put together on the five AI tools I keep coming back to. The response was clear. So here it is. It’s a short, practical guide — 32 pages, no fluff. You can read it in about 20 minutes. It covers: • The five tools that actually make a difference in an accounting firm • Where most accountants waste time with AI (and how to avoid it) • What to focus on first so you get quick wins without overwhelm • A bonus tool almost nobody talks about I wrote it because there’s so much noise around AI right now. Every week there’s a new tool, a new feature, another person telling you what you should be using. This guide cuts through that.

Most people sign up for Claude, open the chat, ask a few questions ... and never touch the other 90% of what they're paying for. Sound familiar? I've just released a full walkthrough video that takes you through every Claude feature you need to know ... in the exact order you should learn them. This is actually part of a course inside the AI Academy ... but I wanted to give you a taster of what we do in there. So here it is. We don't just jump into the features. We start with the settings that most people skip ... and they're the ones that make the biggest difference. In the video I walk you through: • The 5 chat settings you should configure before doing anything else (and why custom instructions is the single highest-impact one) • Why the privacy toggle matters when you're handling client data • How to choose between Sonnet, Opus, and Haiku without burning through your usage • All 13 Claude features explained step by step ... from basic chat to Connectors, Projects, Cowork, Skills, Design, and beyond • The additional settings you need when you move to Cowork (folders, permissions, CLAUDE.md, and more) • What makes Live Artifacts, Claude in Chrome, and Claude in Office different from normal chat This is the video I wish I'd had when I first started with Claude. It's 48 minutes, but think of it as your roadmap. You don't need to learn everything at once. Start with the settings, then work through the features one at a time. You'll see the video below 👇 Your Homework I've given you a lot in this video. Now it's your turn. Drop a comment below and tell me three things 👇 Which feature surprised you the most? Which one made you think "I didn't know Claude could do that"? Which feature are you going to try first this week? Not someday. This week. Pick one and commit to it. What questions have you got? If you want to go deeper on any of these features, let me know. I create training on exactly the topics you ask for. Don't just watch and move on. The people who get value from this community are the ones who take action.

Don't miss the LIVE event - claim your place (https://bit.ly/4cMX7hw). Most accountants don’t struggle with AI because they’re bad at it. They struggle because they’re using it in the wrong places. They open ChatGPT.They try a few prompts.They get mixed results. And quietly think: “Is this really worth the effort?” The issue isn’t AI. It’s the lack of structure. In the live session next week, I’m going to show you: - How to use structured prompts to get consistent, high-quality results - How to analyse financial data and generate real advisory insights - How AI fits across your firm… not just in isolated tasks And towards the end, I’ll show you something most accountants haven’t even considered yet… 👉 How to build a simple app that will seriously impress clients and improve your conversations with them This is not a theory session. It’s a practical working session. If you’ve been meaning to move beyond dabbling with AI, this is where it starts. 👉 Save your seat here

Most people will scroll past this. That’s a mistake. Because the latest updates aren’t just “a bit better”… They fundamentally change what you can actually do with AI in your firm. 👇 Find out more during Wednesday's live session. Here’s why this matters In the latest release, we’re seeing some serious shifts: 1. AI that can actually do the work, not just answer questions We’re moving beyond prompts and replies… These new models can: - Build tools and dashboards from messy data - Fix problems without constant hand-holding - Work across multiple steps to complete a task This is getting very close to real “assistant” behaviour. 2. Much stronger reasoning and accuracy You’ll notice this immediately. It’s better at: - Analysing unstructured information - Turning data into something usable - Producing outputs you can actually rely on That’s critical if you’re using AI in client work. 3. A big leap in visual and content creation This is the part most people will underestimate. The new capabilities mean you can now: - Create highly detailed visuals with accurate text - Generate reports, dashboards, and client-ready outputs - Combine research, reasoning, and presentation in one go It’s no longer just “nice images”… it’s practical output. 4. More autonomy… less prompting You don’t need to babysit it as much. It can: - Plan - execute - iterate …all from a single instruction. That changes how you use AI day-to-day. What this means for you If you’re an accountant or bookkeeper… This is not about “playing with AI tools”. This is about: - Faster analysis - Better client insights - New advisory opportunities - Less manual work Want to see how to actually use this? 👉 Join me live on Wednesday I’ll walk you through: - What these updates really mean in practice - How to use them inside your firm - Real use cases you can implement immediately Quick question 👇 What’s the one thing you’d most like AI to do for you right now?
