The fastest way to take a team from AI-curious to AI-confident. One course. The mental models that stick, the four tools that matter, and every person writing a real prompt on their own work before it's over.
From first-time users to entire teams, FLUENT takes people at every level to real, working AI fluency.
AI is everywhere. Most teams are nowhere with it.
A few people use AI every day. Most don’t use it at all. Nobody has the same mental model, the same tools, or the same habits. That gap is quiet but expensive — and it compounds every month you wait.
FLUENT fixes it in a single session. For everyone, at once.
Everyone’s racing to teach the advanced stuff — AI agents, automations, complex workflows. But most people aren’t stuck because AI is hard. They’re stuck because nobody ever showed them where to begin. The First Inch is that very first step — the confident start almost no one teaches. Get fluent here, and everything after it gets easy.
Talk to AI with confidence, pick the right tool, and get real results on your own work. This is what we teach.
Once it clicks, you find your own uses everywhere and stop asking whether AI can help — you just try it.
The advanced things everyone else teaches — you’ll be ready for them, because you started with the inch.
And it’s for everyone. I’ve taught people at every level of technical skill, and by the end each one could use AI proficiently. It doesn’t matter where you start — The First Inch takes you to a better way of working, and a better life, in and out of the office.
FLUENT is a focused, hands-on AI training — designed so that every single person in the room writes a real prompt on their own work before it’s over. Not a lecture. Not a demo. A session where the doing is the point.
No jargon. No overwhelm. Get Fluent, the same day.
The core is identical across every format — the mental models, the four tools, and a real first prompt. Choose how you want to experience it.
Six modules. ~90 minutes. Buy once, start now, keep it forever. The same on-ramp as the live session, on your own time.
Start for $51 For teams · in-person or virtualA 2-hour, hands-on session built for your team. Custom materials, everyone prompts, your portal keeps it alive. From $10k.
Book a session For events · conferences & all-handsThe rare AI keynote where the whole room actually does something. Relevant, memorable, zero-risk for your event.
For event plannersNot "aware of AI." Not "tried it once." Actually fluent — with a mental model that sticks and a real prompt under their belt.
The mental models don’t change. The four tools don’t change. The only thing that changes is which prompts matter most for your team’s actual work.
“I’ve been to a dozen AI trainings. This is the first one where everyone in the room actually used it — during the session. That’s the whole game.”
“The custom prompt library alone was worth the engagement fee. Our team has a shared starting point now instead of everyone doing their own thing.”
“Rated #1 session of the conference. Three months later people are still talking about the moment everyone had to write their own prompt.”
Whether it’s you, your team, or your whole company — the first inch is where it starts. The future belongs to the people who become fluent in AI.
