AI for Everyday Automation

7 AI Workflows to Save Hours at Work Every Week

Most professionals spend their days juggling a constant flow of information, communication, and coordination. Individually, these tasks seem small. Together, they consume hours every week. This book shows you how to use AI to turn these recurring responsibilities into practical, repeatable workflows.

Using ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity, this book walks you through seven practical workflows for automating emails, meetings, research, reports, task tracking, spreadsheets, content creation, and professional communication. Each workflow includes prompts, templates, and step-by-step guidance.
