🔥 HOW TO SPEAK SOFTWARE INTO EXISTENCE — AND OUTPACE TEAMS TEN TIMES YOUR SIZE
THE FACTS YOU CAN’T IGNORE
• In 2024 it took twelve developer-hours to ship an average feature. AI-augmented teams now do it in two.
• Harvard Business Review (Feb 2025) calls AI-first velocity “the new MOAT.”
• Venture money is chasing solo builders who move faster than whole departments.
If you still rely on a backlog, a sprint board, and four espresso shots, you’re jogging while others ride e-bikes.
THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
1. Endless “almost-works” prompts that collapse on edge-cases
2. Code with no tests, no version control, and licence landmines
3. A shiny new “must-have” tool on Twitter every Tuesday—and no honest way to judge the trade-offs
Left unchecked, those gaps cost you launches, credibility, and sleep.
THE REMEDY
AI-Augmented Software Creation turns chaos into a repeatable system.
Give us four Tuesdays and we’ll teach you to dictate an idea, harden it with safety nets, and push it live while your coffee is still hot. 🚀
WHO THIS IS FOR
• Non-technical founders & operators who need to ship without hiring a dev shop
• Software engineers who want a 10 × workflow, not a replacement
• Product & tech leaders who must choose safe, cost-effective tools for their teams
If you can write a clear Slack message, you meet the only prerequisite. ✅
WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM DIFFERENT
• English-as-Code — instructors talk code into existence, dissecting every prompt and diff.
• Safety Nets Baked-In — labs auto-generate integration tests, set up CI, and finish with an AI-powered debug drill.
• Tool Agnostic, Never Tool Fragile — speed-date Cursor, Replit Agent, Gemini, LangChain, Copilot, and any newcomer that appears mid-cohort. Graduate with a decision matrix, not vendor lock-in.
• Lean Pricing, Heavy Value — four live workshops, four guided labs, private Slack, lifetime recordings — all for $995 (see early-bird below).
CURRICULUM AT A GLANCE
Week 1 — Foundational prompting and the anatomy of “vibe coding”
Week 2 — Cursor vs Copilot vs Replit Agent; write the decision memo
Week 3 — Safety nets: licence checks, privacy guards, cost dashboards
Week 4 — Capstone: speak a feature, ship it live, present the metrics
LIVE EXPERT SESSIONS — STRAIGHT FROM THE SOURCE
(Vendors locked; speaker names and demo titles announced in Slack as confirmed.)
Cursor – TBA
Google Gemini – TBA
Replit – TBA
Windsurf – TBA
OpenAI – TBA
Lovable – TBA

Ask the architects, not just the marketers; copy their playbooks before your competitors do.
BY THE END OF WEEK 4 YOU WILL
• Draft a prompt → ship a working feature in under 60 minutes
• Benchmark two AI IDEs and defend your tooling choice to any CTO
• Launch a micro-app with CI, integration tests, error tracking, and cost reports
• Spot licence, privacy, and prompt-security hazards before Legal taps your shoulder
THE EXPERIENCE
• Reserve your seat — cohorts capped at 40 for hands-on feedback.
• Attend four 90-minute, demo-driven classes.
• Complete four structured labs; publish two capstone projects.
• Stay connected in private Slack for critiques, tool drops, lifetime community. ⚡

Prompt → Prototype in under an hour
Speak a BACK/SPEC prompt, watch Cursor or Replit Agent scaffold a working app, and iterate live until it runs—no deep coding background required.
Built‑in Code Quality & Guard‑rails
Apply the 3‑Rule Framework—smart tool choice, auto‑generated tests in version control, and prompt‑level guard‑rails—so AI output stays review‑ready and future‑proof.
Clean Refactors, Not Spaghetti
Turn first‑draft blobs into readable, modular components with Cursor’s multi‑file chat, background agents, and diff review—all while the tests stay green.
Deploy & Monitor Like a Pro
One‑click push to Replit or Vercel with secrets, CI, scheduled redeploys, error tracking, and token‑usage dashboards—your demo link “just works.”
Quantify and Sell the ROI
Leave with a time‑and‑cost delta calculator and a 5‑slide deck template that prove exactly how AI‑augmented workflows cut budgets and accelerate delivery.
Live sessions
Learn directly from Akshika Wijesundara, PhD in a real-time, interactive format.
