In six weeks you ship one working internal tool for your company. Not a certificate. A tool that runs, that you built, that you can maintain after the program ends.
Every Friday you rebuild the same spreadsheet. The report your VP asks for takes most of a day to assemble by hand. And five questions keep landing in your DMs because the answer lives in a doc nobody can find. You've described the fix to engineering twice. It never got prioritized.
"I know exactly what my team needs automated. I just can't build it."
"Our workflow is too specific for any off-the-shelf tool."
"I don't want to manage a consultant. I want to own the tool myself."
"Engineering agreed it was a good idea. It's been in the backlog a year."
"We pay forty thousand a year for software we use about 20% of."
"I want a skill that pays off at work, and maybe on the side too."
What's missing isn't an engineer. It's you, with the ability to build. You understand how the business actually works. That's the harder half.
One place to see every client's status, owner, and next step. No more Friday copy-paste across three tabs.
Pulls from three systems, formats itself, lands in the inbox Monday morning. Built once, runs every week.
Build and edit your own pages in an afternoon. No ticket, no developer queue, no waiting to change a headline.
One form and one queue for requests arriving by Slack, email, and hallway. Everything triaged, nothing dropped.
Every account, its renewal date, and the signals that actually predict churn, in one view instead of four tabs and a hunch.
Fill five fields, get a formatted proposal. No more duplicating last quarter's deck and hoping you caught every number.
What Claude Code actually is, what GitHub and Vercel do, and how the pieces fit together. Then you build and deploy a simple one-page personal site before the session ends.
→ DELIVERABLE: A one-page personal site, live on the internet, that you built yourself.
Homepage, about, contact, and a blog, all deployed together. Then you connect a Claude agent that publishes a new post every week — your first AI agent, running without you.
→ DELIVERABLE: A live multi-page site with an active blog and an agent writing new posts weekly.
The whole cohort builds the same project management tool: logins, user roles, and a drag-and-drop board. It’s the skeleton underneath most internal tools, and you keep the code.
→ DELIVERABLE: A working Kanban app with real authentication, running and deployed.
Decide what you’re building for your company, set up a Claude project to hold your context and prompts, and turn it into a PRD and milestone plan Claude Code can execute.
→ DELIVERABLE: A PRD, a milestone plan, and milestone one already running.
You’ll book your private 1:1 Scope Session after Week 1 and take it between Weeks 3 and 4, so you walk in with your problem already chosen and pressure-tested.
Hands on keyboard with support. Real data, real edge cases, and the things that break for everyone the first time.
→ DELIVERABLE: A V1 you can put in front of a colleague.
Show what you built to the cohort. Then documentation, a maintenance plan, and the workflow for shipping your next feature without me.
→ DELIVERABLE: A working tool at your company, and the ability to keep improving it.
Flipped classroom. Short recorded modules before each session, so live time is spent building, never lecturing.
You know the tool your team needs. Nobody's building it.
You live in spreadsheets. You've never written code.
You can protect five hours a week for six weeks.
You want to own the tool, not hand it off.
You're an engineer who already ships software. You'd be bored.
You want a passive video course to watch on your own schedule.
Your company prohibits AI tools. Sort that out first.
You want a certificate more than a working tool.
Show up, do the work, and by demo day either a working tool you built is running at your company, or we keep working together until it is. Full refund through the end of Week 2.

Filling up after Cohort 1.
Most companies approve this the same way they approve a conference: one email. Here's the one to send.

Took two coding bootcamps as a student, so I know exactly what learning this from zero feels like.
Taught an iOS development bootcamp at City Colleges of Chicago, where my class outperformed every other cohort.
Spent the past several months building a complete SaaS platform end to end with Claude Code: payments, email, forms, client portal, coach portal, now shipping as a Mac desktop app.
A decade-plus in B2B SaaS across product, ops, customer success, and solutions engineering.
My job isn't to turn you into a developer. It's to make you the person on your team who ships.
Six live build sessions and the recorded modules
Two private 1:1s: Scope Session and Unblock Session
Weekly office hours through the whole program
Lifetime access to the Builders' Guild community
The Starter Kit from a real production build
The Shipped Tool Guarantee
The alternatives: a $12k-a-year subscription that almost fits, or a $15k consultant build that rots. This is $999, and you keep the builder.
Founding builders trade honest feedback and permission to share their build as a case study.
The price goes up with every cohort — $1,499 next, then $1,999.
One 2-hour live session a week, plus two to four hours of your own build time. Office hours and the 1:1s are there when you want them.
No. The program assumes you've never opened a terminal. If you're comfortable in spreadsheets and Notion, you have enough.
You get a short call to confirm fit and talk through the problem you'd build. If it's a match, you take one of the 5 seats.
A laptop and a Claude subscription, purchased separately from Anthropic. Everything else is covered in the Starter Kit.
Get that cleared before you apply. Some teams can build on non-production data or a personal machine, but that's a conversation to have internally first.
Every session is recorded and yours for life. Office hours are the place to catch up on anything you missed live.
That's what the Scope Session is for. Most people arrive with three ideas and leave with one worth building.
Built by you. Understood by you. Maintained by you.
Not this one? Leave an email and I'll tell you when the next cohort opens.
