What this book delivers

Five extra hours a week.
Starting next week.

Not by working harder. Not by waking up earlier. By letting a quiet assistant handle the parts of your day that don't need you — so you can focus on the parts that do.

01
Tame Your Inbox
Three proven AI systems that cut email time by 30–50%. Draft responses in seconds, triage hundreds of emails in minutes, decode endless threads instantly.
02
Perfect Meeting Notes
Be fully present in every conversation. Let AI capture decisions, action items, and open questions — then deliver a clean summary in under 5 minutes.
03
Ideas to Published Writing
Turn scattered voice memos and bullet points into polished LinkedIn posts, newsletters, and client updates — in 15 minutes from idea to publish.

You've earned your expertise.
Now let's protect it.

  • You're 40+ and have decades of hard-won judgment
  • You feel behind on AI but skeptical of the hype
  • Your inbox owns you more than you own it
  • You leave meetings drowning in unclear notes
  • Good ideas die in your voice memo app
  • You want calm efficiency, not frantic optimization
  • You refuse to believe a chatbot can replace 30 years of experience
You didn't spend decades becoming an expert so you could spend your afternoons reformatting bullet points. You did it so you could solve problems, build relationships, and create things that matter. — From Chapter One

7 chapters · 3 complete workflows · 30+ copy-paste prompts · Real before/after examples · A full Prompt Library you can keep on your desktop · No coding required

Iko Jano
Author · The Unhurried Productivity Series

Iko Jano spent decades building expertise the hard way — through late nights, difficult clients, and the kind of on-the-job learning that can't be taught in any course. Along the way, came the discovery that the most valuable skill isn't working faster, but knowing what not to work on at all.

After watching too many talented colleagues burn out on administrative overwhelm, Iko began developing practical systems for using new tools to protect what matters most: judgment, relationships, and the space to think. The result is a philosophy of "unhurried productivity" — using technology to create calm, not chaos.

The Unhurried Automator is the first book in the Unhurried Productivity series, written for midlife professionals who refuse to believe that thirty years of experience can be replaced by a chatbot.
