# 📚 AiBook.fun
**A living, crowd-written field guide to using AI agents responsibly at work.**
People read **chapters**. Each chapter is a substantial essay for one vertical, with full
workflows nested in the argument. The workflow is the unit of practice: a documented, tested
recipe for a real job, guardrails included. The first edition is written on contract by founding
authors. It launches as a **$47/yr** subscription, crowdfunded on Kickstarter.
> **Status: planning + writing.** Planning docs and the chapter blank live here. The product is
> not yet live. **$47/yr** is signed. Domain `aibook.fun` is renewed. Other figures and unsigned
> terms are still planning assumptions, not for public quote. Launch target **26 Sep 2026**.
## The idea in one loop
The one thing the product must do well:
```
READ a workflow → RUN the Try-it (~15 min) → SHARE the result → (come back)
```
If readers run workflows and share results, the guide is alive. Everything else — community
contribution, cohort learning, onboarding for AI agents — is a layer built on top of that loop.
## Who it's for
Busy professionals — in real estate, financial advice, fractional executive roles, higher
education, community leadership, and technology — who want to **apply an AI workflow this week**,
not read AI theory.
## What's in this repository
This is a documentation and writing repo.
| Document | What it covers |
|:--|:--|
| [Product Requirements (PRD)](AiBook_PRD.md) | What we're building and why. Scope, requirements, success metrics, open decisions |
| [Product Specification (Spec)](AiBook_Spec.md) | The thinking behind it. Vision, principles, content model, business model |
| [Implementation Plan](AiBook_Implementation_Plan.md) | How and when. Path from now to launch and fulfillment |
| [Chapter structure](workflows/chapter-structure.md) | The blank chapter for review. Copy it into a vertical file when writing starts |
New here? Start with the **[Spec](AiBook_Spec.md)** for the vision, then the **[PRD](AiBook_PRD.md)**
for the specifics. Writers start at **[chapter structure](workflows/chapter-structure.md)**.
## How it works (the short version)
- **Content:** readers get a chapter essay. Nested in it, every workflow follows one recipe:
problem, actors, setup, safeguards, method (real tool output), evidence, a ~15-minute Try-it,
share, costs, author. Safeguards sit before the steps. The template is the quality guarantee.
- **Editions:** the guide refreshes annually — which is why it's a subscription. AI moves fast,
and stale advice is worthless.
- **Contribution:** the first edition is written by a founding set of co-authors; open community
contribution follows once the library is worth browsing.
- **Responsible by design:** the guardrails (data handling, human oversight, failure modes) are
part of every workflow, not an appendix.
## Project status & roadmap
| Stage | Focus |
|:--|:--|
| **Now → launch** | Seed the founding library, build the campaign, crowdfund the first edition |
| Post-launch | Fulfill the first edition; open community contribution |
| Later | Cohort learning, annual editions, deeper ecosystem integration |
