A free guide by New Money School
Save This
If you've learned a bunch about AI but still freeze on what to actually do with it, this free Anthropic page is the fix. Here's how to use it.
The hardest part of learning AI isn't the tools. It's staring at a blank screen and thinking "okay… now what do I actually use this for?" Anthropic quietly built a free page that answers exactly that, and almost nobody knows it exists. It's called the Claude use cases page, and it's a living library of real, practical ways people use Claude. Save this, then go steal a few ideas for your exact job.
Step 1What It Actually Is
A library of real examples
Not Theory, Real Workflows
The use cases page is a browsable gallery of practical examples across research, writing, analysis, coding, and everyday tasks. Each one shows a real job-to-be-done, which Claude feature or product it uses, and what the finished result looks like. It's the difference between "AI can help with marketing" and "here is the exact thing a marketer did, copy it."
Step 2Filter By Your Job
Find your lane in one click
Browse By Industry
The fastest move: filter by your category and only look at examples built for people like you. The page is sorted into lanes including:
Marketing · Sales · Finance · HR · Legal · Education · Research · Personal · Professional · Nonprofits · Life Sciences · Cowork.
Click yours, and every example on screen is suddenly relevant to your actual day. No more guessing whether a tip applies to you.
Step 3Filter By Feature Or Product
Learn the part you don't know yet
Browse By Capability
If you keep hearing about a Claude feature and want to see it in action, filter by it instead. You can sort by features like Projects, Skills, Connectors, Artifacts, Web Search, and Extended Thinking, or by products like Claude in Excel, Claude in Chrome, Claude Cowork, and Claude Design. It's the easiest way to finally understand a feature, by seeing exactly what people do with it.
Step 4Real Examples To Steal
A taste of what's in there
Copy These To Start
Finance: draft a credit memo from borrower filings, or update a financial model right after an earnings announcement.
Marketing: audit brand compliance across a whole folder of images at full resolution.
Education: turn a single textbook page into a slide deck and a student handout at different reading levels.
Personal: have Claude handle email requests and tasks while you're away from your desk.
These are just a few. The point isn't to copy mine, it's to open the page, find your role, and grab the one that makes you go "oh, I need that."
Step 5Turn An Example Into Your Own
The 30-second move
Adapt, Don't Just Admire
Found one you like? Don't just nod at it. Open Claude, describe your version of that exact task with your real details, and let it build. Here's a simple prompt to adapt any example you find:
Paste this into Claude (swap in the example + your details)
Copy
I saw an example of using Claude to [describe the use case you found on the\
use cases page]. I want to do my own version for [your job / your situation].
Here are my real details: [paste the specifics — your task, your tools, what\
the finished result should look like].
Walk me through how to set this up step by step, then do the first one with me.
That's the whole game: stop collecting ideas, pick one, and actually run it today.
Why this matters
Most people learning AI quit because they never connect it to their real work. The use cases page is the bridge. Bookmark it, check it when you're stuck, and you'll never run out of things to actually do with Claude. Browse it free here: claude.com/resources/use-cases
