Free AI Business Course

Go from nothing to a paying software client.

A free course in 36 lessons. You build real apps with AI from the first day, then pick a niche, set up how you run, and go get your first client. Every step has a prompt to paste, a checklist, or something to build.

Free course, free sign-up. 36 lessons in 8 modules.

Day 1 build promptpaste this straight in
Build a simple customer enquiry form app.
Fields: name, email, phone, type of enquiry (dropdown: quote, booking, general question), and a message box.
When someone submits the form, save it as a record I can see in a simple list view, with the newest first and the date it came in.
Keep the design clean and professional. Nothing fancy.
Lesson 0.1 opens with this: paste it into Base44, change one thing yourself, and publish it. It’s a first rep, not a finished product.

How the six weeks go

The shape of the course, so you know what you’re signing up for.

  1. Week 1

    Build seven things

    Module 0. Seven days, seven things you actually put online, before anyone talks to you about strategy.

  2. Weeks 2–4

    Niche, systems, brand

    Modules 1–4. Pick who you're for, set up how you run, and sort out how you show up.

  3. Weeks 5–6

    Outreach and client #1

    Modules 5–7. Real outreach, a demo that closes, and the week that lands your first invoice.

  4. After that

    It gets faster

    Every client after the first takes a fraction of the time, because you're reusing your own work.

Questions

Is it actually free?

Yes. The course and the sign-up are free, with no card. The builds happen in Base44, and a Base44 subscription is the one thing you pay for.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. Every build happens in Base44, an AI app builder: you paste the prompt from the lesson, then describe changes in plain English. Getting good at describing what you want is the skill the first week trains.

What do I need to start?

A computer, your phone (to open what you build), and a Base44 subscription, since that's where every build happens. Most of all, time each week to do the work.

How long does it take?

The route is about six weeks: a week of daily builds, three weeks on your niche, systems and brand, then two weeks of outreach toward your first client. It's self-paced, so go faster or slower.

Learn to build and sell software to real businesses.

It’s real work: choosing a niche, reaching out to owners, and delivering what you promise. The course lays out each step.
