The book starts with a time-mapping approach to understand where effort goes, then guides readers in building an “AI workbench” with clear decisions on free versus paid tools and how to tailor instructions. It then walks through hands-on wins like drafting email replies and summarizing meetings, emphasizing verification, refinement, and measurable outcomes for real workplace use.","AI for Everyday Automation  \n7 AI workflows to save hours at work every week  \nDipankar Sarkar  \nAI for Everyday Automation  \nCopyright © 2026 Packt Publishing  \nAll rights reserved.

Your patience during long writing sessions, your sharp eye on early drafts, and your steady belief that this book would be worth the effort carried me through. Thankyou for being my first reader and my most honest critic.  \nTo our two sons, you are too young to read this, but old enough to have noticed that Dada was on his laptop more than usual. Thankyou for the interruptions. They were the best parts of my day.  \nTo my mother, for the discipline that makes a book possible, and the curiosity that makes it interesting. To my sister, foryour constant encouragement and for always asking how the writing was going, even when the answer was, \"slowly. \"  \nTo my father, Amal, Iwish you were here to hold this book. The scientific rigor you brought to your own work taught me how to bring the same to mine. This one is for you.  \nTo my father-in-law and mother-in-law, foryour warmth, your generosity, and the space you gave me to think and write. I am grateful.  \nTo the team at Packt, thankyou for believing that a concise book about AI workflows could be as valuable as a 500-page textbook, and for pushing it to be sharper and more practical at every turn.  \nTo my colleagues at Neul Labs and Skelf Research, the ideas in this book were tested in our daily work before they were written down.
