Nº 01 Why now

The person who can build is about to be the one who gets hired.

Because here's what's happening: your clients need tools. A custom calculator, a booking system, an internal dashboard, a lead magnet that actually does something.

A year ago you'd have referred that out. Now you can build it yourself. I've been paid to build apps for four of my own clients this year, not as a developer, but as a marketer who learned to direct AI. Some of the people in my last cohort have already started charging for what they built. This isn't a someday skill. It's a right-now one.

So you'll start where every builder should: by building something of your own.

Nº 02 What you leave with

One app unlocks the skill. What you do with it is yours to decide.

After three days, you'll have an app live at a real URL. That matters. But what matters more is that your second will take an evening, and your third might be one a client is paying for.

01

A live app you built

Your idea, your URL, your name on it. Proof, to yourself and to anyone who asks, that you can build.

02

Speed that compounds

Your first app takes a weekend. Your second takes an evening. By your third, you're billing for it.

03

A portfolio that sells for you

"I built this" ends the credibility conversation. Clients stop asking for case studies when they can see the work.

04

The skill underneath

You're not someone who took a course. You're someone who ships. That's a different conversation with every client you talk to.

Nº 03 Read this before you join

Will I actually ship something?

Yes. 100% of the people who showed up to our last cohort shipped a live app by the end of the weekend. Not because they were technical; none of them were. Because we constrain the scope so hard that finishing is the default, not the exception.

You don't need to be technical. You need to show up and be willing to build something imperfect and put it live. That's the bar.

Nº 04 The proof

Real people. One weekend. Real apps, really shipped.

None of these people were engineers. They picked an idea, scoped it down, built it, and shipped it live, all in one weekend. Every one of these apps is real, live, and built by someone who'd never done it before.

Screenshot of Workout Logger Workout Logger Daniel Log each set as you go. No scrolling spreadsheets. → a clean consumer app

Screenshot of Trade Estimator Trade Estimator Matthew An embeddable cost-estimator for trade businesses (drywall, roofing) that works as a lead magnet on their site. → built for a niche he knows

That's the whole promise: not that you'll build the next big thing, but that you'll prove you can build at all. Once you've done it once, the second one comes easy.

Nº 06 What this skill does to a year

Here's my last twelve months. Spot the week I learned this.

Eight months of almost nothing, then Claude Code. Since then I've shipped dozens of small tools that save me and my clients hours every week. Not a career change. A new default.

Nº 07 How it works

One weekend. Three days. Every hour of it.

Around seven live hours total. Every session recorded same-day. Sessions run [TIME TBD], built for people with jobs, on both sides of the Atlantic.

DAY 1 Build it DAY 2 Ship it DAY 3 Level up
Day 1LIVE

Build

Pick your niche and scope (we constrain it hard), watch a live build, then build yours with support in the room.

2–2.5 hrs + help desk
Day 2LIVE

Ship it

Deploy together, step by step. Your app goes live at a real URL. Make it real. Your slot on the Launch Wall.

2–2.5 hrs + help desk
Day 3LIVE

Level up

Add the features that make apps real: AI integrations, databases, environment variables, auth. The building blocks you'll reuse in everything you build next.

2–2.5 hrs + help desk
Pre-flight · RequiredAccounts set up and Claude Code installed via our checklist before Day 1 (~45 min). No pre-flight, no session link. It's how everyone in the room ships.
Miss a session?Recordings land same-day, and the short optional help desk at the end of each session catches you up. Day 2 is the one to move mountains for: that's deploy day.
Nº 08 Fit check

This isn't a webinar.

You're going to build something real, live, alongside other people doing the same thing. That's the whole deal.

For you if

  • You want to learn to build, for yourself, your business, or your clients
  • You can commit one weekend and show up live
  • You can describe what you want in plain English. That's all Claude Code needs
  • You'd rather own your tools than rent someone else's
  • You want to ship something real, not watch another tutorial

Not for you if

  • You're not willing to show up for three live days
  • You're looking for a coding course. We teach shipping, not syntax
Nº 09 The deal

Become someone who ships.

No spam. One email when the dates are set.

Everything included
  • All live sessions + help desk recorded in your cohort space
  • The starter template, prompt library & every checklist
  • A free month of Zeakat Pro (500 credits)
  • Private challenge channel in the Discord

Show up and ship a live app by the end of the weekend, and your ticket comes back as credit toward RichUx Academy or a Zeakat subscription, whatever you do next. Do the pre-flight, come to all three sessions, get to a real URL, and the ticket effectively pays for itself. The only way to lose is to not show up.

Nº 10 From the Trustpilot wall
"

It's not recycled internet advice. The program is actively evolving to incorporate AI and Claude Code into agency workflows… Rich himself is sharp, responsive, and honest.

"Before joining, building a website and presenting it felt impossible, coming from decades in a non-marketing background. Now I can sell to real businesses and improve their bottom line immediately."

"Just seeing the organic content and learning about the idea of OPMA got me my first client. It is very worth it."

Nº 11 Every hesitation, answered

Questions you should ask.

Do I need to know how to code?
No. Claude Code writes the code. You direct it the way you'd brief a contractor. If you can describe what you want clearly, you're qualified. That's the whole premise: your skill is the brief, not the syntax.
What will I actually build?
You'll choose from a constrained menu of proven app shapes (tools, calculators, directories, lead-magnets for a service), each scoped to be live in a weekend. The constraint is the feature: it's what gets you to a real URL by day two instead of a half-finished dream by month six.
I don't have an app idea, and I don't want to run a SaaS.
Good. You're not here to become a founder. You're here to become someone who ships, and the app is the rep. Day 1 hands you a menu of proven shapes and we scope yours down to something that's live in a weekend. What it earns is your business. What it proves, and what you can do with the skill afterward (including for the clients you already have), is the point.
What does it cost beyond $47?
A Claude subscription for Claude Code (~$20/mo, cancel anytime) and free-tier hosting. Total honest cost of the week: under $70. No surprise tools, no required upsells to finish.
I have a job and kids. Realistically?
Around seven live hours across one weekend, with recordings landing same-day. Building around a full life isn't the obstacle. It's literally the skill you're here to learn.
What happens after the three days?
You'll have options, and we'll show you all of them on the final day, including how grads keep going. No obligation. The $47 stands alone, and you keep everything you built.

Three days. A live app with your name on it, or another tab you closed.

Stop bookmarking tools. Start building your own.
