How to build your JARVIS.

A real JARVIS, answering like it knows you.

Not a generic chatbot — the actual second brain you will build, holding your real numbers, people and goals while it answers. Swipe through three live moments.

Illustrative — a real JARVIS answers with your own numbers and names.

Six steps, in build order.

Each step is one sitting. Do them in order — every step assumes the one above it exists.

1. Pick your context — business or life

   Before you write a single word, decide what JARVIS runs. There are two lanes, and the whole build is cleaner if you commit to one first.

   • Business brain — it thinks about your company: sales, leads, cash, customers, tasks. Best if you run or work in a business and want a chief of staff.
   • Life brain — it thinks about you: money, health, projects, family, goals. Best if you want a personal operating system that keeps your life on track.

   You can build both later. For now, pick one. Paste the little self-interview into your AI and answer out loud in the chat — it drags the raw material out of your head so Step 2 is just tidying up.

   The copy-paste prompt is in the JARVIS course“The pick + brain-dump prompt” — ready to paste, with the video walkthrough.

   Don't overthink the lane. If you are not sure, pick the one that is stressing you out today. That is where a second brain pays off first.

2. Write your CONTEXT file

   This is the heart of JARVIS. Open a blank doc, title it CONTEXT.md, and fill in the template with the summary you just generated. Be specific — real names, real numbers. The AI is only as smart as what it can see, so give it eyes.

   Don't chase perfect. A rough, honest CONTEXT beats a polished, vague one. You will add to it every week.

   Where to keep it: a Google Doc, a Note, or a plain .md file all work. The point is that it lives in one place you can copy from every time. That single file is the thing nobody else can clone.

3. Set the system prompt that turns the AI into JARVIS

   Now the personality and rules. Start a fresh chat, paste the prompt first, then paste your entire CONTEXT.md right after it. From that moment the AI stops being a generic bot and starts answering as your operator.

   On Claude and ChatGPT you can make this permanent: drop the prompt into Custom Instructions, Project instructions, a Claude Project or a Custom GPT so you never paste it again — just open the chat and go.

   The copy-paste prompt is in the JARVIS course“JARVIS — the system prompt”, with the video walkthrough. A free starter version lives on the JARVIS build page.

   Open the lesson →
   Test it immediately. After you paste your context, ask “What am I missing?” and “What should I do first today?”. If the answers reference your real numbers and names, JARVIS is alive. If they are generic, your CONTEXT file needs more real detail — go back and feed it.

4. Add a department (or area) sub-brain

   One brain that knows everything is powerful. But your best thinking happens when JARVIS goes deep on one area — a sub-brain that only wears one hat. In a business that is a Sales brain, an Ops brain, a Finance brain. In a life it is a Money brain, a Health brain, a Projects brain.

   A sub-brain is just the system prompt above plus a role focus and the slice of data for that area. Swap the role and it becomes any area you want.

   The copy-paste prompt is in the JARVIS course“Sub-brain — the Sales / Money brain” — a worked example you adapt, with the video walkthrough.

   Open the lesson →
   Keep sub-brains in separate chats (or separate Projects/GPTs). One tab for Sales, one for Money, one for Health. Each stays focused and does not drown in the others' data. Your main JARVIS chat stays the zoom-out view.

5. Wire a morning briefing

   This is the highest-ROI habit of the whole system. Once a day you hand JARVIS what changed and it hands you a sharp briefing back. Do this for five mornings and you will never run blind again. The prompt is short, because your system prompt already defined what “briefing” means — you just feed it the fresh stuff.

   The copy-paste prompt is in the JARVIS course“Morning briefing — daily prompt” — ready to paste, with the video walkthrough.

   How to make it actually happen every day — pick the lightest option you will stick to:

   • Phone shortcut (easiest): save the prompt as a text-replacement snippet or a home-screen note. Every morning: open JARVIS, paste, fill the blanks. 60 seconds.
   • Calendar nudge: a recurring 7:00am reminder titled “JARVIS briefing” with the prompt in the notes field. The reminder is the ritual.
   • Scheduled task: in ChatGPT use Tasks (or a Claude scheduled routine) to auto-run a briefing at a set time so it is waiting for you. Paste yesterday's data the night before and wake up to the answer.
   Consistency beats cleverness. A rough briefing every single day will change your results more than a perfect one you do twice. Lower the bar until it is impossible to skip.

6. Go further — voice & live data

   You now have a working JARVIS. Two upgrades make it feel like the movie:

   • Talk to it. Both the ChatGPT and Claude apps have voice mode. Open your JARVIS chat, tap the mic, and just ask — “what's my day look like, what am I forgetting?” Hearing your briefing out loud while you make coffee is the moment it clicks.
   • Stop pasting — go live. The manual version has you paste data in. The next level connects it so each brain updates itself. The live-data cheat turns any messy export into clean context in one shot.

   The full jump — a 3D command center where every area is a live node pulling its own data, automations that brief you before you wake, and connected tools instead of copy-paste — is Vol. IX, the Command Station. You have the skeleton; that is the nervous system.

Now get the whole machine.

You just built a real, working JARVIS by hand — and it already beats what most people ever get from AI. The full course does all of this automatically and hands you every prompt and template, so you skip the 100 hours of trial and error.
