Workshops
Claude Code 101, talking-to-users clinics, cold-outreach sprints, stakeholder management, taught by builders from the community, laptops open, always.
03 · go-to-market
GTM School
A 20-session go-to-market curriculum (with WIPM), positioning & branding, AI search, landing pages, first 10 customers, pricing, paid ads, PLG, Product Hunt, and Claude as your GTM partner.
04 · craft
Design School
Designing the front door, using AI to take the brief (not the job), and building real brand systems, so builders ship products that look as good as they work.
05 · flagship program
Project Shipyard
A 3-Sunday build sprint, ideate, build a working MVP, go to market, ending in a live demo day. Community-led, weekend-paced, completely free. The demos end; the building does not.
06 · for women builders
Ladies Who Ship
Women-only mini-buildathons and demo days, a room where women builders ship real products and get taken seriously, by default.
07 · social
Movie Mixers & Coffee Chats
The Social Network on a big screen, build n’ yap co-working, coffee with people building weird things. Co-founders and first users are found between builds.
08 · touch grass
Sports
Cricket, badminton and box-cricket meetups. Because the best debugging happens away from the keyboard, and somebody has to prove builders can run.
// took the mic
A few featured speakers & community members.
Just a glimpse, hundreds of founders and operators have led sessions and shipped alongside the circle.

Straight from the camera roll.

Tangible results, not vibes.
AI projects shipped
Agents, no-code apps and internal tools, built at buildathons and sprints, launched into the real world.
on Product Hunt
Nine founders from the circle shipped Top-3 Product of the Day launches. The group chat went feral each time.
life-changing pivots
Members who started companies, earned promotions, or switched into roles they actually wanted, after building in public here.

Generous friends who’ve opened doors.

What builders say about AI Learn Circle across LinkedIn & X, straight off the feed.
ARAnkit R.Founder · stealth AI
★★★★★
Walked into an AI Learn Circle buildathon with a vague idea and walked out with a working demo and two teammates. First time I actually shipped instead of just planning.
PMPriya M.PM, fintech
★★★★★
The hacker house was unreal. 1am, whiteboards everywhere, nobody letting anyone doomscroll. Shipped my first AI agent by breakfast.
RDRahul D.Indie hacker
Most communities are Discord graveyards. AILC is the opposite, people actually show up, actually build, actually help. Got my first paying customer from a connection I made here.
SKSneha K.Design engineer
★★★★★
Non-sponsored, no gurus, no fluff. Just builders who ship next to you. Rare to find something this real in the AI space.
AVAditya V.Building in voice AI
Did the Voice Agent Jam and it genuinely changed how I demo. Went from slides to a live product in one evening. The energy is contagious.
MTMeghna T.Ex-Big4, now founder
★★★★★
Women's AI Demo Day gave me the push to launch. Standing in a room of builders who take you seriously does something to your confidence.
KSKaran S.Full-stack builder
The Claude Code workshop paid for itself in a week. Learned agentic harnesses from someone who actually builds with them daily, not a slide-reader.
DNDivya N.Product @ SaaS startup
★★★★★
Build n' Yap movie nights are the secret weapon. Half networking, half therapy, all builders. Found my co-founder at one.
RARohit A.Solo founder
★★★★★
Shipped, got 3 users, and hit Top 5 Product of the Day, all traced back to a Shipping Saturday nudge. The group chat went feral, in the best way.
IBIshita B.AI engineer
1.5 years in and AILC still feels like the only place in Bengaluru where 'let's just build it' is the default answer. It's home for anyone who ships.
VPVarun P.Founder, seed-stage
★★★★★
Went for the free food, stayed for the community. Ended up with a POC, a mentor, and an intro to an investor. Non-sponsored and still this good.
NRNisha R.Growth @ AI startup
★★★★★
Cold to Conversations sprint got me from 0 to 40 booked meetings in a month. Real playbooks from people who've done it, not theory.
…and 2,000+ more in the group chat. See LinkedIn ↗
