Program
The shortest path from code to market is a product loop.
The curriculum is built around one product and the real decisions needed to launch it. Less abstract coursework, more artifacts that survive contact with users.
02System
Build with production constraints
Ship AI workflows, auth, data, demos, billing-ready surfaces, and the connective tissue that turns code into product.
AI, auth, data, demo
03Signal
Demo under real pressure
Use Demo Day to expose what works, what is confusing, and what needs to be sharpened before launch.
Public critique loop
04Launch
Launch with a complete story
Package the product, landing page, demo, pricing, and public narrative so people can use, share, and buy it.
Market-ready release
Designed for serious builders
Not another beginner course.
This is for programmers who can build, but need the rhythm, pressure, and product judgment that usually starts after the tutorial ends.
Calibrated for builders with technical base
Builder fit signal
What Cohort 01 is calibrated for.
Strong fit
- +You already understand programming fundamentals.
- +You want public deadlines, critique, and launch pressure.
- +You care about product taste, distribution, and business outcomes.
Not calibrated for
- -You need a beginner programming course.
- -You want passive videos without live work.
- -You are not ready to make and defend product decisions.
10 weeks, one launch
A compressed path from idea to Launch Day.
The sequence is simple: find the product, build the system, demo in public, and turn the signal into a launch.
1
Weeks 1-2
Find the product
Problem, audience, promise, product wedge, and technical base.
2
Weeks 3-4
Build the system
AI apps, auth, data, agents, demos, and product UI proof.
3
Week 5
Demo Day
Show what exists, collect signal, and sharpen the launch plan.
4
Weeks 6-10
Launch
Pricing, growth, polish, metrics, public story, and Launch Day.
Outcomes
Build the product and the proof around it.
The cohort should leave you with product evidence, not a folder of disconnected exercises. Every week moves the launch room forward.
Launch room
One product, six proof assets.
Public story
Make the work obvious enough for strangers to care.
