Agentic Buildcamp: Vibe Coder → Entrepreneur

Amir Feizpour, PhD

Founder at Aggregate Intellect

A cognitive gym where AI agents build, and entrepreneurs sharpen their judgement

You have an insight, and your most recent jobs haven't given you room to have an impact with it. So you've been trying to build a product or service yourself with AI agents, but:

  • The bar for what's expected keeps moving

  • Projects stall at 60% done

  • The engineering or business complexity overwhelms you

🟢 HOW WE HELP

Here you get reps on killing bad ideas, hearing the objection your buyer hasn't said out loud, and building until something you made is worth paying for.

▶️ See our alumni profiles

🟢 PROGRAM

  1. Day 1: We help you set up and ideate. You start building.

  2. Week 1: We do group stand-ups every day. You do a demo on Sunday.

  3. Mentors & peers give you feedback so that you can drop parts of your idea that don't work, refine the rest.

  4. Week 2,3: You continue building or figure out distribution and monetization, guided by Sherpa-b with async access to mentors via Slack. Then you demo again, on Sunday.

  5. Week 4: we do daily stand-ups again to prep you to present your shipped agent in a public showcase on the last Friday.

  6. You (might) come back for another cohort to continue building with us.

🟢 OUTCOME

Before: Vibe Code → ??

After: Build → Break → Fix → Build → Distribute → Fail → Pivot → Build → Monetize

What you’ll learn

This isn't just another course. You'll walk away with tangible assets that advance your career and concrete skills that set you apart.

  • Design and build an agentic AI application around a problem you actually care about, not a preset exercise.

  • Deploy it to production and present at the public demo to hundreds of attendees.

  • Leave with a showcase-ready project you can show to employers, clients, or investors.

  • Work through 30 guided workflows from problem framing and evaluation design to deployment and go-to-market via an MCP server in Claude Code

  • A structured process that transfers across tools and tool generations, not a framework that obsoletes in 6 months.

  • Each workflow produces a concrete artifact (problem framing doc, eval dataset, architecture spec) that carries forward and feeds your build

  • A tested ICP, a hypothesis you've actually put in front of real people and refined accordingly

  • Understanding of where your users hang out, how they buy, and how to reach them

  • A monetization or pricing hypothesis you've stress-tested, not just modeled in a spreadsheet

Who this course is for

  • A person with any background in involuntary career transition (eg. lay off) who wants to have more control over their future

  • A person with any background in voluntary transition (eg. parental leave, leaving academia) who wants to have more control over their future

  • A person with any background whose current employment can't provide for all of their ambition

Prerequisites

  • Lots of enthusiasm to build

    Most participants fail because they're not there to build. Outside of that we don't expect you to bring much prior experience

  • Having used some AI tools

    We will help you set up and use an agentic tool (Claude Code or Claude Desktop or similar tools). Any prior exposure is helpful

  • Version control tools

    Since we use agents heavily, we help you set up Git version control to protect your work as agents "do work" for you.
