Try it: plan your two-week AI pilot

This is the working version of our two-week pilot tutorial, running right here in your browser. Fill in your workflow, baseline, goal, and stop rule, and it builds your day-by-day plan — the same ten steps as the tutorial, with checkboxes you can tick off as you go. Nothing you type leaves this page.

Mistakes that sink a two-week pilot

Picking a workflow that is really five workflows. "Handle member email" is not one workflow; "draft first replies to dues-renewal questions" is. If picking it took more than ten minutes, narrow it further.
Skipping the baseline. A baseline written from memory in week two flatters the pilot.
Letting the pilot sprawl past its dates. Open-ended pilots quietly become permanent habits. The decision happens on schedule even if the data feels thin.
Treating "stop" as failure. Sometimes the right tool is no AI at all. A pilot that proves a workflow should stay human is a successful pilot.

Your pilot

Workflow name

Who runs it

Baseline (how it goes today, in real numbers)

Target (what you hope to reach)

Goal sentence

Stop rule (write it now, while still neutral)

Start date

Measure and decide

Week two runs on this log: one row per run — what you asked, what came back, what you fixed. It is what the week-two comparison is measured against.

Date

Run

Time taken / metric

Notes (what you fixed)

Make the call

Keep it, change it, or stop it — checked against the goal and stop rule you wrote in week one.

Decision

Keep it Change it Stop it

Reason (one sentence)

Next step

Check your result

Before you call the pilot done, confirm each of these in your log:

The baseline numbers are written down from before the pilot started.
Every run has a log entry with what was fixed.
The week-two numbers are compared against the baseline.
The costs you counted include fixing and review time.
The decision is written in one sentence with the reason.
The one-page report exists and is filed where others can find it.

How this maps to the tutorial

The generated plan is the tutorial's ten steps, day by day: days 1–5 cover week one (pick the workflow, record the baseline, set the goal and stop rule, run with a human check, log each run), and days 6–10 cover week two (compare, count the costs, decide, report, file). The log above is step 5's run log, and the decision block is step 8. The full reasoning, worked example, and sources are in the tutorial this demo comes from. Read the tutorial.

The planner above runs the method in your browser. The starter kit is the same method as documents you can keep: a blank ten-step plan template matching the tutorial's structure, plus the measurement log as a CSV. Free with your email — that's how we keep the lights on.
