Testimonials
For people who code. And people who don’t.
Complete beginners, experienced engineers, founders, operators—the class is designed to be useful across a wide range of backgrounds.
Who’s in the room
Different backgrounds.
Plenty to learn from each other.
Researchers, consultants, operators, founders, and engineers. Some arrive with working agents; others have never built software. Everyone brings problems, ideas, and a different way of seeing what’s possible.
Six Saturdays together
Class runs 10am-1pm, with office hours and coworking 1-5pm.
It keeps going after class
Fractal Campus access is 24/7 during the program and for three months afterward. Keep building alongside the community, and come back for events and demos.
Apply what you’ve learned at work
Each week expect to spend about 15 hours applying AI to your existing work.

Turn a real need into clear requirements and a workable project.
Debug, test, and ship
Investigate failures, check the results, and publish something useful.
Build workflows that go further
Break larger tasks into steps and use agents to carry them out.
Keep improving

Frequently asked questions
Will this work for me? I'm not technical.
You don't need to be. We meet you where you are, and the curriculum is designed for professionals who've never written code.
I don't have 15 hours a week.
The 15 hours aren't homework on top of your life. You're applying AI to your existing work - building tools and automations that make your real job faster. Practice time replaces busywork, not free time.
What exactly is the weekly schedule?
Saturdays run 10am-5pm: class from 10am-1pm, then optional office hours and coworking from 1-5pm. You also get free 24/7 co-working access at Fractal Campus during the program and for three months afterward.
How is this different from just using ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is just the surface of what AI can do. This program drops you below the consumer layer to the raw tools - agents, automation, code generation, & compound systems. It’s like the difference between playing a racing game and building your own race car.
What if I fall behind?
Office hours, coworking blocks, and self-paced applied practice are all built in. The program is designed for working professionals with busy schedules.
