Friday, August 14, 2026 · 1 to 4pm plus a hosted happy hour · Cupertino

You leave with

  • One automation running on your own Claude Desktop, built by you
  • Your human read: what to automate, and what to protect
  • The skill to build your next one without us
  • A written plan to drop it into your Monday
The uncomfortable data

Everyone is buying AI. Almost nobody is winning with it.

The technology is rarely the problem. What goes wrong is that people automate the wrong things. They hand AI the work that lights them up, stay buried in the work that grinds them down, and call it progress. You automate your genius by accident, then get stuck doing what drains you, faster.

95%of enterprise AI pilots return nothing. Not underwhelming. Zero. (MIT, 2025)
55%of employers regret their AI-driven layoffs. 73% did not come out ahead financially. (Orgvue / Forrester / Careerminds)
88%of the heaviest AI users report more burnout. 77% say AI added to their workload. (Upwork)

Nobody handed you a map of what to keep and what to give away. So you guessed. The odds on that guess are 5%.

The turn

What if you knew, before you built anything, exactly what to automate and what to protect?

We do not start with the technology. We start with you. Before you touch Claude Desktop, HumanOp®'s patented human read shows you two lists: the work that feeds you, and the work that drains you. Then you build. You take one task off the drains-you list and turn it into a working automation, in the room, that afternoon. That is the dual multiplier: a real AI system that gives you hours back, and the clarity to spend those hours on what only you can do.

The payoff

You walk out with working assets.

01

One automation, live

A real workflow running on your own Claude Desktop, built by your own hands. It works before you leave the room, and it does real work on Monday.

02

Your human read

A clear map of where your value actually comes from, so you never hand a machine the work that makes you, you.

03

The skill, not just the system

Most workshops hand you one automation and leave you none the wiser about how it was built. You leave here able to build the next one yourself, and the one after that.

Why this is different

The best AI does the opposite of what you do best.

The Human Multiplier · HumanOp®

Know what to protect

The patented read tells you what to keep firmly in human hands, so you multiply your genius instead of automating it away.

One gives you hours back. The other makes sure you spend them on the work only you can do.

The kind of thing you leave with

No toy demos. You build one of these, on your own task, with your own data.

The weekly report you dreadDrafted for you from your own notes and dashboards, in your format, every week.
An inbox triage agentReads, sorts, and drafts replies in your voice, so you clear the queue in minutes.
Meeting notes that file themselvesTurned into CRM updates and follow-up tasks without you touching a keyboard.
The recurring doc you rewrite from scratchA first-pass draft waiting for you, every time, built from your source material.

On the day, we pick the one that drains you most. You leave with that one running.

The afternoon

Three hours. One working system.

1:00The Read. Your HumanOp® assessment. Your genius and your drains, on the table, in plain language. Nobody else does this.
1:45Pick the target. Choose the one task you would most love to never do again. We scope it so you can finish it today.
2:15Build it live. You drive, on your own Claude Desktop, and we sit beside you to keep you unstuck.
3:15Ship and demo. It runs, you watch it work, and you show it to the room. This is the moment the whole day is built around.
3:40Integration plan. Map how this lives in your real week, and how you build the next one solo.
4:00Happy hour. Proper cocktails and a room full of people who just shipped something together.

The live build

Founder of Omnio AI and an Anthropic Partner. Fifteen years as a Product Manager at Google, MBA from Carnegie Mellon. Teaches leaders to build real, working automations, not slideware, and to keep building after the room clears.

An equal collaboration. Two multipliers, one afternoon.

Before you say yes

Run the math yourself.

A half day of your time is not free, and $795 is real money. So do not take our word for it. Your time is worth something specific. The task we automate costs you a specific number of hours. Put in your own numbers. If the value does not clearly beat the price, this workshop is not for you, and we would rather you knew that now.We set the defaults on the low side on purpose.

Use your fully loaded cost, roughly 1.5x salary over 2,000 hours. Most Directors and VPs land near $100.
$30,000
in reclaimed time over three years, at your own numbers
$10,000value in year one
28 daysto earn back $795
100hours back, year one

2 hours a week back, on one automation, is worth $30,000 over three years. The seat is $795.

This is the math on one automation. You leave able to build the next one, and the one after that, without us. Every one stacks on this number.

You are deciding whether to put $795 in to take $30,000 out. That is the whole decision.

Your own numbers, figured on three years and 50 working weeks. It keeps running well past that; we just stop the clock early.

You just valued this at $30,000. The seat is $795.
Founding cohort

One seat, everything included.

  • Your full HumanOp® human read, the what-to-automate map
  • A live, hands-on build with expert support
  • One working automation you keep, running on your Claude Desktop
  • The method to build your next ones yourself
  • Your written integration plan

Early bird bonus · reserve by August 1
  • 30 days of build support. A private channel plus one group office-hours call, so your second automation actually gets built.
  • The starter vault. The prompts and templates behind what you build in the room, ready to reuse.
  • Your session recording. So nothing you built walks out the door and gets forgotten.
The ideal room

Bring your team. Two or three people from one company, building side by side. Each person is read separately and builds their own automation, so your team walks out with several systems already running and a shared view of what to automate and what to protect.

$1,950$695per person, for 2 or more from one company
$1,950$795
Single seat, founding rate. Limited to 10 seats. Registration closes August 7. It will not be this low again.
MIT and HBS charge $1,850 to $3,850 for online courses where you build nothing. You leave here with a working system on your own laptop.

Two guarantees. The only risk left is missing your seat.

One: you leave with a working automation, or you pay nothing. If we cannot get one real automation running on your Claude Desktop by the end of the afternoon, your seat is free. And if by 3:15 it is clearly not coming together, we call it, you leave early, and you still get the refund and the drink. We protect your afternoon, not just your money.

Two: even if it runs, you still decide it was worth it. Do the full build, have the drink, and if you do not believe it was worth every dollar, tell us at the happy hour and we refund you in full. We only ask you to decide once you have done the work. We like our odds.

You decide once you have done the work. The only thing left to check is whether you belong in the room.

This room is not for everyone.

This is for you if

  • You are a Director, VP, or exec at a mid-market company
  • You are drowning in manual work a machine should be doing
  • You have tried AI and quietly wondered why your week did not get better
  • You want to leave with something real, not a reading list
  • Bonus: you are bringing 2 or 3 people from your company

This is not for you if

  • You want a theory lecture and a certificate
  • You are hunting for the cheapest AI seminar in town
  • You are not willing to actually build something on the day
  • You believe AI should replace judgment, not sharpen it

Invite-only for a reason. The application protects the room and the guarantee.

Questions leaders ask

No. If you can describe the task that annoys you, you can build the automation that kills it. We handle the technical part. You bring the problem.

It is exactly enough, because we scope it with you and build alongside you. The goal is not a giant system. It is one painful task, gone, today. Small and shipped beats big and theoretical.

Most AI courses teach you about AI and hand you a certificate. You leave here with a working system on your own laptop and the skill to build more. That is a different outcome, and you decide at the happy hour whether it was worth it.

Yes. Do the whole build, have the drink, then decide. If it was not worth every dollar, you get a full refund. The refund kicks in after the happy hour, which tells you how confident we are.

No, and it does not put you in a bucket. It is a patented method for mapping how you specifically create value. You walk out with two concrete lists for your actual job: work to hand to AI, and work to keep in human hands. That map is what stops you from automating the wrong half of your role.

You build on Claude Desktop because it is the fastest path to a working automation in one afternoon. The workflow and the skill transfer to any modern AI tool, and we will tell you honestly what ports directly and what your IT team would replicate on your stack. You build on your own machine, so nothing sensitive leaves your laptop.

Because the guarantee and the room only work if everyone in it is a fit. The application is a two-minute filter, not a hurdle. It keeps tire-kickers out and protects the experience for people who came to build.

Please do. The ideal is two or three people from one company. For teams of two or more it is $695 a person. Teach a friend what you built and bring them to the next cohort at 50% off.

A year from now, this afternoon will look like a bargain.

The leaders who put AI to work now will spend next year on the work no one can do for them. The ones still waiting will spend it busy, buried, and burning out with better tools. August 14 is where you choose.
