Group learning session with laptops

From AI-curious to your own project live in 4 weeks

A live AI cohort where you learn by doing. No theory dumps — you install the tools, build the systems, and leave with skills that keep growing.

On request

Next cohort expected: Q2 2026

Sound familiar?

  • You spend your evenings maintaining your website instead of doing the work you actually want to do
  • You know you should be using AI, but every tutorial assumes you can already code
  • You've tried ChatGPT for writing, but you never managed to actually build or automate anything
  • You have ideas for tools and projects, but the technical barrier keeps getting in the way

This cohort bridges that gap — from curious to capable.

Who this is for

  • You want to integrate AI into your daily work processes but don't know where to start
  • You're an entrepreneur or freelancer who wants to build with agentic tools
  • You're a consultant who wants to offer AI services to clients
  • You're simply curious about learning to build with AI — no coding experience required

What you'll learn

A structured 4-week journey: from installation to a live project.

Week 1

Install & first steps

Install Claude Code (and/or Codex), run your first commands, and get comfortable with AI-assisted workflows. By the end of the week your tools are ready and you've built your first something.

Week 2

How AI thinks and where it fits

What agents are, which patterns exist, and when to use AI — and when not to. Simple infrastructure concepts — servers, databases, frontend, backend — so you understand what you're building on. The mindset shift that makes everything click.

Week 3

Build your project

Build something real with AI assistance — a website, a tool, an automation. No theory, no demo. Your project, your idea, taken live with the tools from week 1 and the thinking framework from week 2.

Week 4

Deploy & share

Take your project live and accessible. Share it with the cohort, receive feedback, and discover what's possible next — including agentic systems in future cohorts.

This is what you'll be able to do

By the end of week 4 you'll be deploying projects like this.

What you'll have at the end

Tangible results — not just knowledge.

  • A real project you built and deployed yourself — with AI
  • Practical skills to keep building independently after the cohort
  • An understanding of how software infrastructure works (servers, databases, frontend/backend)
  • A network of like-minded peers on the same AI journey
  • The confidence to evaluate and adopt new AI tools on your own
  • A clear path toward the advanced Agentic Systems cohort

Tom Mekenkamp

15+ years in leadership and transformation at AB-InBev, Royal BAM, and Dura Vermeer. Now I build products with agentic AI and teach others to do the same. Every tool and technique in this cohort is something I use in production — no theory.
