Live Sessions.

Practical AI, built live every Thursday.

Every Thursday you get two things. At noon, a pre-recorded work session you can start using right away — in about ten-minute pieces. At 7pm, we go live and build it together on your own real work. You stay in control; AI is the copilot.

Free · noon ET pre-recorded · 7pm ET live.

Live sessions are free. Library members get every replay plus the working files.

Next up: Flash Mission: Project Status Report in 5 Minutes · Thursday, September 17 · noon ET pre-recorded · 7pm ET live.

What to expect

A working AI tool, every week — done in under an hour.

One tool, built live.

No slides — a working thing in under an hour.

Real jobs, not demos.

The same tool put to work on the kinds of tasks you actually have.

You stay in control.

The tool does the busywork. A person always makes the call.

We close every session by asking you what to build next.

Coming Up

What we’re building next.

Clone Yourself — four free weeks to build a working AI version of you: your brain, your voice, your fence, your reach. A person always makes the final call.

Register free for any upcoming session. Past sessions are tucked away below — recordings live in the Library.

Built to follow your rules

A person always makes the call.

You always stay in control — a person makes the final call, every session. These are educational sessions; the tools we build together are starting points, not advice for your exact situation.

Join us live, free, this Thursday.

One tool, built live. Real work, done together. A room of people finding their lane.
