Certifications don’t move careers. Shipped products do
The tech industry is changing faster than most people want to admit.
AI prototyping is showing up in performance evaluations, job descriptions, interviews.
"Show me something you've built" is becoming a real ask. And the honest answer for most PMs, even good ones, is: "I have nothing I can point to".
That's not a motivation problem. It's a structure problem. You know AI coding tools exist. You've probably opened a tutorial. But between a full-time job, a packed roadmap, and zero guardrails, nothing ships.
Meanwhile, the gap between PMs who can build and PMs who can't is getting harder to close with credentials.
Certifications don't close it. Courses that end with a PDF don't close it.
The only thing that closes it is a shipped product with your name on it.
In 4 weeks, this programme takes you through the exact workflow I used to ship my own iOS app. From blank screen to App Store.
You'll finish with a live product that has an AI powered feature, a repeatable build process, and a career narrative that doesn't need a certificate to back it up.
What you’ll learn
Go from using AI for productivity to shipping an app with an AI feature, a repeatable build process, and a career narrative that proves it.
Execute the full build workflow using Claude Code, Flutter, and Firebase, etc. The same stack Gabor used to ship his own app.
Submit your app to the App Store or Google Play and leave with a live product on your resume.
Follow a step-by-step Build Companion App with milestone checklists, so nothing falls through the cracks with your development environment
Gain the most in-demand skill of PMs by hands-on building
Identify the most common vibe coding traps before they cost you days of rework.
Build a prompting strategy that produces reliable, production-quality code.
Learn how AI agents act on users' behalf and what that means for how you design features and flows.
Apply an AI-native product design framework most PMs don't have yet
Construct product specs precise enough to generate production-quality code on the first pass.
Map your user flows and screen architecture before writing a single line of code.
Leave with a complete PRD and prompting strategy for your shipped app.

Who this course is for
A mid-to-senior PM who wants to become an AI PM but has no chance to build an AI feature/product in their current role.
A technical IC (designer, analyst, or program manager) with a product idea and the instincts to build, but no clear workflow to ship it.
A PM in career transition who knows certificates won't differentiate them and wants a shipped app on their name as a career proof.
Prerequisites
Familiarity with software products
You don't need to code, but you should understand how software is built to make product decisions and direct an AI co-pilot with confidence
Have a laptop (<4 years old) and a mobile phone (<4 years old)
If your tech is too old, some steps may take significantly longer
Expect additional software licence fees
In addition to the course's price there will be software license fees between $120-$250. (This goes back to near $0 once your app is built.)
