Learn AI by building
Build one real thing with AI every month.
Rough Draft Builders Club is for non-technical adults who are tired of watching tutorials. Each month you build and ship one real project, guided step by step — so a year from now you have twelve things you made, not twelve you started.
Taught in public by a founder who is still learning too. No hype, no income promises.

The promise
Every month, you build one real thing with AI — guided step by step — so that a year from now you have twelve shipped projects instead of twelve unfinished tutorials.
Notice what that promise doesn’t say. It doesn’t promise income or a dollar figure. It promises a process and an output you can actually control: things you’ve built and shipped.
Who it’s for
Built for beginners, not engineers
This is for you if…
- You’re comfortable with everyday apps but have never coded.
- You’ve used ChatGPT a bit and want to actually build things.
- You have a few hours a week, not a full-time schedule.
- You’re at a turning point and want a new, useful skill.
- You want to be shown, not sold to.
It’s probably not for you if…
- You’re already a working software developer.
- You want client-acquisition or agency growth tactics.
- You’re expecting guaranteed income. We don’t offer that.
What it solves
The things that keep beginners stuck
Too many tools, no clear starting point
Every week there’s a new AI tool. You don’t need all of them — you need to know which one to open first.
“Am I too late, or not technical enough?”
You’ve never written code and you feel behind. You’re not. This is built for exactly where you are.
Burned by past courses
You’ve bought something before and never finished it. So we optimise for finishing, not for hours of video.
No bridge from “curious” to “I made this”
You can watch tutorials forever without shipping anything. We fix the shipping part.
Learning alone
There’s no one to ask a “dumb” question or show your work to. Here there is.
Not enough time
You have a few hours a week, not forty. Each build is scoped to fit a real life.
Your first 7 days
Ship something real in your first week — no coding required
You start with beginner-friendly, no-code tools so you can publish something fast. Then by day 7 you’ll install Claude Code and meet the workflow you’ll use from month one — Claude writes the code, not you.
- Days 1–2Set up and get oriented
- Days 3–5Build one small, real thing with your own content
- Day 6Publish it and share it in the community
- Day 7Install Claude Code and see the workflow ahead

Who’s behind this
Taught by someone still learning too
Most “learn AI” programs are taught by people performing expertise. This one is different on purpose: it’s taught from a few steps ahead, in public, by a founder who is still figuring things out — and showing the real, rough-draft process instead of a polished highlight reel.
That’s the whole idea behind “rough draft.” You don’t need to be an expert to start building. You need a next step and someone willing to take it with you.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. The membership is built for people who have never written a line of code. Your first win in week one uses beginner-friendly no-code tools, and by day 7 you’ll install Claude Code and see the workflow you’ll use from there. Claude writes the code — you direct it.
How much time does it take?
It’s designed for a few hours a week. Each monthly build is scoped so you can finish it around a job and a life, not quit your week to keep up.
Will this make me money?
We won’t promise that. What we promise is capability and shipped projects — real things you built with AI. Some members will explore income paths from there, but we make no earnings guarantees.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancellation is self-serve, with no phone call and no retention maze. See the pricing page and refund policy for the details.
