Agentic Growth Accelerator
Full Curriculum
Build 4 agents, and learn how to build any agent for any problem.
24 February – 21 March 2026
Works with your existing AI setup
Strategy Coach
Claude Projects, Custom GPTs, or Gemini Gems + Deep Research
You'll leave with a personalised AI advisor that knows your background, your Q1 goals, and the patterns that hold you back. Not a chatbot that forgets who you are every session.
What you'll build
- An AI project loaded with your background research, goals, and working context
- Custom system instructions generated through a guided 7-question framework
- A daily workflow where the coach helps you prioritise, make decisions, and stay accountable
What you'll learn
- How AI projects work: the three layers (instructions, knowledge, and conversation) that make any agent useful
- Using Deep Research to build comprehensive knowledge bases your agent can draw on
- Why context beats prompting — and the document structures that make agents actually remember what matters
- Designing constraints and guardrails so your agent challenges you instead of just agreeing
What you won't get anywhere else
I'm sharing two highly refined mega-prompts I've developed over months of daily use: an Interview Prompt that interrogates your communication style, decision-making patterns, and blind spots to generate deeply personalised system instructions. And a Personal OKR Prompt that helps you get crystal clarity on your goals, priorities, and what you're actually optimising for. These aren't generic templates. People I've delivered these to have described the experience as “life-changing”.
Friday: Security & Working with Agents Safely
Before you wire AI into your CRM and calendar, you need to know the risks. We cover how to vet MCP servers (official vs DIY), prompt injection attacks and how to defend against them, permission scoping (what your agent should and shouldn't access), and a decision framework for different risk levels. You'll leave knowing exactly which connections are safe to make in Week 2.
GTM (Pipeline) Agent
MCP Servers (Attio, Todoist, Calendar) & native integrations
Your AI goes from smart-but-blind to wired into your actual tools. We use a GTM pipeline as the example, but the techniques apply to any workflow: connecting your CRM, task manager, calendar, or any platform so your agent can read, act, and automate across them.
What you'll build
- A pipeline review workflow: stale deals, next actions, priority calls
- Automated call prep with deep research pulled into your CRM
- Post-meeting follow-ups: deal stage updates, task creation with full context
- A morning check-in that cross-references your goals, pipeline, and task list
What you'll learn
- MCP (Model Context Protocol): the standard for connecting AI to any live platform — CRM, tasks, calendar, databases, and more
- The safe-first-test pattern for tool integrations: read before you write, verify before you edit — applies to every tool you'll ever connect
- Chaining tools together: how to make platforms that don't integrate directly work together through your agent
- Permission scoping and security boundaries: controlling what your agent can see, do, and modify across any connected system
What you won't get anywhere else
Until a few months ago, this kind of system would have taken weeks of custom development. Now you can build it in a single session. I've been running this setup daily since late 2025 across consulting, coaching, and sales, and you'll see live demos of the real workflows I use every day: pipeline reviews, call prep with automatic research, post-meeting follow-ups that update your CRM and create tasks in one go. An MCP security specialist also joins to cover the risks most tutorials skip entirely.
Friday: Prompt Engineering & Meta-Prompting
Most people write prompts by trial and error. This session teaches you to be systematic. We cover three meta-prompting patterns (having AI critique and improve its own instructions), how to diagnose bad outputs and fix them at the root cause, and refining your system instructions so your agents get sharper over time instead of staying static.
Product Agent
Claude Projects, Custom GPTs, or Gemini Gems + Deep Research
Build an agent that ingests survey data, competitor research, and user feedback, then drafts specs so specific that your designer, developer, or AI coding agent can build from them without asking clarifying questions.
What you'll build
- A product strategist agent loaded with your market data, survey responses, and competitor research
- A one-shot spec: detailed enough for anyone (human or AI) to build from
- Landing page copy generated from real user quotes and survey data
What you'll learn
- The AI-accelerated validation loop: a repeatable framework for going from idea → survey → research → spec → prototype
- Synthesising messy, unstructured data (survey responses, research, feedback) into clear themes and priorities
- The one-shot spec format: writing briefs so clear that anyone — a developer, designer, agency, or AI coding agent — can build from them without clarifying questions
- The same process works for software, physical products, and services — you learn a method, not a template
What you won't get anywhere else
This isn't a generic product management workshop. I'm bringing 12 years of shipping products across early-stage startups and scale-ups, compressed into an AI-native framework. You'll learn the exact validation loop I used to go from Roadmap Brainstorm → Survey → Prototype → User Feedback → Undeniable Product-Market Fit validation in just 4 working days, and the one-shot spec format I've refined through dozens of iterations so that AI agents (or your dev team) can build from it without a single clarifying question. The method works whether you're validating software, a physical product, or a new service.
Friday: Proactive Agents & Scheduled Workflows
Your agents so far wait for you to start a conversation. This session makes them proactive. You'll build a scheduled workflow (Zapier, Make, or n8n) that pulls from your CRM, calendar, and task list every Monday morning and sends you a personalised briefing. By the end, your agent works for you even when you're not talking to it.
Developer Agent
Claude Code, Lovable, Replit, or Cowork
Hand your spec from Week 3 to an AI coding agent and watch it build. You'll deploy a working prototype to a live URL in 90 minutes. No coding required. Software companies get a working product. Physical product companies get a validation page to measure demand.
What you'll build
- A live, deployed prototype or validation page built from your Week 3 spec
- Experience with at least one AI coding tool (Claude Code, Lovable, Replit, or Cowork)
- Something you can share with users, investors, or stakeholders the same day
What you'll learn
- How AI coding agents work and when to use each: Claude Code for custom builds, Lovable for landing pages, Replit for quick prototypes
- Translating any brief into an effective prompt for a coding agent — the skill that turns Week 3's spec-writing into a superpower
- Managing an autonomous agent: when to interrupt, when to let it run, and how to course-correct without starting over
- Going from idea to live, shareable URL — the full deployment loop you'll reuse for every future prototype
What you won't get anywhere else
I've logged 100+ hours with AI coding agents over the past few months,building prototypes, internal tools, landing pages, and full applications. You're getting the distilled lessons from all of that: which tools to use when, the prompting patterns that actually work, the mistakes that waste hours, and the shortcuts that save them. This isn't a tutorial you could follow on YouTube. It's guided, hands-on building with someone who's done it enough to know where things break.
Friday: Showcase & Open Office Hours
The finale. Participants demo what they built to the cohort, we review completion stats, and run an open Q&A covering what to build next, how to keep iterating, and where to take your agents from here. You'll leave with a clear picture of what's possible beyond the cohort.
