Do I need to pay for ChatGPT or Claude to use this book? Not yet. Free tiers of both tools carry you through this book’s TRY IT NOW exercises and your first weeks of real use. You’ll know it’s time to pay (about $20/month) when you hit daily limits during a normal workday — that’s the signal the tool is earning its keep. Chapter 11 covers what the money buys. Is this book going to tell me AI is coming for my job? No. It takes the opposite position, and says so on page one: it is a good tool for words, it does not do your job, it does the writing around your job. The book's own last line on it is “This book will not tell you AI is magic — it’s a power tool, it kicks, and we’ll show you where. And this book will never ask you to put a client anywhere near a chat window. The line runs through every page: AI for the business of your practice. Never for the content of your sessions. Chapter 10 explains exactly where that line sits and why.” You can read the whole opening, The Hour After Your Last Client, free: 2,167 words, no sign-up. What is actually in the 150 prompts?
