Your notes are scattered. Your AI context keeps dying.

You jump between ChatGPT, Claude, and a local model — and every time you switch, you lose the thread. Projects stall. Decisions get re-made. Context evaporates.

❌ WITHOUT A SYSTEM
  • • Chats lost to scroll-hell
  • • Same prompt rewritten 5 times
  • • "Wait, which AI was I using for this?"
  • • Notes in 4 apps, none of them connected
  • • No handoff doc when you switch models
✅ WITH THE STARTER KIT
  • • Every project has a home in the vault
  • • Templates load the right context instantly
  • • AI Handoff doc captures state on switch
  • • Workflows move work forward automatically
  • • One source of truth across all your AIs

What's inside the kit

Three pillars. One vault. Everything you need to run multi-AI projects without losing your mind.

📝
19 Templates
Project briefs, AI handoffs, decision logs, daily reviews, research notes. Drop-in Markdown templates that structure your thinking the moment you create a note.
🔁
5 Workflows
Step-by-step flows for the 5 things you actually do: start a project, hand off to AI, capture output, review progress, and ship. Each one documented and repeatable.
🤖
AI Handoff System
The crown jewel. A structured handoff template that captures project state, decisions, and next steps — so you can move from ChatGPT to Claude to local AI without losing context.

FAQ

Do I need to already use Obsidian? +

No. Obsidian is free to download and the kit includes a START_HERE guide that walks you through installing the vault. If you can unzip a file and open a folder, you can run this kit.

Will this work if I only use one AI (just ChatGPT, or just Claude)? +

Yes. The AI Handoff system shines when you're switching models, but the vault structure, templates, and workflows are valuable even if you only use one AI. Most buyers start single-AI and expand later — the kit scales with you.

What if my projects are totally different from yours? +

The templates use placeholders and frontmatter you can adapt to any domain — coding, writing, research, business. The structure is opinionated but flexible: rename folders, swap template fields, make it yours.

What if it doesn't click for me? +

7-day refund, no questions. If you set up the vault, try 3 templates, and don't feel more organized — your money back.

Stop losing context. Start shipping.
