Key takeaways

- The helpers: Granola captures meetings, Wispr Flow turns talking into typing, ChatGPT makes images, Notion keeps your work.
- Every road leads back to Claude. The helpers just make it faster.
Reminder: We use Claude in class. You can use whichever tool works best for you, and make the adjustments on your own.
Do this now: Write down three tasks from your week, and next to each one, the tool you'd open first.
Class Notes
🤔 Why a small toolbox
New AI tools launch every week. You don't need them. In A2A, you need one paid tool: Claude.
The rule: When in doubt, open Claude.
🧰 Which tool do I open?
🔁 How they work together
Here's one client call, start to finish.
- Granola takes notes during the call.
- You paste the notes into Claude and ask for a follow-up email.
- You use Wispr Flow to talk through your edits instead of typing them.
- Want a simple graphic to go with it? ChatGPT makes one.
- You save the final email and notes in Notion so you can find them later.
Every road leads back to Claude. The helpers just make it faster.
🎯 Your turn
Sort three real tasks from your week.
- Write down three tasks on your plate this week.
- Next to each one, write the tool you'd open first.
- Add one sentence on why.
- Check your picks against the graphic. Not sure? Pick Claude.
Example: "Follow-up email after Tuesday's client call → Granola, then Claude. Granola has the notes, and Claude writes the email."
✅ Before you close this
🛠️ Next: set up each tool
Each tool has its own short Week 0 video and setup steps:
🌱 New to this?
Start small. You only need Claude today. Open it and type: "I'm new to AI. Here are three things on my plate this week: [...]. Which ones could you help with?"
Stuck? Copy this page into Claude and say: "I'm new to this. Walk me through it one step at a time."
