You can't sleep.
Your job might not exist next year.
You haven't had a real conversation in weeks.
You're one bad month away from panic.
What if your AI already knew how to help?
HumanSurvive gives ChatGPT, Claude, or any AI the step-by-step knowledge to actually guide you -- negotiating medical bills, fighting insurance denials, surviving a layoff, escaping burnout. Real procedures. Not generic advice.
Why this works
ChatGPT is smart, but when you ask it for help with a real crisis, you get generic advice. "Consider budgeting." "Try deep breathing." "Consult a lawyer." It knows a little about everything and a lot about nothing.
HumanSurvive skills change that. Each one is a detailed guide written by people with real expertise -- the exact scripts, letter templates, phone numbers, and step-by-step procedures that professionals use. When your AI reads one, it stops giving generic advice and starts walking you through it like an advocate sitting next to you.
How to cut a hospital bill in half. Appeal a denied insurance claim. Know your rights when your landlord won't fix the heat. Plan a safe exit from a dangerous situation. Rebuild after a layoff. These aren't tips. They're the actual playbooks.
Copy a skill, paste it into your AI, and ask for help. That's it. Your AI becomes the support system you actually need.
How it works
Three steps. No tech skills needed.
If you can copy and paste, you can use HumanSurvive.

paste it into your AI
Copy the skill and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, or whichever AI you use. Then tell it what you need help with.
your AI walks you through it
Instead of generic advice, your AI now has the real procedures -- the scripts, the letters, the exact steps. It guides you through them one by one.
Step 2: Emergency stabilization (Week 1)
Do NOT try to fix everything at once. This week is about stopping the bleeding.
-- Set a hard stop on screens at 10pm
-- No work email after 7pm
-- Identify the 3 things that MUST happen this week
-- Everything else gets pushed, delegated, or dropped
...
Not motivational quotes. Not generic advice. The actual protocols, exercises, scripts, and procedures that professionals use -- written so your AI can walk you through them step by step.

About
Why this exists.
the problem
AI is getting better every week. But when you ask it for help with a real crisis -- a medical bill, a layoff, an anxiety spiral -- you get the same generic advice you could find on page one of Google.
The knowledge that actually helps -- the scripts, the letter templates, the phone numbers, the step-by-step procedures that professionals use -- isn't in the training data. It's in the heads of advocates, social workers, nurses, and people who've been through it.
how we build skills
Every skill is researched from clinical frameworks, legal resources, and professional protocols -- then structured so your AI can walk you through it step by step.
Community submissions are evaluated by AI for specificity (real procedures, not vague advice), actionability (can you actually follow the steps?), and safety (does it avoid harm and include crisis resources where needed?).
important note
HumanSurvive skills are informational resources, not professional advice. For medical, legal, or mental health emergencies, always consult a qualified professional. Skills that deal with crisis situations include relevant hotlines and professional resources. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 911. For mental health crises, call or text 988.
