John Karras
AI Enablement Consultant and Claude Expert
I use Claude every day to run Checkmark Tutorials — where I’m co-founder and head instructor — and my AI consulting firm, where I train teams and deploy AI agents for clients.
This course is the way I actually work, taught the way I teach at Checkmark: live, practical, and built around the work in front of you.

Questions people ask first
Do I need a paid Claude plan?
For most of it, yes. Claude Chat works on the free plan, but Cowork, Claude in Excel and Claude in Chrome need a paid plan — Pro is $20 USD a month.
How does the launch price work?
Enter LAUNCH300 at checkout and the course is $299 instead of $599. The code is limited to the first 30 sign-ups — once they're claimed it stops working and the course goes back to full price.
What if I miss a session?
Every session is recorded, so you can catch up anytime.
Why does the payment page say “John Karras AI”?
Checkout is handled by my AI company, so that's the name you'll see on the payment page and on your receipt.
