The Quiet AI Power Play

You’re not “using AI.” You’re finishing smarter, faster, and way ahead. This week’s moves? Cleaner inboxes, client-ready calculators, and web flexes that hit hard — all in minutes. This isn’t about learning tools. It’s about looking like a wizard (without working like one).

The real AI flex?

It’s not building a chatbot. It’s not mastering 50 tools. It’s quietly using AI to write sharper emails, prep smarter pitches, and crank out better work in half the time — while everyone else is still “experimenting.” Real power is subtle. And honestly? That’s what makes it fun.

What’s Inside This Week?

Steal these AI shortcuts (and one ridiculous LinkedIn challenge) for your business.

  • A 3-bullet inbox power move

  • Canva AI Code builds you a live pricing calculator

  • A hypothetical (but genius) photography upgrade

  • Poetic websites and secret flexes

  • AI news that actually matters

  • And a spicy poll about whether you give AI credit

Quick Win: The 3-Bullet Power Move

Buried in a 12-message email thread? This prompt turns inbox spaghetti into clean, clear action steps.

Prompt:

 “Summarize this long email thread into 3 bullet points. Highlight the decision that was made, who’s responsible, and what the next step is.”

Try it: Chatgpt, Claude

Drop this into ChatGPT (or Claude, if you’re feeling fancy), paste in the thread, and boom — you’ve got the TL;DR everyone wishes they had. Use it before replying, forwarding, or pretending you read the whole thing.

This is how inbox pros operate.

Tool of the Week: Canva AI Code

What if you could build a custom pricing calculator — without code, without stress, and without paying a developer?

That’s exactly what Canva AI Code lets you do. You describe the website you want in plain English — and Canva builds it, live, in minutes. Think of it like AI-meets-drag-and-drop web design.

Need a clean way for clients to select services, see live pricing, and book faster? Describe it once. Canva turns it into a mobile-friendly, working website.

It’s not a mockup. It’s the real thing.

Use Case: The Photographer Who Ditched the PDF

Clarity Studio used to send clients a clunky PDF with session rates, editing fees, and album options. It looked... fine. But people still asked, “How much would it be if I only want 10 photos and the hardcover album?”

Now? They’ve got a sleek pricing calculator built with Canva’s AI Website Builder.

Clients tap a few options — session length, number of images to edit, and album style — and the total updates automatically. Fewer questions. Faster bookings. And it looks like they hired a designer (spoiler: they didn’t).

This kind of simple, smart upgrade doesn’t just save time — it quietly makes your business look more professional and polished.

Try this Just For Fun: Turn Your Website Into a Poem

 This one’s completely unnecessary… and also kind of magical.

Prompt:

 “Rewrite the copy from my website as a short, clever poem — 4 lines max. Keep the tone friendly and aligned with my brand voice.”

Try it in: Chatgpt, Claude

Perfect for an Easter egg on your site, your email signature, or that weird footer no one knows what to do with.

Your About page just got bars.

Ai in The News: What Just Got Easier

Google just dropped a new AI called AlphaEvolve. The name sounds like a Marvel villain, but the point is simple: it writes better code than most humans.

Why should you care?

Because tools like this will quietly start powering the apps you already use — email, design, calendars, websites — making everything faster without you needing to touch a line of code.

In short: AI’s not just getting smarter. It’s getting baked into the stuff you already use, whether you notice or not.

So if you're using Canva, Notion, or Gmail… you're probably already using AI. You're just not calling it that.

No prompt engineering required.

Question of the Day (Poll)

Be honest: Do you tell people you used AI… or just take the credit?

Before You Go!

 If someone asks how you pulled that off so fast, you can tell them it was AI… or just smile and say, “I’ve got systems.” Either way, you win. See you next week.
