Quickstart
In your first ten minutes you'll go from zero to a working file the AI made for you. No code, nothing to install.
1. Create an account
Open microlearnerai.com and sign up with your email and a password, or with Google Sign-In. The Free plan needs no credit card. You can also try a community skill on the landing page without an account — but building and keeping files requires signing in.
2. Open the chat
Click AI Chat in the top nav (or any "Start Now" / "Get started" button). That opens the chat app at /ai-chat/. At the bottom of the screen is the message box — that's the whole product, basically.
You'll see a model picker on the right side of the input row. Instant is the default (fastest); Expert reasons more deeply. Leave it on Instant to start.
3. Ask for a real thing
The trick: don't ask questions, ask for things. Instead of "how do I make a budget?", say:
Make me a monthly budget spreadsheet with my income
at the top, categories on the left, and a chart.MicroLearnerAI will write the code to build that spreadsheet, run it on its execution engine, and attach the finished .xlsx file right in the chat. Open it with a click.
4. Iterate in plain English
Let's say the budget looks off. You don't edit the file — you tell the chat:
Add a second sheet that tracks spending by week, and
color-code anything over budget in red.It edits the file and gives you a new version. You can keep iterating as long as you want; each version appears as its own artifact card with a diff view when code changes.
5. What to try next
- Ask for other file types: PowerPoint decks, PDFs, PNG charts, CSVs.
- Save a skill: after a great workflow, ask "save this as a skill" — it becomes reusable (see Skills).
- Schedule a task: "every weekday at 9am, summarize AI news" (see Scheduled tasks).
- Connect Google: "email this file to me" or "save this to my Drive" wires up Gmail/Drive/Calendar (see Connectors).
- Check your usage: the Free plan resets its usage cap every few hours — see Plans & pricing.
Good to know from day one
- Usage is cost-based, not per-message: each plan has a session cost cap (USD of model cost) that resets every few hours. Within the cap, messages are unlimited.
- Files appear in the Artifacts gallery too: every generated/downloaded file is saved to Settings → Artifacts.
- Chat requires an account; the chat history persists per user and archives after ~14 days idle (rehydrates when you come back).
- Report problems in-product: use the Report a bug button in the chat top bar rather than emailing.
