What you'll leave with
No theory overload. A real, tested prototype.
Compress months of product work into five intensive days — and leave with more than a deck.
01
A Validated AI Concept
Short text for a typical Onepage use-case. Around 30 words suffice to neatly fill an average paragraph, ensuring a clean appearance and readability.
02
A High-Fidelity Prototype
Built with no-code tools, tested for trust, transparency, and usability with real users.
03
A 90-Day Execution Plan
Defined MVP scope, technical milestones, and a go‒to‒market strategy.
04
Defined KPIs
A clear way to measure whether your AI product is actually working.
05
Mentor Feedback
Present to a panel of mentors and leave with direct, structured critique.
06
A Repeatable Method
The AI-first design frameworks you can run again with your own team.
The 5 days
One challenge. Five days.

Day 01
The Challenge & The Opportunity
Teams align on the core challenge, map the end-to-end user journey, and run structured interviews to surface real pain points — then use AI opportunity-scoring frameworks to separate genuine AI use cases from hype.

Day 02
Explore AI Product Patterns
Teams explore proven AI product patterns — from recommendation engines to conversational agents — and sketch bold solutions using Crazy 8s and structured brainstorming, then map data flows and model choices with human-in-the-loop trust and usability in mind.

Day 03
Build a High‒Fidelity AI Prototype
Ideas become tangible. Teams build high-fidelity AI prototypes using no-code tools, master prompt design, and create compelling AI interaction flows.

Day 04
Test With Real Users
Prototypes go in front of real users. Teams run structured usability tests measuring trust, transparency, perceived intelligence, and error recovery — learning to tell UX friction apart from AI model issues, then rapidly iterate.

Day 05
Roadmap, MVP Scope & Demo
Teams define their AI MVP scope, build a phased roadmap with clear technical milestones, and develop a go-to-market strategy — closing with presentations to a panel of mentors and a concrete 90-day execution plan.
