Hey ,

The bootcamp put up a page of stuff people actually built, and my own story is on there now, which is honestly a little surreal to see.

But scroll past mine — the others are better.

Ericka. Launch strategist. After the bootcamp she started building an AI team around her own work — 5 agents at first, now 10. Every morning at 9, one of them reads her unread email and Slack and drafts the replies. It drafts. She still hits send.

She also helped a client's video editor who was cutting 20 videos a day by hand. Now three rough cuts come back in about 30 minutes. He still does the format, the transitions, the feel — the parts that are actually him.

(That's the "5 sessions" thing from a couple emails ago. Except she's doing it for a living. And a bunch of you replied to that email asking how — this is how.)

April. Graphic designer. Never opened Claude Code before the bootcamp, not once. She described a small game idea in plain words, let it build a first version, then tested and fixed it as she went. First-timer to a playable game in one session.

Her whole point: your first project doesn't have to be big. One small thing you wish existed. Yun lang.

So that's the range. A total beginner making her first thing, and someone running ten agents — same two nights, same starting line.

And none of them are developers. I keep saying it kasi people keep not believing it.

One more thing that made me happy. Someone on this list replied last week to say they'd found the bootcamp on their own — saw my testimonial there — and already signed up. Didn't even wait for me to pitch it. hehe.

Anyway — Batch 4 is Sept 22 and 24. Early-bird ends this Friday, Sept 19. After that it goes up.

It's application-based, so it's not instant. You apply, they read it, they only send a payment link if you're a real fit. So if you're even a little curious, apply before Friday — no commitment yet, it just keeps the door open.

Reply and tell me — beginner, or already pretty deep? Which one's closer to you right now?

Cheers,

P.S. My page on their site ends on a line I didn't write but agree with: "the hours spent sitting beside each other, figuring things out — those stay." The build is the excuse. It was the same with Julian.
