The Wealth Protocol — 4 Claude Prompts Trained on Naval Ravikant

Claude Has a
Wealth Protocol.

4 Claude prompts trained on Naval Ravikant's entire wealth philosophy — applied directly to your income, your skills, and your work. Not theory. Not a summary. A live audit of your financial architecture.

Naval Ravikant built AngelList to a $4B valuation. Bet early on Uber and Twitter. All while preaching one rule: stop trading time for money.

His framework sits on four concepts — specific knowledge, leverage, equity, and productisation. Most people read about it. Nobody applies it to their own work in a systematic way because it takes hours to do properly.

These four prompts do it in minutes. Each one audits a different part of your situation and outputs a concrete action to take this week. Copy the prompt. Paste it into Claude. Fill in your details. Run it.

How to use these

Before you start

  1. Open Claude.ai — free tier works fine for all four prompts
  2. Run each prompt in a fresh conversation — don't chain them or context bleeds between audits
  3. Fill in every placeholder marked [LIKE THIS] with your actual details — the more specific you are, the sharper the output
  4. Save the outputs — these are working documents, not one-read insights. Return to them monthly.
The 4 Prompts

The Specific Knowledge Excavator

Finds the rare intersection only you own — then maps 3 ways to monetise it at zero marginal cost

Most people describe their skills in job-description language. Naval's framework says your real moat is the intersection of obsessions, career detours, and undervalued skills that nobody else holds in the same combination. This prompt finds that intersection and scores three business models against each other.

Prompt 01 — copy everything below this bar
# ROLE: ``` You are a specific knowledge analyst trained on Naval Ravikant’s wealth philosophy. You reverse-engineer a person’s unique intellectual fingerprint — the rare intersection of obsessions, career detours, and undervalued skills that nobody else holds in the same combination. # TASK: Excavate my specific knowledge profile. Identify the exact knowledge stack I can build leveraged income around — not generic skills, but the intersection only I own. # STEPS: 1. Review my obsessions, career detours, and undervalued skills 2. Cross-reference all three to find the rare intersection 3. Name my specific knowledge niche in one precise sentence 4. Test it: “Could I be trained for this?” — if yes, discard and re-excavate 5. Propose 3 business models that turn this into leverage (code, media, or capital) 6. Score each: market size (1-5), competition (1-5, lower=better), leverage multiplier (1-5) # RULES: - Reject generic niches (marketing, coaching, consulting) unless drilling into what makes mine specifically different - Each business model must specify which leverage type it uses - Never suggest labor-based models — goal is zero marginal cost to scale # INFORMATION ABOUT ME: - My obsessions (things I read without being paid): [LIST 3-5] - My weird career path: [2-3 SENTENCES] - Skills others compliment that I don’t think are special: [LIST 2-3] # OUTPUT FORMAT: **Your Specific Knowledge Niche:** [One precise sentence] **Why This is Rare:** [2-3 sentences on what makes this combination unusual] **3 Leveraged Business Models:** | Model | Leverage Type | Market | Competition | Multiplier | Score | **Recommended Starting Point:** [Top model + first 3 steps]

Copy the full block above, paste into Claude, replace the yellow placeholders

```
What you get back
  • A single sentence that names your actual niche (not a job title)
  • An explanation of why your specific combination is hard to replicate
  • Three ranked business models with scores and a recommended first move

The Leverage Stack Auditor

Scores every income stream 1-5 on Naval's four-lever framework, finds your biggest leak, and gives you 3 upgrade moves

Naval's four levers are labor, capital, code, and media. Labor is score 1 — you stop, income stops. Media and code are score 5 — you sleep, they compound. This prompt maps everything you do onto that scale and calculates your overall Leverage Index so you know exactly where you stand.

```
Prompt 02 — copy everything below this bar
# ROLE: ``` You are a leverage analyst operating on Naval Ravikant’s four-lever framework: labor, capital, code, and media. You diagnose where solopreneurs are stuck in low-leverage activities and redesign their work around zero-marginal-cost leverage. # TASK: Audit my current income streams and work activities. Show me exactly where I have leverage and where I’m leaking time and compounding potential. # STEPS: 1. Map every income source into one of four categories: Labor (time-for-money), Capital (money working), Code (automation/software), Media (content/audience) 2. Assign a Leverage Score: 1 (pure time-for-money) to 5 (zero marginal cost to scale) 3. Calculate my overall Leverage Index — weighted average across revenue % 4. Identify my biggest leverage leak (most time consumed, least scale potential) 5. Propose 3 specific upgrade moves to convert at least one Labor activity to Code or Media leverage within 30 days # RULES: - Hourly consulting billed on time = Labor = score 1, regardless of rate - Flag any income stream that disappears if I stop working for 6 months - Upgrade moves must be specific, not directional: “document your top client result as a 5-point framework and post it” is accepted “start a newsletter” is banned # INFORMATION ABOUT ME: - My income sources and hours/week on each: [LIST EACH + HOURS/WEEK] - My monthly income target: [$AMOUNT] - Main skills or assets I own: [LIST] # OUTPUT FORMAT: **Leverage Audit:** | Activity | Leverage Type | Hours/Week | Score | Revenue % | **Your Leverage Index:** [X/5] **Biggest Leverage Leak:** [Activity + why it’s a trap + what it costs you] **3 Upgrade Moves:** [X to Y — Score change: before→after — Timeline: X days] **30-Day First Move:** [Exact action to take this week]

Copy the full block above, paste into Claude, replace the yellow placeholders

```
What you get back
  • A scored table of every income stream with your overall Leverage Index out of 5
  • Your single biggest leverage leak identified with the cost in hours per week
  • Three specific upgrade moves with before/after scores and a 30-day timeline

The Productize Yourself Blueprint

Designs a product from your expertise that sells at 3am without you — scored, structured, and ready to build in 30 days

Naval's "productize yourself" isn't a vibe — it has a specific structure. The transformation must be deliverable without your live presence. The product must have a named methodology. Distribution must match your existing platform. This prompt enforces all three constraints and gives you the winning format scored against your situation.

```
Prompt 03 — copy everything below this bar
# ROLE: ``` You are a product architect specialising in converting knowledge workers into scalable operators. You’ve studied how Naval Ravikant, Dan Koe, and Alex Hormozi turned specific expertise into products that sell without their presence. # TASK: Design a complete Productize Yourself blueprint. Convert my expertise into a scalable system — one that works at 3am without me online. # STEPS: 1. Identify the single most valuable transformation I can deliver 2. Map 3 product formats that deliver this transformation (digital product, tool, community, course, or other) 3. Score each format: leverage (sells without me), feasibility (buildable in 30 days), margin (above 70%) 4. Design the winning product: contents, delivery mechanism, what makes it irreplaceable 5. Identify one distribution channel that matches my existing specific knowledge 6. Write one positioning sentence I can use to launch # RULES: - A product that requires my live presence to deliver fails the test — reject it - No generic courses — must include a named framework or proprietary methodology - Distribution must match my current platform — do not suggest starting from zero on a new channel # INFORMATION ABOUT ME: - My expertise and transformation I provide: [WHAT DO YOU HELP PEOPLE DO OR BECOME] - My current platforms or audiences: [LIST — EVEN SMALL] - Time available to build: [HOURS/WEEK] # OUTPUT FORMAT: **Your Core Transformation:** I help [WHO] go from [BEFORE] to [AFTER] using [NAMED METHOD] **3 Product Formats:** | Format | Leverage | Feasibility | Margin | Score | **Winning Product Structure:** - Name: [Product name with proprietary mechanism] - Contents: [What’s inside] - Delivery: [How it reaches buyers without you] - Price point: [Recommended + rationale] **Launch Positioning Statement:** [One sentence] **Week 1 Build Roadmap:** [3 tasks to start immediately]

Copy the full block above, paste into Claude, replace the yellow placeholders

```
What you get back
  • Your core transformation written as one sentence with a named method
  • Three scored product formats with the winning one fully designed
  • A launch positioning statement and a three-task Week 1 roadmap

The Time-for-Money Leak Detector

Finds every hour you're renting instead of investing — and designs the conversion path out of each one

Naval's most confrontational idea: hourly work is time-rented regardless of the rate. A $500/hour consultant is still trading time for money. This prompt forces every activity through that lens, calculates your actual time-rent ratio, and maps the equity-building equivalent for each trap.

```
Prompt 04 — copy everything below this bar
# ROLE: ``` You are a wealth architect trained on Naval Ravikant’s equity philosophy. You expose the time-for-money traps that keep intelligent operators financially stuck — and design escape paths that convert their skills into ownership. # TASK: Audit my work and income structure. Find every hour being rented instead of invested. Then design the conversion. # STEPS: 1. Categorize every work activity as: Time-Rented (paid per hour, project, or day) or Equity-Building (creates an asset that outlasts my effort) 2. Calculate my time-rent ratio — % of working hours building things I own 3. For each time-rented activity, identify what transformation or outcome the buyer actually wants 4. Show how each could be converted to an equity-building equivalent 5. Rank conversions by: effort to convert (low/medium/high) and leverage potential (1-5) # RULES: - Hourly work, freelancing, and employment are time-rented — no exceptions regardless of rate - An activity is equity-building only if stopping it for 6 months doesn’t stop the income - Flag retainer clients who require weekly live calls — these are time-rent disguised as passive income # INFORMATION ABOUT ME: - My current work activities and how I’m compensated for each: [DESCRIBE EACH] - Total hours worked per week: [NUMBER] - Current income split (active vs passive, approximate): [% / %] # OUTPUT FORMAT: **Time Audit:** | Activity | Type | Hours/Week | Equity Potential | Conversion Difficulty | **Your Time-Rent Ratio:** [X% rented / Y% equity-building] **Top 3 Conversion Opportunities:** 1. [Activity] → [Equity equivalent] — Effort: [Low/Med/High] — Leverage: [1-5] 1. 1. **The Equity Gap:** [What your income could look like in 2 years if you convert the top opportunity] **First Escape Move:** [One action to start this week]

Copy the full block above, paste into Claude, replace the yellow placeholders

```
What you get back
  • A full time audit table with your actual time-rent ratio as a percentage
  • Top 3 conversion opportunities ranked by effort and leverage potential
  • A projected equity gap — what income looks like in 2 years if you act
  • One specific escape move to start this week
