Every Invite Looks Like A Yes At First

If you're like me, a collab invite shows up and your first thought is, "Yes, this could be great." Then come the open tabs, the rules to read, and the dates to check. And the question underneath: do I really have room for this?

A gut feeling is quick, but it can't read the fine print or check your calendar. Reviewing from scratch eats up your time.

Your Compass keeps your goals and does the checking with you.

How It Works

Four Easy Steps

Works for any kind of collab: summits, bundles, podcast guesting, swaps, and more.

1

Tell It Your Goals Once

Answer a few quick questions about who you serve and what you want from a collab. It remembers.

2

Share The Host's Page

Drop in a link, a PDF, or the details. It checks your goals, the audience, the dates, and the rules about what you can share afterward.

3

Get Your Result

A simple card with a label and the reasons behind it. Then you choose your next step.

Add It To Your Tools

If your project manager and calendar are connected to Claude, it can add the collab as a new project and put the dates on your calendar. It always asks first.

Questions You Might Have

What Is A Claude Skill?

It's a set of instructions you add to your Claude account. Once it's added, Claude knows exactly how to check a collab for you.

How Much Is It?

$37, one time, with no subscription. Your Claude plan is billed separately by Claude.

What Do I Need To Use It?

A paid Claude plan, since that's what lets skills run. It also helps to know who you serve and what you want out of a collab. Connecting your calendar and task manager, and sharing your brand colors and fonts, is optional.

What Does It Check?

The host, who the audience is, the gift rules, whether you can sell something afterward, the deadlines, and what you'd be promising to do. If a detail isn't clear, it tells you what to confirm with the host. It can only work with what the host shares, so it's a guide, not a guarantee.

What Kinds Of Collabs Does It Work For?

Any kind. Summits, bundles, podcast guesting, swaps, and more. If the host shares a page, a PDF, or the details, it can read them.

Which Calendars And Task Managers Work?

Google Calendar and Outlook work well. Apple Calendar doesn't connect to Claude yet. Most popular task managers do, like Notion, Asana, ClickUp, and Trello. Claude adds new connections often, so check Claude's connector list for the latest.

How Long Does Setup Take?

It asks 9 quick questions, one at a time. Plan on about 5 to 10 minutes, shorter than a coffee break. It's quicker if your answers are ready, your tools are connected, and your branding is handy.

Can I Make It My Own?

Yes. Add your brand colors and fonts so your cards look like you. Fonts only show if Claude supports them. Want to change something later? Just say "Update my Compass setup."

Will It Add Anything Without Asking?

Never. It shows you what it would add, and only adds it after you say yes.

Is My Information Private?

Your answers live in your own Claude account. I don't get a copy of them or of the collabs you check.

Does It Make The Decision For Me?

No. It's a guide. You make the call.

What If I Get Stuck?

Your setup guide walks you through each step. You can also reply to any of my emails, and I'll help.
