AI training that ends with working agents.
An onsite workshop, then four weeks building real agents with your team. Learn from AI founders directly.
“We’d each been working with AI on our own. Valet helped us turn that into something collaborative, giving us real ways to share what we were building across the team.”
“We were trying to keep up with AI innovation on our own, but we didn’t know where to start. In a single day, Valet got everyone fluent in the tools and then built with us on real problems inside our organization. We walked out with agents and automated workflows actually running against one of our biggest bottlenecks. It moved AI from something we talked about to something we use.”
A workshop, then tech-therapy.
Most AI training stops at the demo. We stop to understand.
The first section covers how these tools actually work. Then we listen and understand what makes your job hard. We leave armed with the insights to build solutions that make your day easier.
How it works
The model, the harness, and how to leverage it.
Research
We dig into the problems your team faces getting work done.
Next 4 weeks
We build agents with you that make your job easier.
How to actually use Claude and ChatGPT.
We start with what is in the box: how the model predicts, where it breaks, and how to tell a good answer from a lucky one.
Then the tools your team already pays for. Claude Code for shipping work. ChatGPT and Claude for daily cowork. And how to connect them to your Slack, Drive, and CRM so they see real context.
What the model sees
"The cat sat on the ___"
It does not know the answer. It holds a distribution and samples from it. Same prompt, different day, different word. Once your team sees this, the magic turns into something they can reason about.
Learn the Blueprint Method.
Every agent comes down to four concepts: what is its goal, what skills can it use, what triggers it, and how does it communicate with you?
Write those and you have a blueprint. We'll learn how to build these together.
Outcome
Every Monday at 8am, a pipeline digest: deals moved, deals stalled past 14 days, three follow-ups to send.
Skills
Reads the CRM, ranks deals by stall risk, and drafts follow-up emails in your voice.
Trigger
Monday 07:30, and on demand when someone mentions the bot.
Channel
Posts to #sales-pipeline. Never sends a DM.
The engagement
We build real agents with you.
Once you've taken our workshop, you're in our community. We'll support you over the next month to turn your ideas into production agents your business can rely on. We'll build examples for you, work with your team to deploy them, and help you on your own exploration.
Meet your instructors.
