For real people — no tech background needed

Learn Claude from the ground floor up.

Most trainings throw features at you and hope it sticks. We build the foundation first — so you walk out actually knowing how to use it, on day one, with a real skill you can add to your resume.

Why we started this

Five trainings. Still stuck.

Our co-founder Jason runs a $220-million company. He sat through five different AI trainings — and walked away still unsure what to actually do on Monday morning. Not because he isn't smart. Because nobody took the time to build the foundation.

Every course rushed to the shiny stuff and skipped the basics. I could nod along in the room, then freeze the second I sat down to do it myself.

The Ground Floor difference

We fix the thing every other training skips.

Four promises that make the difference between "that was neat" and "I use this every single day."

Foundation first, always

We slow down and build the core skills — the ones nobody else teaches — until they're second nature. Everything else stands on top of them.

All three ways to use it

The everyday app, the power-user tools, and building your own. Most trainings teach one. We teach how they connect so you're never boxed in.

Never out of date

Claude changes weekly. So do we. New features get a plain-English walkthrough within days — and a text so you never miss it.

Live, every week

Bring a real task to a live session and leave with it done. No recordings-only. Real people, real questions, real answers.

How the learning is built

You start at the ground floor. Then we build up.

No jumping into the deep end. Each floor rests on the one below it — so by the time you're doing advanced things, they feel easy.

Ground 01
The foundationWhat Claude is, how it thinks, how to trust it
↑ everything is built on this ↑
  • We don't assume you know anything.

    No jargon, no "you should already know this." If a word needs explaining, we explain it — in plain English.

  • Every floor unlocks the next.

    You'll never feel lost, because each lesson only uses what you already learned on the floor below.

  • You practice on your own real work.

    Your emails, your marketing, your admin, your side project. Not made-up examples that don't matter to you.

  • Stable core + fresh updates.

    The timeless foundations never move. The "what's new" section stays current so you're always up to speed.

The three ways to use Claude

Most people only ever learn one. You'll know all three.

This is the piece almost every other training leaves out — and it's exactly why people stay stuck at "basic chatbot."

01
Start here

The everyday app

Chatting with Claude the normal way — on your computer or phone. Writing, planning, answering, organizing. The daily driver for 90% of what you'll do.

02
Power up

The power-user tools

Letting Claude work with your actual files and get real jobs done for you — not just answer questions. Where the big time-savings live.

03
Build it

Build your own

Making your own little helpers and tools — no coding degree required. The "I can't believe I made that" moment that changes how you see all of it.

What your membership includes

Everything you need to actually keep up.

One membership. No upsells, no "advanced tier" holding the good stuff hostage.

Live sessions every week

Bring your real work to a live call and get unstuck on the spot.

The foundation library

The stable, timeless lessons — always there to rewatch, in order, at your pace.

Text alerts

A friendly text when something new drops or a session's about to start. Never miss it.

The "what's new" feed

Claude changes fast. We turn every update into a plain-English walkthrough within days.

A community of your people

Other non-techies figuring it out too. Ask anything — no question is too basic here.

Recordings of everything

Miss a live call? It's waiting for you, organized and searchable, the next morning.

Copy-and-use templates

Prompts and setups that already work — grab one, tweak it, done.

A clear path to follow

Always know exactly what to learn next. No more staring at a blank screen.

It doesn't stop at the basics

Once it clicks, keep leveling up.

The foundation gets you going. Then there's always a next step — so your membership never goes stale.

A skill for your resume & your career

"AI / Claude skills" is exactly what employers are hunting for right now — and you'll be able to actually back it up.

Bring your real work, live

Weekly workshops where you get your actual tasks done — not just watch someone else do it.

Build your own tools

Once the basics click, make simple helpers that do the repetitive stuff for you.

Playbooks for your line of work

Claude for real estate, contractors, insurance, restaurants and more — practical, not generic.

Fresh templates & monthly challenges

New copy-and-use prompt packs and friendly challenges to keep your momentum going.

Who's teaching you

Two non-technical guys who figured it out — so you don't have to.

We're not developers. That's the whole point. We learned this the same way you're about to, and we remember exactly where it got confusing.

Co-founder · Teaching & delivery

Brian Davis

A small-business owner with zero tech background and a knack for making confusing things simple (and a little bit fun). If Brian can learn it, he can teach it — in plain English, with the jokes to keep it human.

Co-founder · The owner's lens

Jason Goldberg

Owner of The AFS Group, a $220-million flooring company. Jason sat through five AI trainings and still felt lost — so he set out to build the one that finally makes sense for busy, non-technical people.

Questions, answered

Wondering if this is for you?

Can I put this on my resume?
Absolutely — that's part of the point. Actually knowing how to use AI like Claude is one of the most in-demand skills right now, and you'll be able to back it up for real, not just list it.
I'm really not a "tech person." Is this actually for me?
That's exactly who we built it for. Both founders are non-technical. We assume no background, define every term, and go at a pace where nobody gets left behind.
Do I have to show up live?
Nope. The live sessions are the best part, but everything is recorded and organized so you can learn on your own schedule and still catch up.
Claude keeps changing. Won't this go out of date?
That's the whole reason we're a membership and not a one-time course. When Claude ships something new, we turn it into a plain-English walkthrough within days — and text you so you know.
Is this just for business owners?
Not at all. Whether you want to grow a business, start one, or just get more done in your own life — the foundation is the same, and it's for you.
What if I join and it's not for me?
You've got 14 days. If it's not a fit, ask for a full refund — no hoops, no hard feelings. And you can cancel anytime after that.
