Learn to build with AI.
Ship something real.
Mentor-led programs for designers who want to ship working products — using Claude Code, Antigravity, Cursor, and whatever comes next. From a single Saturday to a 4-week deep track.

Three reasons builders actually finish.
Most AI cohorts end with a slack channel that goes silent. We end with a working tool, deployed to your URL. Here's why that happens.
Your idea, not our curriculum.
Most cohorts pick the topic and you fit your idea around it. We do the opposite. Every program — whether one Saturday or eight weeks — is shaped around the project YOU want to ship. You bring the idea. We bring the loop.

Built for makers, no code required.
15 years designing and building products. I've taught this in lecture halls, hands-on workshops, weekend bootcamps — most formats lose people somewhere. The one that consistently works: small cohort, plan written for each builder, mentor present, working tool at the end. We don't teach code — we teach the build loop, in plain words, for anyone who wants to ship something without writing a line of it.

Build things you'd actually use.
Every program ends the same way — your tool, deployed to its own URL, used in your real life from the next morning. Not a portfolio piece. Not a hackathon prototype. A real thing that solves a real problem you have. The same loop runs again on Wednesday night, on a different idea, solo. That's the actual takeaway.

★ YOUR MENTOR
Hi, I'm Pradeep.
Fifteen years building products. Now I help you build yours.
I led design at Intuit, founded Chiblu, and have shipped all sorts of things across fintech and e-commerce — apps, AI agents, internal tools, a marketplace. These days I'm mostly coaching — helping people get AI-fluent enough to ship real things. Design leaders, architects, students, PMs, founders — I've worked with all of them.
I've taught this in lecture halls, weekend bootcamps, and hands-on workshops — most formats lose people somewhere. The one that consistently works: a small group or 1:1, a plan written for you, a mentor present, and a working tool at the end. We don't teach code. We teach the build loop, in plain words.

★ FROM PAST BUILDERS
Real builders, real words.
Real people, most with no code background — who walked out with a working tool and kept building.

I came to this workshop with a clear set of goals for the day. Pradeep helped us structure our thinking, clarify our ideas, and translate them into something tangible. His approach is rooted in learning by doing—building rather than just talking about AI—and that made all the difference.
He covered the fundamentals, challenged us to think through our ideas in detail, and then guided us through the process of bringing them to life. The workshop didn't just teach tools; it exposed us to the nuances of building with AI and gave us the confidence to continue learning on our own.
What impressed me most was that participants came with very different levels of AI literacy, yet everyone was able to create a working product by the end of the day.
I would recommend this workshop to anyone, regardless of where they are in their AI journey. Whether you're just getting started or already experimenting with AI, you'll leave with a deeper understanding and something you've actually built.

Really enjoyed this workshop. The small group size (just 5 people) made it easy to ask questions and stay engaged throughout.
I came in with a feeling that I wanted to be a builder, and I'm leaving with the confidence that I can actually build. The session was easy to follow, very hands-on, and there was guidance at every step without it ever feeling overwhelming.
Lots of great learning packed into a day. Overall, a really good experience and time well spent.

Honestly, I had never explored something like this before,so this experience was completely new for me.
I genuinely enjoyed the session and would definitely love to explore and try this further as well. Thank you for guiding us making the session engaging and easy to understand.

I found the experience very valuable as it connected classroom learning with real-world design practices. We used AI tools like Claude AI and GitHub during the process to help synthesize research data, organize insights, and streamline our workflow. It helped us analyse information more efficiently while still allowing us to make the final design decisions based on our own understanding and creativity.

I had an amazing experience at Pradeep's workshop. He helped me build what I'd been wanting to work on for the past many years but somehow couldn't. Pradeep made it very simple, and I could overcome my barriers to understand and use AI, to build what I want to. I recommend everyone to give it a try and enhance your knowledge of the upcoming future. Thank you Pradeep.

Well-structured and well-conducted session!
Pradeep prepared the participants a week before the actual session with the required setup, which helped everyone dive right into creating on the day of the workshop. He patiently guided each participant with full attention, walked us through the steps, answered queries, and facilitated the process of building our respective products. Pradeep also encouraged us to experiment confidently throughout the workshop.
I can confidently say that I no longer feel intimidated by Claude. I’m looking forward to applying the learnings from the course and experimenting more on my own. If you are on the fence about signing up for the workshop, I would definitely encourage you to go for it without hesitation.

Had a great experience learning a new way to synthesise data today. Since it was my first time trying it, it initially felt a little overwhelming and fast-paced, but eventually I started understanding the process and could move forward with it. I’m not completely done yet because I’m currently short on credits, but I’ll continue and complete it once the credits are back.

The workshop was an eye opener on the complexity of AI which is explained and shared simply with the help of Card decks and trying different methods to visualize or pre visualize works . The power of AI is making me realize a lot of organization is easy through claude

I recently had the opportunity to attend a transformative workshop on Claude.ai, led by Pradeep sir. The session was an eye-opener, providing deep insights into how AI can streamline the process of building a custom website from scratch. From understanding complex code structures to practical implementation, the knowledge shared was invaluable. I’m excited to apply these new skills to my future digital projects. A big thank you to Pradeep sir for such an empowering and technical session

The AI-Native Bootcamp
Four weeks, three sessions a week, online and 1:1. You learn the whole AI-native build loop — plan, build, ship — then spend the final week building and deploying your own product.
4 WEEKS · 3 SESSIONS/WK 12 SESSIONS + BUILD WEEK 1:1 · YOU + PRADEEP ONLINE · YOUR TIMEZONE
₹14,999
Plan a free call → Who it's for
- Students who want to graduate with real, shipped products — not just tutorials
- Working professionals — designers, PMs, marketers, operators — going AI-native
- Founders who want to build and ship without waiting on engineers
- Anyone ready to commit ~3 sessions a week for a month and walk out building on their own
The 4-week plan
| WEEK | FOCUS | 3 SESSIONS |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Plan like an AI-native builder | The build loop & mindset · scope & phase your idea · project memory & docs |
| 2 | Build the core | Tools & git (commits, branches, undo) · prompting & delegation · sessions & context memory |
| 3 | Make it real | Database & data · APIs & integrations (keys, AI APIs) · AI-native design & UI |
| 4 | Ship it — your build week | Version control & pull requests · test, debug & secure · deploy, custom domain & demo day |
What you'll cover
- Planning & scoping — turn a big idea into a Phase-1 you can actually ship
- Project memory & documentation — a project memory file + a docs folder so the AI remembers your project
- Prompting & delegation — write asks that work; describe the destination, not every step
- Sessions & context — keep the AI on track across sessions, summarize, recover when context runs out
- Data & APIs — store real data, connect external services, call AI APIs, handle keys safely
- AI-native design — design interfaces with AI that look intentional, not raw — tokens, polish, mobile
- Version control & PRs — branches, pull requests, reviewing changes, undo as a safety net
- Testing, debugging & security — read errors, validate inputs, rate-limit, never expose secrets
- Shipping — deploy to a live URL, connect a custom domain, demo your build
Week 4 — you build something real
The final week is yours. You pick a project and, with Pradeep alongside, run the full loop you just learned — plan it, build it, secure it, and deploy it to a live URL — finishing with a demo. You leave with a working product and the muscle to keep building solo.
What you'll walk out with
- A working product deployed at its own URL — yours to keep
- The full AI-native build loop you can repeat on any idea
- Your own project-memory + docs setup and a reusable project template
- The confidence to plan, build, and ship without writing code yourself
FAQ
Do I need to know how to code?
No. AI writes the code; you learn to direct it in plain words. The bootcamp is built for designers, students, PMs, and founders — not engineers.
What if I don't have an idea yet?
That's fine. Week 1 helps you find and scope one, and you build it in week 4. Come curious; you'll leave with something shipped.
How much time per week?
Three live sessions a week plus a little practice between them. Sessions are recorded, and Pradeep is reachable between them when you're stuck.
Is it really 1:1?
Yes — every session is you and Pradeep. That's the throttle on how many run at once, so slots are limited and start with a quick call.
