A one-month intensive that takes you from AI-curious to running your own agent stack. Real work shipping from week one.
Apply →We're at an inflection point. A small team of high-agency operators — with the right tools, the right systems, and the right agents — will out-operate a traditional team an order of magnitude bigger. You can already see it: the founders pulling away from the pack are the ones who treat their AI stack as infrastructure, not novelty.
The gap between experimenting and operating is wider than most people realise. Plenty of founders have ChatGPT and Claude open in a browser tab. Almost none have a working knowledge system, persistent agents, and a stack that actually knows their business and can easily evolve with new AI tech capabilities entering the market. That's the gap this cohort closes.
The curriculum mirrors the path every operator has to navigate to build a foundational knowledge base. Skipping stages doesn't work. Stacking them does.
From setup to autonomous operation.
Claude and ChatGPT configured properly — not just chat windows. Full project structure, AI connectors (MCPs) and skills installed, conversation memory in place. Your file system organised for AI collaboration. You leave week one with real tooling and the beginnings of a daily AI process and practice.
Your second brain in Obsidian. Daily notes. Personal context organised, retrievable, agent-readable. Claude Code — your AI coding assistant — introduced and operating against your Obsidian vault. You start working with persistent memory and a knowledge base that compounds.
The specific workflows in your business automated. Where the tools start turning into operational leverage. We identify your highest-cost repetitive work and build it out. We also define operational structure for specific agents — your Chief of Staff, or Inbox Bot.
Local and cloud agents. A personal Chief of Staff agent that knows you, your context, your priorities. By the end of the month your stack runs independently — with an open line to my cloud agent setup for ongoing skill drops if you choose to stay connected.
Most cohorts ask you to learn for a month before you see returns. Week one you will get one cloud agent that will assist with set up, course materials and back channel any feedback for support directly to me. This will be the first test and taste of what you'll build for yourself.
The cloud agent carrying the load from day one is mine — it gets you operating fast while your own stack comes together. That stack is the part you keep. The agent stays available after the month through the portal, along with the new skills I build and share with my network.
My stack does the heavy lifting in week one while you learn to build your own — you get a real cloud agent on real work straight away. As your own stack matures across the four weeks, it takes on more of the load, and my cloud agent stays connected to support you. You leave with working agents handling real tasks — you will have AI agency!
Built so each week's work compounds and you've got support exactly when you need it.
Live. Each week opens with fresh content and actions for you to take on the portal. Midweek we meet to check-in, cover questions and share learnings around the setup. Highlights, key points and follow up research will be shared in the portal.
Modules drop as we move through the month. Your individual progress, your agent status, the cohort thread — all in one place.
Two one-on-one sessions per member during the month, week one and three to discuss and define bespoke personal solutions.
Your dedicated coaching agent gets its own number and address — text it, call it, or email it, any hour. It knows the course, your progress, and your build. I'm behind it, and I see what matters.
Your personal knowledge system in Obsidian — organised, daily-noted, agent-readable.
Claude Code operating against your vault. Persistent memory in your workflows.
Operational workflows in your business automated — the ones costing you the most repetitive time.
At least one cloud agent handling a specific pain point in production or just assisting you with daily matters.
Your agent stack architected and running — local and cloud, set up to operate on its own, with an open line to my stack for ongoing skill drops if you continue.
The cohort network — the other operators in your founding group, all a month deeper into the same work.
This is for operators who move — people with real operational pain to solve and the appetite to build rather than wait. What makes the cohort work is the mix: a willingness to put in the hours, and the mindset to treat AI as leverage rather than a novelty.
Not every business fits a cohort. Some need it built with them, one-to-one, inside the operation.
AI now makes possible a fundamental reorganisation of how a business works. Processes, reporting, and repetitive work managed by intelligent systems, with your people freed up to run the business and lead. I design and engineer those solutions, and I coach the humans through the change. The work runs from whole-of-business architecture down to single sharp tools:
Same application. Choose the bespoke door, tell me the pain, and I'll come back with what I'd build.
Apply →Kicks off the first week of September — four weeks, small group, live. I run this personally and read every application. It's a short one — five minutes, and the more specific you are, the more useful our first conversation will be.
