Build a Second Brain with Claude
Build a Personal AI System That Remembers Everything and Gets Smarter as You Use It
You keep re-explaining your context, re-making the same decisions, and forgetting what worked. A second brain fixes that. This course walks you through building a personal AI system in Claude that stores your context, goals, and decisions, answers questions on demand, and stays useful with a 20-minute weekly ritual - built on a portable, file-based setup that never holds your knowledge hostage.

Education Operations Lead @ GenAI.Works
Course Overview
The problem isn't that you forget - it's that your tools do. Every new chat starts from zero, so you re-explain your world and re-make old decisions. A second brain ends that.
You'll design a simple, file-based architecture that stores your context, goals, and decisions, learn to capture what matters without busywork, then query your brain for prep, recall, and better decisions. A light weekly ritual keeps it compounding.
Because it's built on portable files rather than a locked-in app, your second brain moves with you across tools and never holds your knowledge hostage. You'll finish with a working system you actually maintain.
