Build your AI edge, one real experiment at a time.

Most AI newsletters make your reading list longer. The Experiment Log is built to make your work better.

Every fortnight, I test one AI approach on a real piece of work and send you the evidence. You see how I set it up, what changed, the number behind the result, and whether I kept it or binned it.

Then you get one focused experiment to try on your own work.

What lands in your inbox, in full.

Every issue follows the same four beats, so you always know what you are reading and what to do with it.

01
The task
A recognisable piece of work, the AI approach I tested and enough detail to understand how it worked.
Last issue
Goal-oriented prompts against traditional system prompts. Same job, two ways of asking for it.
02
The set-up
How the experiment was run, in enough detail that you could repeat it on your own work.
Last issue
Two prompts on the same task, 733 words against 87, run side by side.
03
One experiment for you
A focused test you can adapt to your own work before the next issue arrives.
The result and the verdict
The difference it made to time, quality or output, and whether the approach earned a permanent place in how I work. No vague claims and no carefully chosen demonstration.

The verdict
Kept

Kept or binned, always stated. Goal-oriented prompting earned a permanent place in how I work.

Turn occasional shortcuts into an advantage that lasts.

A prompt that saves 10 minutes once is useful. A tested way of working that keeps delivering is an edge.

The Experiment Log helps you find those repeatable gains. You build a clearer view of where AI improves your work, where it gets in the way and what deserves a permanent place in your workflow.

The goal is not to become good at AI. It is to become better at the work that matters.

Over time

You stop chasing tools that never improve the work, and start turning isolated AI wins into ways of working you can repeat.

You build evidence for what works instead of relying on confident claims, and become the person who knows how to make AI useful, not merely available.
