AI Friction-Free
Reclaim Your Time with Everyday AI Agents, Prompts & Automations
If you've ever...
- Bought an "AI productivity" book that turned out to be a thousand prompts with no context.
- Spent forty minutes comparing tools and given up before setting any of them up.
- Watched a friend evangelize Claude and quietly wondered if you were the problem.
- Saved a TikTok with a "this will change your life" prompt and never opened it again.
- Felt like everyone else is getting an extra hour a day and you're getting more meetings.
...this book is for you.
Eight chapters. Eight specific outcomes. One handbook.

FAQ.
Will there be an audiobook?
Maybe later. The book has 44 designed visuals — including reference tables, prompt boxes, and worksheets — so audio is a poor fit for the first edition. If demand is strong post-launch, a narration-only edition with a companion PDF is on the table.
Is there a refund?
Amazon's standard 7-day refund applies to Kindle purchases and KDP paperback returns. The two companion PDFs (Visual Guide + Prompt Vault) are free — there's nothing to refund. Email hello@aifrictionfree.com with any other question.
Was any of this written by AI?
The book is written by Marin Veld (a human, working under a pen name) with AI used as a thinking and editing tool — the same way the book recommends using AI. No content was generated end-to-end by AI; every paragraph was written, edited, and approved by a human author.
What if I'm not a busy parent or professional?
You'll still get value. The frameworks apply to anyone trying to reclaim time. The examples lean toward family + work life because that's where most of the testing happened, but the core patterns (the four-part prompt, the three workflow patterns, the friction framework) apply universally.
