Become an AI Native Product Builder in 5 Weeks
David Wang (Product Dave)
20+ YoE | 8+ Yrs Teaching | 5K Students
Build Product Thinking, AI Fluency, as a Full Stack Product Builder
This 5-week course is designed for Engineers, Designers, BA's, Analytics teams, Operations, and product-adjacent professionals who want to move into product without starting from zero.
👉 This course teaches the PM Foundations first, then we'll use AI to build a working Product in Production.
(This is a highly curated, 12-person course, not a 500-person class, where you get lost in the noise)
What you'll learn:
By the end, you won’t just say “I want to be a AI PM” -> You'll walk out as an "AI Builder"
You'll walk away with a Working Product with a case study, reviewed by me, that shows how you think, how you make decisions, and how you turn messy problems into clear product work.
You’ll work through the same artefacts product teams use in real companies: Customer Research, Market Dynamics, PRDs, North Star Metrics & Product Roadmaps.
You'll build an AI Product. Guaranteed!
