Sample cohort schedule
From Day 1 to Demo Day.
Here’s what the two-week Forge experience looks like: roughly 15–20 hours total, anchored by three live sessions.
Build Workshop. Students learn how AI agents work, see examples across industries, and build a working AI agent step by step. Every student leaves with an agent that answers questions from a knowledge base, captures leads, and notifies the business owner.
Students choose a real business (we recommend one they already know, like a tutor, gym, or local shop) and customize and improve their AI agent throughout the week. Students who want an additional challenge can add integrations.
Entrepreneurship & Pitch Workshop. Students learn how to pitch their AI solution by communicating business value rather than features, create a professional two-minute demo video, use AI to develop a personalized outreach strategy, and prepare to present confidently at Demo Day.
Students record their demo video, pitch their AI agent to real businesses, and rehearse their Demo Day presentation.
Demo Day. Students present the problem they solved, demonstrate their AI agent, and answer questions from parents and a guest judge.
Weekly live office hours, group chat support, every session is recorded, and optional one-on-one help if needed.
Exact dates are finalized with the founding cohort.
