Common questions

Where should I start with AI automation and agents?

Choose a course based on the tools you use and the task you want to automate. AI Automations covers connected workflows with n8n. Google Workspace Studio is a starting point for Google Workspace users, while the agent courses focus on specific platforms and use cases.

What is the difference between an automation, an agent, and a skill?

An automation connects steps in a repeatable process. An AI agent can use instructions and tools to decide how to work toward a goal. A skill packages reusable instructions, examples, or resources for a recurring task. These courses show how the approaches fit together in practical workflows.

Do I need to know how to code?

Several courses use visual tools such as Google Workspace Studio and Zapier Agents. AI Automations is an intermediate course, and setup requirements vary by platform. Check the course overview and curriculum to choose a starting point that fits your experience.

Are these courses included with Pro?

Every course in this hub is included with Rundown University Pro, along with the full on-demand course library, course certifications, member resources, and perk drops. Subscriptions or usage charges for the tools covered in the courses are separate.

Do I need to take the courses in order?

You can choose the workflow or agent platform that matches your work. For the Claude skills courses, start with Custom Skills 101 before moving on to Custom Skills 201.
