Guide
Creating Documents with AI
Learn how to use Claude to draft, format, and polish professional documents — proposals, reports, letters, and more — in a fraction of the time.
The AI Document Workflow
Start with the right prompt
Find a matching template in the Prompt Library. The closer the template matches your task, the less editing you'll need.
Give Claude real context
Fill in every bracket with actual details. Include names, dates, addresses, and specific requirements. More context = better output.
Review the first draft
Read through the output. Don't expect perfection — look for structure, tone, and completeness. Is the overall direction right?
Iterate in the same thread
Ask for specific changes: "Make the intro stronger," "Add a section about timeline," "Use more formal language." Each revision gets closer.
Polish and personalize
Add your personal touches, verify facts and numbers, and make sure it sounds like you — not like a robot.
Format and deliver
Copy the final version into your document tool (Word, Google Docs, email). Add headers, logos, and formatting as needed.
Document Types You Can Create
Customer Proposals
Professional proposals that build trust and clearly communicate scope, timeline, and value.
Insurance Narratives
Factual, detailed damage narratives formatted for insurance adjusters.
Status Reports
Weekly or project status reports that keep leadership informed.
Executive Summaries
One-page summaries that distill complex information for decision-makers.
Pro Tips
- Always verify dates, dollar amounts, and names — AI can get details wrong
- Use the "make it shorter" follow-up — first drafts from AI tend to be too long
- Ask Claude to write in your company's voice by describing the tone you want
- For templates you use often, save the filled-in prompt so you can reuse it
- When in doubt, ask Claude: "Is there anything missing from this document?"
