Build Made Simple

You have an idea for a tool — a checker, a calculator, a scorecard — and no developer to build it. In this half-day workshop you build it yourself with Claude, step by step alongside Sheena, the same way she built the AI Readiness Tool. You leave with a working tool and the knowledge to build the next one.

Ideal for: People with ideas, not developers — you want a working AI tool without writing code.
