From “I have an app idea” to “here’s the live URL.”
Next cohort opens for enrollment soon. Founding rate: $697.
You type a prompt. You get a working prototype. For a few minutes it feels like you’ve cracked the code.
Then you try to make a change and something breaks.
Then you wonder if the login is actually safe.
Then you find the Vibe Code Wall of Shame.
And… you close the tab.
So the prototype sits there. Half-built. Joining the others.
Sprout was built for the moment right after that tab closes.
Thirty days, one live cohort, the AI tools you already wanted to use — Lovable, Bolt, Cursor, Claude — and a path that ends with a real URL you can hand to a real person without flinching.
Sprout runs as a cohort, not a self-paced library you’ll bookmark and abandon. You start when the cohort starts. You ship when the cohort ships. The deadline is part of the product.
What you need isn’t more information. There’s plenty of that on YouTube. What’s missing is a deadline, a small room of people doing the same thing, and someone to ask when you get stuck.
A weekly live call. Sixty minutes. I teach the week’s focus — the tools, the prompts, the patterns — and you leave with a clear next step for your own build. Recorded.
A weekly office hour. Sixty minutes. Open Q&A. Bring whatever’s broken. We debug it together.
A private cohort Slack with me in it. Ask questions between calls. Share what you shipped today. See what other people are building.
This is the part that separates Sprout from a course you watch alone. Most of the actual learning happens between the calls.
Pick the app you’re actually going to ship. Set up your AI tools. Get a working prototype.
The first week is the fun part — and the part the tools already do well. The goal is to get familiar with the tools, and have something running by Friday.
Learn to read and evaluate what the AI wrote for you. Database schemas, API routes, environment variables, login flows.
By the end of week two you can open the files the AI produced and have an idea of what each one does.
We walk through the things AI tools tend to get wrong — unprotected routes, leaked environment variables, half-wired auth, payment flows that look right but aren’t, and how to work with your AI to fix it.
Deploy for real. Custom domain. Real hosting. Real users.
We cover what to monitor after launch, how to continue building, and how to keep your app running when you’re back to a normal week.
I’m a lead software engineer with nearly a decade of experience writing and reviewing code, architecting systems, and problem solving. I use AI coding tools every day — to prototype, to debug, to move faster on real codebases. I know what they do well. I know exactly where they fall over.
I’ve also taught people with zero coding background how to build software, and mentored developers earlier in their careers. That part matters for this. You’re going to ask me things you’re worried sound dumb. I’ve heard them all and none of them are dumb.
The gap I’m teaching to isn’t theoretical. It’s the same one I navigate at work, compressed into 30 days for someone whose first build is still in front of them.
I’ll teach you to verify what the tools built — so you can launch with confidence instead of crossing your fingers.
Format: small group cohort, capped to keep it small enough that I’m actually in your Slack threads.
Timeline: 30 days, cohort start to ship date.
The founding rate is the deal for the people who join the first cohort.
After the first cohort ships, the price goes up.
Payment in full at enrollment. Two-payment plan available on request.
The guarantee
If after week 1 Sprout isn’t working for you — wrong pace, wrong fit, wrong moment in your life — tell me before the week 2 call and I’ll refund you in full.
$200 off the list price.
The first cohort gets me in the Slack and on the calls at a level that won’t scale to cohort two. Future cohorts will be bigger. This one won’t.
Not a demo. Not a screenshot. A live app you built.
You can read what the AI wrote, which means you can change it, fix it, and decide whether to ship it.
The cohort is part of the product. Most of what you remember from a 30-day push is who was in it with you.
You’re not “learning to code.” You’re shipping one specific thing and learning enough to stand behind it.
Join the waitlist. I’ll email you when the next cohort opens for enrollment — waitlist gets first access and the $697 founding rate.
Good vibes, deeper roots.
