How Do You Use Claude AI?

Use chat for one-off tasks, projects when you work in the same business context again and again, and artifacts for outputs you want to share. Upload business documents for analysis, turn on web search or research for current information, and save repeated tasks as skills.

A Practical Example: From Business Task to Reusable Skill

Here is how the course takes one recurring task from first prompt to saved skill.

  1. Start with a SMART prompt. Give Claude your situation, goal, facts and a role, and ask for a few options.
  2. Refine the answer. Ask for changes, such as replacing two ideas or making it shorter, until it fits.
  3. Move it into a project. Save your business context and instructions once, so later prompts can be short.
  4. Create the output. Ask Claude to create it as an artifact, such as a content calendar, and download or share it.
  5. Save it as a skill. Write clear instructions with context, audience, tone, rules, output format and what to avoid, so you can trigger it any time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Claude AI?
Claude is an AI assistant from Anthropic. It is especially useful for long documents, summaries, writing and analysis, and it can also research, create outputs and work with other tools.
How do I use Claude AI?
Sign in on the web or in the app, then describe your situation, goal and the role you want it to play. Review the answer and ask for changes. Lessons 1 and 2 walk you through the screens and the prompt structure.
Is this Claude AI course for beginners?
Yes. It starts with an overview of Claude and builds step by step, using practical business examples. The AI tutor in the app can explain anything you get stuck on.

Are there usage limits, and do I need a paid plan?
Claude has usage limits that depend on your plan, the model, the effort setting and the length of the output. Plans, limits and features change, so check the current details. Lesson 1 explains how to plan around them.
