Replace 10+ tools with one AI
You're Managing Tools,
Not Your Work
Wake up. Check Slack. Sift through Gmail. Open Notion. Jump into Asana. Skim your calendar. Look at Linkedin. Copy-paste between ChatGPT and a Google Doc.
Software forces us to conform.
What if you deleted your apps?
Earlier this year, a friend told me his CEO—who'd never written a line of code—was running their company from a code editor. Since then, I've deleted almost all of my software tools and run everything from Claude Code.
I set the direction. Claude executes.

Hi, I'm Derek Larson
I run New York AI and have built multiple AI startups.
For the past six months, I've run my businesses with Claude Code and text files. I wrote an essay about it—hundreds of people reached out asking how to migrate.
This course is the result.
What people are saying
"Like we trained a new employee, but it's AI with our files."
"Didn't realize the mental toll all these tools took on me until cloning this approach."
"I can't believe this is possible without code."
