Cohort-based Course

Talk to customers. Test assumptions. Build with conviction.

Course overview

Master AI-Powered Discovery. Build What Customers Want.

Are you at the early stages—or vibe building—a new product or feature? You might have technical insights, domain expertise, and already be on your way toward launch.


While building fast is vital, no market need remains one of the biggest causes of failure for new products/services. Most teams end up creating features nobody truly wants.


But proper Customer Discovery, powered by AI, tilts success in your favor.


This cohort is an accelerator. It shows you how to incorporate continuous discovery into your existing workflow.


You’ll master an AI-powered discovery system that fits how real builders work: uncover true customer needs, validate your product, and pitch with evidence-backed conviction—all while you keep prototyping and moving fast.


Over 5 weeks, plenty of 1-1 time, and post-course Office Hours, you will:


• Transform your idea and expertise into a build ready specification grounded in real demand


• Learn rapid discovery techniques powered by AI to uncover what customers need


• Confidently communicate your value proposition to investors or internal teams


• Build your own AI-powered discovery toolkit. Including an Interview Coach that helps you run better interviews and uncovers insights.


By course end, you’ll have:


A concise build-ready specification that clearly maps customer-validated features and priorities. You can take this directly into your vibe coding workflow and build with conviction.


AI is advancing too fast for anyone to afford guesswork. Run smarter discovery and de-risk what you build next.

What you’ll get out of this course

Master Core Discovery Skills: A Systematic, AI-Enhanced Approach for Faster, Higher-Quality Insights

Learn a proven discovery system you can reuse and refine to run customer discovery sprints at your company, using AI to both increase insight quality and speed up your process.

Your Validation Stack: A Framework for Validating Key Assumptions

Your AI Discovery Coach analyzes your customer interviews, tells you which assumptions were validated, and provides coaching feedback to help you conduct more effective discovery conversations.

What people are saying

        The structured customer discovery framework transformed how I approach customer conversations. It pulls so much more insight from interviews and forced me to focus on the right questions around customer pain points. For technical founders new to entrepreneurship, this process is incredibly valuable.
