Claude Code Builder for Solopreneurs and Creators

Dheeraj Sharma

AI Systems Builder at GenAI Unpugged

Stop staring at the blank folder. Build a Claude Code AI system that ships.

You watched the YouTube tutorial. You installed Claude Code. You opened a terminal and stared at a blank folder.

The bar for what anyone can build alone is rising fast. The gap between people who use AI tools and people who build AI systems widens every month. Most Claude Code attempts die in 20 minutes.

Not because the tool is hard, but because nobody showed you what is possible before asking you to build.

Tutorials & self-paced courses don't get you there. You need an instructor watching as you build, and other builders alongside you so you don't disappear after Week 2.

In 6 weeks, you build a Claude Code system that runs your business:

✅ turns your inputs into your outputs in your voice;

✅ connects to your real tools (Gmail, Notion, Google Drive, Calendar, Obsidian, Tavily) through 3-5 MCP servers;

✅ automates multi-agent pipelines through a live Hot Seat Build;

✅ reaches you on your phone; runs on a schedule without you.

Taught live by Dheeraj Sharma, Founder of GenAI Unplugged, 9 AI products shipped, 75+ articles on building AI systems for solopreneurs.

Session 1 Guarantee: Leave with clarity and confidence that this cohort is right for you. Else full refund. No questions.

Who this course is for

  • AI-Curious Professional who uses ChatGPT daily but wants to BUILD AI systems that run their work, not just chat with an assistant.
  • Content creator or newsletter writer who tried Claude Code once, hit the blank folder, and gave up before shipping anything.
  • Solopreneur or small business owner drowning in research, drafts, and client summaries who wants AI system to handle the repeat work.

Prerequisites

  • A laptop for each live session (Mac, Windows, or Linux. No tablet-only setups)

    You will be typing in a terminal during live sessions. A real keyboard and full OS are required.

  • An active Claude Pro subscription ($20/month) or Claude Max

    Claude Code runs on your Claude account. Free tier will hit limits during the live builds. Pro is the minimum.

The Hot Seat Build (Session 5)

One student volunteers their real problem. Dheeraj builds the multi-agent pipeline live, narrating every architectural decision. Class watches, questions, and forks the pattern.

Forkable starter templates

A starter template for every build session. You customize, you don't code from scratch.

Working files from every session

All prompt libraries, knowledge-layer templates, and working files from each session. Yours to keep and remix.

Your AI system, on your phone

Connect your Claude Code agents to Telegram or Discord. Trigger workflows, get drafts, fire off prompts from anywhere. Built into the curriculum, not an add-on.

Closing ceremony of your build. Demo what you shipped to the cohort. Private to Maven, not broadcast publicly.

  • GenAI Unplugged is a rare 'no-fluff' zone in the AI world. Dheeraj provides the technical clarity and real-world 'receipts' that most newsletters miss. It is the only technical AI newsletter I read that feels like it was written for people who actually build things on a deeper level.

    Elena Calvillo

    AI Product Manager
  • Most AI automation writing reads like it was built to sell a course you'll never finish. Dheeraj writes like someone who actually uses the thing he's explaining, which is why he's my go-to for n8n, Claude Code, and anything technical.

    Nick Quick

    Solo Creator & Newsletter Publisher
  • Dheeraj has a wonderful way of taking the mystery out of AI without making those of us who are just starting out feel out of our depth. He makes complex subjects feel much more accessible, laying things out simply and step-by-step. It's like having a supportive guide working with you, someone who just wants to see you succeed.
