The Daily AI Operating System Sprint, from Castro Klein

This isn't an AI course.
It's two sessions of putting it to work.

The Daily AI Operating System Sprint. Two live Tuesdays in Claude, two hours each, with Denise on screen. You leave with it running, not with notes.

Two Tuesdays. September 8 and 15, or 22 and 29 1:00 PM Eastern, 11:00 Mountain Two hours, live with Denise Ten seats
Your morning briefing Tuesday, September 8

Three things need you today.

9:00 AM
Discovery call with Marta Reyes, Reyes Bookkeeping.
You met her at the August mixer. She asked for pricing on the 29th and you haven't sent it.
2:00 PM
The Whitfield proposal is due today.
Your draft is in the vault. The scope section is still empty.
Overdue, 6 days
You owe Dana Whitfield the onboarding doc.
Your words: "I'll get that over to you tonight."
Nothing else today needs you.

Example briefing. The names are made up; the format is the real thing you build in session one.

You've probably lived at least one of these

You had three good conversations this week and can't remember what you promised in any of them.

You've opened ChatGPT, asked it something useful, and never gone back.

Your follow-up system is your memory, your inbox, and a notes app you stopped trusting.

You keep hearing you should be using AI, and nobody has told you what for.

You rewrite the same client email every week from scratch.

Every good idea you have gets typed into your phone and never seen again.

None of that is a discipline problem. You're running a real business on tools that were never connected in a real system.

Claude

Why we're building in Claude

Not a tour of twenty AI tools. One place to start, so you're not choosing between things you've never used.

Claude Cowork

The part most people have never seen. It does work that has steps, instead of just answering you.

Your work stays yours

You'll learn to keep your own information in your own hands, not locked inside someone else's app.

It moves with you

Claude is how we teach it. What you learn works with whatever AI you use next.

This is what you get

Seven things running in your business, not seven things to read about. Most are waiting for you on day one.

Morning briefing

Your day, before you open your inbox

Ask what needs you today. It reads your calendar, email and tasks, and hands you a short plan.

This morning 7:04 AM

Two things, then you're clear.

Marta's pricing is 8 days late. She's asked twice.
11:00 with the Whitfield team. Prep is ready below.
Meeting prep

It reads the room before you walk in

Who they are, where you met, and what's still open. No scrolling through six months of email at 8:58.

Before your call 9:00 AM, Marta Reyes
Who she is
Bookkeeper, eleven years, moving into fractional CFO work.
Where you met
The SHE Leads mixer, August 14. She sat at your table.
Still open
She has asked what a full build costs. Twice.
After the call

The follow-up is written before lunch

Your notes are filed and the follow-up is already drafted. Read it, change what you want, send it.

Ready for you 9:52 AM
ToMarta Reyes
SubjectThe pricing you asked about

Marta, good to talk this morning. Here's the pricing I promised, plus the one-page version you can sit with.

Send it Change something first
Filed under Marta Reyes. Check-in set for September 15.
Brain dump

Say it once and stop carrying it

Talk for two minutes. It files what you said where Thursday's you will find it.

You talked for 2 minutes Here's where it went
  • "a workshop just for bookkeepers, maybe January" Marketing ideas
  • "Marta needs that pricing by Friday" Tasks, due Sept 12
  • "honestly I'm tired and behind on the newsletter" Private journal

The private things stay private. You decide what it's allowed to touch.

Content

It writes from your own work, so it sounds like you

It writes from things you've already published, so the draft sounds like you.

Draft post From your own notes

A client asked me last week why her follow-up keeps slipping. It isn't discipline. She's holding six months of conversations in her head and hoping the important one surfaces at the right moment.

Use this Make it shorter
Built from three of your past posts and yesterday's call notes.
Revenue routine

The follow-ups that make you money, on a schedule

It tells you who to reach out to this week, and what you last promised them.

Revenue routine Monday, 8:00 AM

Three people to reach out to this week.

Marta Reyes. Proposal sent 9 days ago, no reply.
Dana Whitfield. She said circle back in September, and it is September.
Karen Dredske. You met in August and never followed up.
The same three questions every Monday, whether you remember or not.
Inbox

It tells you which six actually need you

It flags what matters and drafts the replies that don't need your judgement.

Overnight 31 new

Six need you. The rest are handled.

Dana is asking about the contract again. Third time.
Four scheduling replies drafted and waiting for your yes.

Beyond the sprint

Once you understand how the pieces connect, you keep going without us. None of this was on the curriculum.

"I found several new things I could automate, freeing up time to focus on other areas." Lori OsborneBizbolster
"I love that I can use it to create artifacts, dashboards for anything I want to measure." Mary GaulSuccess Magnified
"I'm now building similar workflows myself, things I set up instead of just following along. I'm even applying it for a client." Mary WuestSynced Strategies

Since finishing, people have moved data between systems that never talked to each other, cancelled software they stopped needing, and freed up five hours a week or more.

By the end you're not waiting to be told what AI could do in your business. You can see it, and build it.

"The follow-up system has already paid off with a new client that I had forgotten to add to my CRM, and the morning briefing found it in my email."

Mary Gaul, Success Magnified

Connect to the tools you use

Your CRM stays where it is. Your calendar, email and tasks feed in.

Google Calendar Gmail Google Drive Zoho HighLevel HubSpot Asana Notion Slack QuickBooks Dropbox

You leave every session with something running

Two hours, live, with Denise on screen building alongside you. Same four topics as always, in half the sittings. You finish each session with the thing working, not with homework.

Session one, Tuesday September 8System setup and meetings

Connect your calendar and your email, and meet the vault that's already built for you. Then prep before a call and follow-up after it, so nothing said out loud gets lost.

Running by the endYour morning briefing, and meeting prep and follow-up

Session two, Tuesday September 15Ideas, revenue and inbox

Get what's in your head out of it and turn it into content that sounds like you wrote it. Then the routines that keep revenue moving, an inbox that sorts itself, and how to keep building on your own.

Words from our clients

"You can take another AI class, but you'll never get another teacher as patient as Denise, who can hop on your screen and walk you through it."

Mary GaulSuccess Magnified

"Time. My days are packed and I was worried the time invested might not pay off. And I was very wrong. My financial tracker now takes less than half the effort it did before."

Lori Osborne Lori OsborneBizbolster

"Doing it alone, or through self-paced coursework, is still just you on your own. What the sprint gave me was momentum: the structure to actually build the thing instead of just knowing it was possible."

Denise Klein

Who you'll be building with

Denise Klein has spent more than twenty years building sales and marketing systems for real businesses, and the last few putting AI to work inside them. She teaches every session herself.

Castro Klein is her joint venture with Hilary Castro. About forty years of running businesses between them, with AI as the newest tool in the kit rather than the whole pitch.

More about Castro Klein

You run the business, and you're carrying most of it in your head

This is you if

  • Every lead you have depends on you remembering to follow up.
  • You finish client work at six and start on admin at seven.
  • Growth adds to your plate instead of taking something off.

Not for you if

  • You want it built for you with no involvement.
  • You want a recorded course to watch someday.
  • You want AI running your business instead of you.

Everything that comes with it

Nothing here is coming later. You get all of it on day one.

A vault that's already built

Folders, templates, and the file that teaches it about your business. You never start from a blank screen.

Two live sessions with Denise on your screen

Two hours each. Not a recording. You build, she helps, in the room.

Short lessons before we start

Prompting basics and moving from ChatGPT to Claude, so session one isn't spent catching up.

A community to ask in

Bring your real business to it. Ask anything, from the day you join through 30 days after your second session.

A live support hour every Wednesday

10:00 AM Eastern, one hour, first come first served. Bring whatever you're stuck on, every week for 30 days after your second session.

Both sessions recorded

If you have to miss one, you can catch up before the next.

All of it, for $797.

The Daily AI Operating System Sprint

$797

Two September cohorts. Two Tuesdays each, two hours a session. Pick the pair that fits your calendar.

Ten seats a cohort. We keep it that small so everyone gets screen time in the session they're stuck. Each one starts on its date whether the room fills or not. No countdown timer.

You'll finish session one with it working

The fear we hear most is that you'll pay for another AI thing and it will sit there like the last one. So this isn't a promise about your satisfaction.

You'll finish session one with a working system pulling from your own calendar and email. If you don't, Denise sits with you one on one until you do.

The questions everyone asks

Do I need to be technical?

No. If you can follow a screen share, you're set. You don't need to have built anything like this before, because never having done it is the starting point both sessions are designed around.

What if I fall behind?

You won't get left behind, because getting stuck out loud is how the sessions work. Both sessions are recorded, you can ask in the community any time, and there's a live support hour every Wednesday for 30 days after you finish.

Is my data safe?

Your vault is plain files in your own cloud account, not locked inside somebody's app. We'll walk you through where the privacy and training settings live so you can check them yourself and set them the way you want. Anything sensitive can stay off the cloud completely.

What about my clients' confidential information?

If you hold client books, files, or anything covered by an agreement, we'll cover what to keep out of it and how to set it up so client data stays where it belongs.

What do I need to buy?

A paid Claude Pro plan, and Obsidian, which is free. We walk you through both in session one.

What if I stop using it?

You keep it, because it's plain files sitting in your own account. Nothing of yours is held hostage if you walk away.

You don't have to figure out where to start. That's what the two sessions are for.

Two Tuesdays, two hours each. You finish with a system that runs your day, not one more tool you feel guilty about.

September 8 and 15, or September 22 and 29. Ten seats a cohort.
