Not sure where to start?
Tell us one job you do every week. We'll map it, and point you to the right course.
No. Courses start from zero, in plain English. If someone can send an email, they can start.
Do we have to buy new tools?
No. We start with the tools your team already uses, and only suggest a new one when it clearly helps.
What happens to our information?
It stays yours. We only use it to map your team's jobs and run your course. We never sell it, and we'll delete it whenever you ask. Read the short version.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the size of your team and how many jobs we map together. We'll give you a clear price on the call, before you agree to anything.

Done it .today?
Tell us about a job you now do with AI. We'd love to share it.
Lots of people hear about AI every day, but nobody shows them what it could do in their own week. So we start from the work you already do, and teach you to do the fiddly parts yourself.
I'm Jamil, and I build apps and websites for small businesses. I keep meeting clever, capable people who feel AI isn't for them, because nobody has shown them where it fits in their own work. doingit.today is my answer: start from a job you really do, and learn the AI parts one small step at a time.
What we believe
Plain English, alwaysNo jargon, and nothing assumed.

What this website collects
Who we are
doingit.today is run by DoingIt Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17108880). Our registered office is 1st Floor, 57 Farringdon Road, London EC1M 3JB. We are responsible for any information this website handles.
Nothing you type is sent
doingit.today isn't open for sign-ups yet, so there are no accounts. The sign-up and log-in forms and the free check work only in your browser: the forms clear what you type, and nothing you type in them leaves your device.
Booking a call and our emails
The book-a-call form and the newsletter box don't send anything themselves. They write your request into an email in your own email app, addressed to us, and nothing reaches us unless you press Send there. We then treat it like any other email you send us.
No cookies, no tracking
We don't use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers. Our fonts and photos come from our own website, so loading a page doesn't tell any other company that you visited.
Our hosting provider's logs
Like every website, ours runs on a hosting provider's servers. When you load a page, those servers briefly record technical details such as your IP address, your browser and the page you asked for. This keeps the site working and safe, and the provider deletes these records after a short time.
When you email us
If you write to jamil@doingit.today, we use your email address and message only to reply to you. We delete them when we no longer need them, or sooner if you ask.
Links to other websites
Some pages link to free courses and photos on other websites. When you follow a link, that website's own privacy policy applies.
Your rights
Ask us anything
You can ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email jamil@doingit.today and we'll reply within a month.
Making a complaint
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, please tell us first. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
When this page changes
Before doingit.today opens sign-ups, we'll update this page to say exactly what we keep and why. We won't collect anything new until it does.
