Built for people already in the job

Sessions are evening-friendly and every exercise maps to something I could take back to my team on Monday. I automated two of my weekly deliverables with Next-gen LLM APIs before the course even ended.

Placement support is not an afterthought

Resume rewrite, two mock interviews and a referral into a company hiring for Technical Co-founder roles. They kept following up after the cohort ended, which I did not expect.

The cohort makes the difference

Daily standups with people from the same field meant I never got stuck alone. Two of us are still pairing on side projects months after the AI for Startup Founders cohort ended.

Great value for what you get

Compared to what I paid for a previous bootcamp, the AI for Startup Founders programme delivered more contact hours and far better mentors. I would have liked one more live session on scaling, but the community filled the gap.

Finally a AI for Startup Founders course that ships work

I came in able to talk about AI but not build with it. By week three I had the AI MVP launch running end to end and could explain every decision in it. That single project got me shortlisted twice.

Intense, but the pace is honest

Be ready to put in real hours — the assignments are graded and you get sent back if the Investor data room does not work. I lost a weekend to it and learned more than a year of videos. Only wish the recordings were indexed better.
