AI EXPERIMENTATION LOG — RUN THIS PROMPT
Zero → Frontier — free, ungated, no attribution required

HOW TO USE THIS: Use this after trying a new AI tool or workflow for
the first time. Paste in what happened, and the AI structures it into
a proper log entry — building a record of what's actually been tried,
so your team doesn't repeat failed experiments or lose track of wins.

---

I just tried a new AI tool or workflow. Help me log this properly:

WHAT I TRIED: [tool/workflow name and what you were attempting]
WHAT HAPPENED: [messy notes are fine — what worked, what didn't]
TIME SPENT: [rough estimate]
WOULD YOU DO THIS AGAIN?: [yes/no/with changes]

Structure this into a log entry with:
1. Date and summary (one line)
2. What was tried and why
3. Outcome — be honest if it didn't work, don't spin a failure into
   a false success
4. Time invested vs. time saved (or lost)
5. Recommendation: adopt, adopt with changes, or abandon — and why
6. Tags for searchability (e.g. tool name, task category, team)

If I described a failure, don't soften it — an honest log of what
doesn't work is exactly as valuable as a log of what does, and softening
it defeats the purpose of keeping this record at all.
