A new weekly AI Studio series at Founders Club, Hellodesk Monterey for founders and operators ready to think, build, and lead with AI.
AI isn’t coming. It’s here. And founders / operators who aren’t building with it are already behind.
That’s why we’re kicking off AI Studio — a new hands-on event series hosted by Founders Club at Hellodesk Monterey.
This isn’t a panel. It’s not a keynote. It’s a real session for builders, operators, and tech-forward leaders who are ready to move.
What this session is:
This is the first session in a 10-week AI Studio series hosted on most Wednesday at Founders Club — a public, hands-on journey as I rebuild myself (and my companies) as an AI-native founder.
Each week, I’ll share what I’m building, learning, and experimenting with — from AI agents to automation workflows — all through the lens of real founder use cases.
This kickoff session is designed for non-technical founders, executives, and builders who are curious about AI, but haven’t yet made it part of their daily workflow. Even if you’ve only tried ChatGPT a few times — this is where to start.
In this first session, we’ll cover:
- What it really means to become an AI-native founder or operator — and why this mindset shift is happening faster than most realize.
- ️ A walkthrough of how my products Schoolze Labs and Hellodesk are being reimagined from the ground up using AI — from fundraising flows to operations.
- A precursor of tools like Claude, Cursor, Supabase, and Vercel — and how even non-coders can use them to build faster and smarter.
- A preview of AI agent blueprints that I’ll be assembling in the coming weeks — and how these agents will change how we launch products.
- Lessons from my early build process: the tools I wish I had used sooner, and how AI is already replacing hours of work across my teams.
This session is open, practical, and designed to give you a real-world view of how AI is showing up in the day-to-day of modern company building.
Whether you’re a CEO, a solo builder, or just AI-curious — this is the place to begin.
This one is open. And it’s where the journey begins.
P.S. This session is open to all, but future ones in the series will go deeper — with hands-on builds, live AI demos, and member-only collaborations.
