This bootcamp is for anyone interested in learning how to build products with AI, regardless of experience. It's perfect for aspiring founders, students, makers, and professionals looking for a beginner-friendly, hands-on introduction to building with AI. No prior coding or startup experience required.

No prior coding experience is needed. The bootcamp is designed for beginners and will walk you through the basics of building with AI tools. If you have some coding experience, you'll learn new ways to use AI to accelerate your workflow.

You'll start your own AI-powered product or project, guided by Adeo Ressi. The sessions are hands-on, so you'll leave with a working prototype or the foundations of your idea, plus a clear path to keep building after the bootcamp.

Yes. This is a true beginner's bootcamp. The focus is on practical skills, building confidence, and getting you started with AI-powered tools and product development, no matter your background.

Just sign up with your name and email, and pay the entrance fee. You'll receive a welcome email with all the details before Session 1.

All FI bootcamps consist of (1) live feedback and training sessions with experts, (2) a comprehensive catalogue of self-serve videos and training materials, (3) powerful AI tools to help you make progress, and (4) a structured, step-by-step series of "sprints" to guide you through your learning, all delivered via our proprietary "FounderGen" online learning platform.

The FI Core program is a comprehensive 10 session program, followed by a series of advanced accelerators, to help pre-seed founders build a fundable, enduring business for the full lifecycle of their company. Alternatively, FI bootcamps are short, intense, focused educational programs around specific topics relevant to entrepreneurs. Bootcamps are designed to be both standalone AND complimentary to the FI Core program.

Yes - all bootcamp participants receive the video recording shortly after each bootcamp session.

Enrolled Founders are able to enroll in one bootcamp for free and additional bootcamps with a 50% discount. These bootcamps are designed to provide even more value, feedback, and connections to the founders in our accelerator programs worldwide.

Yes - but only participants that complete all of the bootcamp sprints will receive certificates. Simply attending the live sessions is not enough. All FI programs are intensive and designed to push you to make real progress, so you'll only get a certificate if you actually do the work!

Yes! The programs are meant to be complimentary. However, if you are going through FI Core you will be expected to complete all the sprints and attend all the sessions just like everyone else in your cohort, whether or not you are going through a bootcamp. So if the live bootcamp session conflicts with the live FI Core session, you should definitely attend the live FI Core session instead and watch the bootcamp video afterwards.

The bootcamps are virtual and can be attended online.

No, there is no equity component to the bootcamps.

Once the entrance fee is paid, participants are automatically enrolled in the bootcamp, and the fee is non-refundable. This policy is designed to encourage founders to take the leap and begin their startup journey. By making this commitment, participants overcome procrastination and take a crucial step toward building their business and achieving success. If you pay for the Core Program and also participate in a bootcamp, your Core Program refund (if applicable) will be reduced by the cost of the bootcamp.

Yes! You will be able to log in to your account on the FounderGen platform at any time in the future to access your work and all the resources provided throughout the bootcamp. What's more - your learning dashboard will even grow over time with all the new resources and AI tools that FI continues to release.
