The guide in text

Bright Path Landscaping (made up) asks Claude for a lawn price calculator. 5 steps.

Step by step

Describe the tool
Say who it is for, what customers enter, the prices to use, and that it must show how the price is worked out.
Try it in the panel
The calculator opens beside the chat. Enter an 8,000 square foot lawn and click Aeration and Fertilizing.
Check the math
Aeration on 8,000 square feet is $40 + $8 × 8 = $104 a visit. If the working shown does not match, ask Claude to fix it.
Ask for one change
In the same chat, add a Number of visits box and 10% off at 10 visits or more. 26 weekly mows come to $1,146.60.
Share it with a link
Click Share, change who has access, then Copy link. Open it in a private window first to see what a customer sees.
