Founder of Cocoon and co-founder of Buildin Blocks — driving growth and AI adoption across the region.
This is not a course you watch. Every session ends with something you built. Every day ends with a capstone you can show. You leave with 16 live projects, a personal AI stack, and a 90-day roadmap ready to execute from Monday morning.
Accelerate what takes too long. Augment what you are already excellent at. Automate what should never have needed a human.
Sixteen working systems built from your actual job — running before the programme ends, and yours to keep compounding afterwards.
of AI tools purchased by organisations are underused or abandoned within 90 days — not because of the technology, but because people were never shown how to think with it.
average productivity uplift for professionals who build a personal AI stack and integrate it into their daily workflow — versus those who use AI ad hoc.
live capstone projects you leave with — one built every single day. Not slides, not theory. Working tools, automations, and applications you will actually use.
The Promise
Most AI training shows you a list of tools. We do something different. We shift the way you think — so when the next tool drops, you already know how to evaluate it, adopt it, and stay ahead entirely on your own.
We teach you to audit, test, and adopt — not just install. Most professionals collect tools. Our graduates use them. The difference is a mental model for evaluating fit, not just following a list.
You leave with a stack built around your role, your habits, and your goals. Week 4 goes deep into your specific function — Finance, HR, Sales & Marketing, Operations, or Tech. The generic stuff ends in Week 3.
AI moves fast. The professionals who thrive are not the ones who take the most courses — they are the ones who can evaluate new tools themselves. That mental model is what you leave with here.
Who This Is For
Passive AI curiosity to active AI capability. No technical background required — only a willingness to build something every single day.
Programme Outcomes
Participants who complete the full cohort leave with six distinct, deployable outcomes — not certificates of attendance, but real capability shifts.
Use AI across text, voice, image, and code — without needing a technical team. You operate independently across all modalities.
Claude Code, Obsidian, Wispr Flow, Motion — plus access to Cocoon's curated library of 1,000+ tools across 40 categories, fully configured for your workflow.
Not just tool knowledge — the mental model to evaluate, adopt, and stay ahead as AI keeps evolving. Independent of any programme, indefinitely.
One completed, deployable capstone project every single day of the programme. Sixteen working tools, automations, and applications you built yourself.
Deep capability in the tools and workflows most relevant to your function. Week 4 goes entirely domain-specific — HR, Finance, Sales & Marketing, Operations, or Tech.
A personal implementation plan, peer-reviewed and ready to execute from Monday morning. Quick wins, habit formation, and a 90-day scaling plan structured and specific to your role.
The Transformation
This isn't faster typing. It's a different operating capacity. Here's what changes for our graduates — measured, not promised.
Not "someone who took an AI course." A professional the market is actively hiring for.
Handle 5× the volume without adding headcount. Reporting, routing, and ops run themselves while you focus on decisions.
Take an idea to a working prototype in a fraction of the time — validate, build, and ship without waiting on a dev team.
Run a full brand & content engine solo — radically more output, brand quality held, at a fraction of a full team's cost.
The Core Stack
Every participant sets up an anchor stack from Day 1 — the operating system that runs beneath everything else in the programme, and long after it ends. The four below are just one example; you'll build your own from our directory of 1,000+ tools, configured to your role and workflow.
Write, debug, and deploy code without a developer background. Build automations, applications, and scripts through conversation. Your technical ceiling just disappeared.
Your personal knowledge base. Every prompt, workflow, and capstone is documented and searchable. Linked to your AI context so nothing you learn is ever lost.
Capture ideas, notes, and prompts hands-free, anywhere. Turns your voice into structured text across every application you use. Thinking out loud becomes an output.
AI-powered calendar and task management. Your schedule plans itself around your priorities. Stop managing your calendar. Let it manage you.
This is just an example stack. Explore the full library and build the one that fits you.
Build Your Own Stack — Browse 1,000+ Tools →Curriculum
Every module is built around a daily capstone — something you make, deploy, and own. Browse each week below.
Week 1 establishes the two things that determine whether AI adoption works: the right mindset, and a mapped understanding of your current workflows. Only then do we introduce tools — starting with the four that anchor your professional AI practice.
Write your personal AI adoption manifesto — one page, your commitments, your barriers, and what success looks like in 3 months.
Complete workflow map with AI readiness scores for your top 10 weekly tasks.
Build a personal prompt library of 10 reusable prompts for your role.
Set up your full personal AI operating system — live, configured, and running by end of session.
Week 2 expands beyond text — into voice, image, and video as AI inputs and outputs. Participants build custom assistants grounded in their own data, deploy first automations, and produce a full creative campaign using generative AI.
Record a 5-minute voice memo, transcribe it, and convert to a structured 2-page professional brief using AI alone.
Build a custom AI assistant trained on your company context and role documentation — live and queryable.
Build a working automation that saves you at least 30 minutes per week — live, tested, and running.
Produce a complete 60-second AI-generated video advertisement — script, voiceover, visuals, and music.
Week 3 is where participants become builders. They deploy AI agents that work autonomously, publish live web applications, navigate the ethics of AI at work, and leave with a peer-reviewed 90-day implementation plan.
Design and deploy a working agent that handles one recurring workflow end-to-end without manual input.
Publish a live AI-powered web application solving a real problem in your domain — accessible via a public URL.
Draft a practical AI usage policy for your organisation or team — ready to share with leadership.
Present your 90-day AI roadmap — structured, peer-reviewed, and ready to execute from Monday morning.
Week 4 splits into domain-specific tracks. Participants join the track most relevant to their function and spend four focused days applying everything they have built to real problems in their industry. Each day goes deeper, with a live final capstone on Day 4.
Complete a domain workflow redesign using at least two track-specific tools — documented and presented to peers.
Deploy a domain-specific AI assistant that can handle a real colleague query — live demonstration to your track group.
Build and run a live automation that produces a real output your team would use — no manual steps required.
Present your domain-specific AI solution to the full cohort — a working product solving a real problem in your field.
Domain Tracks
Participants select one domain track on Week 4 Day 1 and stay with it for all four days — building tools and workflows that solve real problems specific to their function.
HR professionals, people operations teams, and talent leaders
Finance teams, accountants, analysts, and CFOs
Marketers, brand managers, content teams, and growth leads
Operations managers, supply chain teams, and process owners
Software developers, data teams, IT professionals, and technical leads
4-Week Domain Specializations
Beyond the core cohort, each domain gets its own dedicated 4-week specialization — researched against how the best teams actually work in 2026, with the real tools your role uses. Claude Code anchors every track as your universal AI workhorse; the rest of the stack is role-specific. Pick yours and see the full breakdown.
For HR managers, people-ops, and talent & L&D leaders. Every part of the people function, rebuilt around AI.
Deploy one live HR workflow — AI-assisted screening or an onboarding agent — with a documented prompt set, a bias-audit plan, and a one-page governance policy.
For FP&A analysts, accountants, controllers, and CFOs who own reporting, close, and forecasting.
Build a governed AI workflow that drafts a monthly variance & MIS pack from ERP data — with an audit trail and human sign-off — cutting close time by 2–3 days.
For marketers, brand & content teams, growth leads, and SDRs who own pipeline and demand.
Ship a live AI-built campaign — GEO-optimised content, an AI video ad, and an enriched, agent-run outbound sequence wired to your CRM — with AI disclosure and a pre-publish QC checkpoint.
For ops managers, supply-chain teams, process owners, and COOs running real operational workflows.
Ship one production agentic ops workflow with human-in-the-loop approvals, a monitoring dashboard, and documented ROI on your highest-cost process.
For developers, data engineers, IT, and technical leads adopting agentic coding in real production codebases.
Ship one production feature built with subagents — complete with evals, guardrails, and an observability dashboard — plus a 90-day plan to roll agentic workflows across your team.
Every trainer in this cohort is an operator who uses AI to ship real work daily — founders, engineers, marketers, and transformation leaders from across the region. You won't get theory from academics. You'll get what actually works, from people doing it right now.
