FAQ
- Do I need coding or AI experience to join? Not at all. If you’re comfortable with APIs or no-code tools, you’re good to go. Guidance on LLMs, RAG, Tool Calling, and Agentic design patterns is provided, and Canvas handles the heavy lifting.
- What happens after the sprint—am I on my own? Graduates keep lifetime access to recordings, templates, and a private Slack community. Monthly “Office Hours” calls are hosted for alumni to troubleshoot, share wins, and get fresh playbooks.
- My use-case is pretty gnarly—what if I can’t finish in 14 days? The sprint guarantees a functional V1. For edge-case features needing more time, mentors map a post-cohort roadmap and pair participants with accountability partners.
