Why choose this course?

Lots of people can use AI.
Few can build with it.

You don't need to code to build with AI. You need to know how it works and which tools to use.

No coding required

Every week is built around no-code tools and Claude Code, so you build real systems without learning to programme.

Up to date

Covers the newest agent tools, such as Jev, OpenAI's Decisions API and OpenClaw or Dots, taught concept-first so your skills outlast any one vendor.

Production, not just demos

Two full weeks on quality and production: evals, guardrails, tracing and cost control.

Open and closed models

Run open-source models on your laptop or in the cloud (Ollama, LM Studio, Hugging Face) and learn when to pick them over frontier models.

Beyond chat

A dedicated week on image, video and voice, from diffusion models to real-time voice agents.

Who is this for?

Built for non-tech professionals.

No coding background needed. If you use a computer at work, you're ready.

Capstone projects

Two real-world builds for your portfolio.

Project 1

Swiggy Customer-Support Agent

Build a multi-agent support system in LangGraph where tool‑equipped agents (triage, refund-handler and escalation-writer) hand off through conditional routing. Test it on 30 simulated tickets, measure resolution accuracy and write up the architecture.

Skills
  • LangGraph
  • Multi-agent design
  • Conditional routing
  • Architecture documentation
OutcomeProduction-grade multi-agent system with eval results
Project 2

Cred Knowledge-Base RAG System

Build a RAG system over public sources (credit-card terms, RBI guidelines and Cred help articles) with LangChain and a vector DB (Chroma). Evaluate retrieval on 30 test queries and report grounding accuracy.

Skills
  • LangChain
  • Chroma/Pinecone
  • Vector embeddings
  • Evaluation
OutcomeWorking RAG system with quantified retrieval accuracy

Outcomes

What you'll walk away with.

01

Build without code

Ship workflows, agents and apps with n8n and Claude Code, and deploy them with Vercel.

02

Design agents and RAG on your own data

Context engineering, decision models (Jev, OpenAI Decisions API), MCP, graph and agentic RAG, plus computer‑use and always‑on assistants.

03

Make AI reliable and affordable

Test with evals, add guardrails and human approvals, trace runs in Langfuse, and know when an open-source model is the cheaper, safer choice.

04

Graduate with a portfolio

Real-world capstone projects: a Swiggy support agent and a Cred RAG system.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is the duration and weekly effort of the programme?

The programme runs for 12 weeks.

Is the programme live or recorded?

Live. Every class and doubt session is held live.

What is the mode of delivery for the programme?

Live and online.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You build with no-code tools such as n8n, and Claude Code writes any code for you.

How is agentic AI covered?

It runs through four weeks. You design agents and connect them to tools (Week 4), run teams of agents that build, review and test (Week 8), build always-on assistants and computer-use agents (Week 9), and add guardrails and human approvals before anything goes live (Week 10).

What are the capstone projects?

There are two. In the Swiggy Customer-Support Agent, you build a team of agents that triages tickets, handles refunds and escalates the rest. In the Cred Knowledge-Base RAG System, you build an assistant that answers questions from RBI guidelines and credit-card terms. You present your work at Demo Day.

What tools will I learn?

Claude Code, n8n, Pinecone, promptfoo, Langfuse, Hugging Face, Ollama and ElevenLabs, among others. Each week lists the tools it covers.

Who will be teaching the classes in this programme?

Industry mentors from leading companies who use Gen AI and agentic AI in their day-to-day work, so you learn how these tools are applied in real jobs.

What language are the classes taught in?

English.

What laptop or system do I need?

At minimum, a laptop with 8 GB of RAM and about 10 GB of free storage. That's enough to run small open-source models of around 3B parameters, and you don't need a separate graphics card. On a Mac, you need an Apple Silicon chip (M1 or newer) with macOS 14 or later.
