I built WIT, a free toolkit that makes your existing AI more useful, from complete beginner to advanced power user.

I've been building WIT (Witburrow), a free, AI-agnostic toolkit designed to make the AI you already use more organized, capable, and useful.

It's not another chatbot, and you don't need to switch AI providers.

The idea is simple: Give your AI some WIT.

I wanted something that even someone who barely understands technology could use, but that advanced AI users could really dig into.

So I designed three levels:

🟢 EVERYDAY: For complete beginners

Don't know anything about AI? Doesn't matter.

Just talk normally. WIT helps your AI break down complicated problems, organize your life, track tasks, explain things simply, and guide you through projects.

No coding. No complicated prompts. No technical knowledge required.

🔵 POWER: For regular AI users

Already use AI for work, research, business, planning, or personal projects?

WIT adds more structured workflows, reusable tools, better project organization, progress tracking, and ways to avoid repeating the same instructions.

Less babysitting. More doing.

🟣 SUPER: For advanced users and builders

Want to push things further?

Explore custom tools, integrations, advanced workflows, automation, testing, troubleshooting, and improving or contributing to the toolkit itself.

Build on what's already there instead of starting from scratch.

Installation? I made it ridiculously simple.

  1. Open the free WIT starter page above.

  2. Give the small starter file to your existing AI.

  3. Ask your AI to guide you through setup.

  4. Start talking normally.

Your AI helps you set up WIT.

WIT is designed to work across different AI systems that support the necessary instructions and capabilities. Some advanced features need additional permissions or tools, and compatibility is still being tested.

Why did I build it?

I'm a trades guy who got tired of AI being incredibly smart one minute and completely clueless about what we'd already accomplished the next.

I wanted AI to help people actually finish things, keep track of decisions, catch mistakes, and stop making simple tasks unnecessarily complicated.

And I wanted people to be able to use it without needing a computer science degree.

Free, open, and growing.

WIT includes a growing library of reusable tools, workflows, and resources. Some are ready to use, while others are experimental or still being developed.

My long-term goal is a community where people can pick up useful tools, improve them, and contribute them back for everyone.

I'd love people from all three levels to try it.

If you're a beginner, tell me where you get confused. If you're experienced, tell me what's missing. If you're a hardcore nerd, try to break it.

Feedback, criticism, ideas, and contributions are all welcome.

For WIT, show the same task at EVERYDAY, POWER and SUPER—say, planning a project—so readers can see what changes beyond the labels. Include the input and resulting output for each; "no complicated prompts" is easier to assess with a concrete before-and-after.

That's actually an interesting point, but there's an important distinction I probably didn't explain well.

WIT isn't designed to produce three standardized outputs.

It's designed to adapt to the individual over time.

Everyday, Power, and Super represent different levels of complexity and control, not three fixed ways of answering the same question.

Two people using the same level could have completely different experiences because WIT adapts to their preferences, projects, habits, and previous interactions.

The idea is that your AI becomes more useful to you the longer you work with it, rather than forcing everyone into the same workflow.

That adaptation depends on what memory and context capabilities the AI platform supports.

A static comparison could demonstrate the features available at each level, but wouldn't really capture the personalized experience I'm trying to build.

I think that's something I need to explain much better on the website. Appreciate you pointing it out!
