Get Your AI Working For You
Show up with your laptop. Leave with a personal AI that works for you — on a schedule, by itself.
Everybody gets the chatting part in ten minutes, then stops at the part that actually pays: the connectors, the permissions, the sign-ins and the settings, and the standing schedule that makes the thing run without being asked. That is the wall, and it is a bad one to hit alone. So bring the laptop you actually use, pick one of the five below, and sit down next to somebody who has set these up a few hundred times. You push every button — every approve, every allow, every permission is yours. It runs on your machine, on your account. You leave with one real job running on its own.
- Bring a laptop, not a phone — all five are set up from a desktop app on your own machine, under your own account, and nothing gets installed on ours.
- You push every button — every approve, every allow, every sign-in. We never take the keyboard and we never ask for a password.
- You leave with it scheduled — not a list of steps to try later at home. It runs once in front of you before you go.
- One hour, $20, paid after — no subscription, nothing to cancel, and nothing to pay until the work is done.
Offer ends Saturday, October 31. $20 flat, paid after your appointment — never before.

Questions
Before you book
What actually happens in the hour?
You bring your laptop and we pick one job worth handing over. Then we set it up together: the app itself if it is not installed yet, the connectors it needs, the skills or the plugin, the permissions, and the schedule that makes it run on its own. You drive and we sit beside you. Before you leave it runs once, in front of you, so you can watch it work.
Which AI can I pick?
One of five: Anthropic’s Claude, OpenAI’s Dot, SpaceX’s Grok Bot, Google’s Gemini Spark or Meta’s Muse (Mac only for now). Dot is new and needs a ChatGPT Pro or Business Premium plan; Plus does not include it. At this price it is those five and nothing else, and it has to be the app on a laptop — not a phone and not a tablet. Charleston AI is vendor-agnostic and will happily work on whatever else you own, Microsoft Copilot included. That is a regular appointment at the lab, not this $20 one.
Who pushes the buttons?
You do. Every approve, every allow, every permission, every sign-in. We never take the keyboard and we never ask you for a password. That is deliberate: it is your account and your machine, and you should be the only person who has ever signed into either.
What is a scheduled task?
A job your AI does at a time you set, without being asked. Every Sunday night it reads the week of receipts and files them. Every morning at six it reads what came in overnight and leaves you four lines. On the first of the month it builds the report you have been building by hand for years. That is the thing you leave with.
I have never used any of these. Is that a problem?
No — that is exactly who this is for. The best way to learn AI is to use AI, and you will learn more in one hour on your own laptop doing your own work than in a week of watching other people do it.
What should I bring?
The laptop you actually use, and the ability to sign in to it. If the AI is going to reach your mail, your calendar or your files, you will be signing into those too — so bring your phone if that is where the codes land.
