Document your AI use in less than five minutes
Here’s a simple, structured way to capture good practice – for your own records and to share with others.
The Use Case Writer helps you document how you’re using AI.
It asks you a few questions about a recent use of AI, making it easy to record what you did before you forget it, so that you have good examples to refer back to when you’re doing a similar project.
It also asks you to note any time savings or quality improvements. Then the Use Case Writer transforms your responses into a clear practical use case in a format that’s easy to save, and to share with others if you want to.
Start building a clear picture of how AI is helping you – one use case at a time.
The Use Case Writer gives you a structured, repeatable way to grow confidence, capture wins, and improve AI capability across teams.
This AI tool is provided via the Pickaxe platform (using the Claude AI model). Your content is not saved, so please save your use cases on your computer. Your use case is confidential to you – but it’s good practice not to include any sensitive information in your answers (personal, financial or cultural data).
About Me
I help New Zealand council staff to use AI responsibly by helping them identify where it will amplify their skills and good judgment.
With 30 years in the local government sector and a hands-on approach to AI, I offer practical training and tools to make it easy for council staff enhance their productivity by using AI. The Use Case Writer is one of several AI tools I’ve created specifically for council staff – it’s designed to be easy to use alongside your daily work, rather than adding another task to your list.
