Is Claude Projects Free? Streamlining AI Chat Management

I've been in the AI trenches for a while now, and I remember the days of endlessly re-explaining my projects to chatbots. Starting a fresh conversation meant re-uploading files, re-pasting code, and essentially, starting from scratch. It was a productivity killer, especially when you're juggling multiple projects and iterations.

Over time, I've found a few essential ways to make the process smoother:

1. Context is King: The foundation of effective AI chat is relevant context. When I'm working on a new project, I now build a comprehensive 'project profile' by consolidating all the necessary documents, code snippets, and relevant website links.
2. Preserve Your Work: Keeping a record of your chat history is crucial. Re-reading a past conversation is like getting a free refresher course on your current project.
3. Strategic Prompting: The quality of your prompts directly impacts the quality of the output. It's very important to be explicit in your requests, providing clear instructions and specifying the desired format.
4. Iteration and Feedback: The first response you get is rarely the best. Iteration is key. Take the time to revise your prompts based on the output you receive.
5. Tool Selection: Not all AI models are created equal. This is why you *need* a service where you can pick different AI models easily.
6. Efficiency: When you're paying per use you want to be sure that you are not wasting money asking AI models for information it doesn't know.
7. Cost Management: Some AI models can cost a lot to use at a time. To keep costs down, when experimenting, I always start with smaller-context chats, and work my way up.

I realized I needed something better. I was tired of the constant copy-pasting. The thought of setting up my projects just to chat seemed tedious. I was hoping instead, to launch new chats already knowing my data.

That's where Contextch.at comes in! It allows you to setup multiple projects with your websites, files, and repositories. When I started using it, I could start new chats immediately, already knowing my data. Plus, with useful tools like selectable AI models, a context builder, and a cost calculator, it removed all the extra friction. It's pay-per-use, so no subscriptions; which is great!
