Run a simple work playbook with AI.

Playground

Work helper

Run a playbook: summarize, reply, or tidy meeting notes.

Recap

What you just did

WorkPlaybooks had you pick a work pattern (summarize, draft, clarify, plan) and stick to its steps. That’s the upgrade from random chat: a repeatable recipe for notes → actions, or draft → cleaner send. You’re training yourself to prompt the same way under pressure.

How it works

Three playbooks that cover a lot of desks:

1) Meeting notes → clarity

Turn these rough notes into:
- Decisions (bullets)
- Action items (owner + deadline if mentioned; else "owner TBD")
- Open questions
Keep names as-is. No fluff. Flag anything that sounds unresolved.

Notes:
[paste]

2) Draft email / Slack

Role: concise workplace writer.
Audience: [teammate / client / manager].
Goal: [one sentence].
Tone: professional, human, no corporate sludge.
Format: subject (if email) + body under 120 words + one clear ask.
Draft or bullets:
[paste]

3) Prep for a tough talk

I need to ask for [X] in a 15-minute chat.
Facts I can stand on: [bullets]
Concerns they’ll raise: [bullets]
Give: opening line, 3 talking points, 2 calm responses to pushback, and a closing ask.

Strip secrets before you paste: customer PII, passwords, unreleased strategy. Playbook first, paste second, edit third — you still hit send.

Use it

When you'd use this

  • Turning scribbles into a shareable summary
  • Softening a blunt draft without losing the point
  • Preparing asks (deadlines, scope, feedback)

Watch out

Watch out

Don’t paste confidential deal terms into consumer chat tools your company hasn’t approved. And don’t let AI invent owners or deadlines that weren’t said — use “TBD” when the notes are silent.

Run playbook 1 on yesterday’s notes (or a fake meeting if you’re between jobs). Send yourself the cleaned version and check owners.
