Stop learning about AI.
Start building with it.
In two focused days, we sit alongside you, understand your business, and build a working AI-powered product together. You walk out with an MVP — not a certificate, not a roadmap.
A real, functional solution you own and understand.
You've explored the tools.
You're still stuck.
Business owners are drowning in AI options. The courses are generic. The tools are powerful but disconnected from your actual processes.
Hiring an agency leaves you dependent and in the dark. There's a gap between "I know AI exists" and "I have a working AI product in my business."
Generic AI courses
They teach you the basics everyone already knows. You leave with homework, not a product.
Off-the-shelf tools
ChatGPT, Claude, Zapier — powerful, but you're left alone to figure out how they fit your workflow.
Agency builds
They build it for you, hand over a black box, and charge you every time something breaks.
You own it.
No subscriptions to pay.
Get away from agencies that want to create recurring revenue.
Build it, control it, and manage it.
Most agencies and platforms keep you locked in. They build something you can't touch, charge you every month to keep it running, and bill you again every time you need a change. AI by Design is different — everything we build with you is yours to own, operate, and modify from day one.
- Full source code delivered at the end of every session
- No ongoing retainer or maintenance fees
- No platform lock-in — runs on tools you control
- Modify, extend, or hand it to any developer
- We teach you how it works, so you're never dependent on us
Two days.
One working product.
Our intensive format is designed around one principle:
You leave with something functional, not more items to add to your to-do list.
Discovery Call
We have a 30-minute call to understand your business, your goals, and what you want to build. We'll confirm you're a good fit and outline what's achievable in two days.
Day One: Understand & Design
We dive deep into your workflow and business context. We teach you the relevant AI fundamentals — not generic theory, but exactly what you need to build your specific solution. Together we design the architecture.
Day Two: Build & Launch
We build your MVP together, hands-on. You're at the keyboard — we're guiding every step. By the end of Day Two, you have a working product deployed and a clear understanding of how to continue building.
You Own It
You leave with the code, the architecture, and the knowledge. Optionally, our team is available for ongoing support at AUD $300/hr — but you'll be equipped to continue independently.
- Private workspace for 2 days
- Unlimited coffee, lunch & snacks
- Up to 2 people trained
- Full MVP delivered & deployed
- Architecture documentation
- Post-session Q&A (30 mins)
Paid subscriptions to any third-party tools required for your specific build (e.g., OpenAI API, cloud hosting). We'll advise on the most cost-effective options.
Real products.
Built in 48 hours.
These are not mockups or prototypes.
They are live, deployed applications built alongside our clients.
Next Level Property Engine
A full-stack property management platform built in 48 hours
The client needed a platform to connect tenants, landlords, agents, and tradespeople in a fair, transparent way. In two days, we built a complete web application with a built-in compliance hub, an AI messaging mediator, a property listing system, and full dashboard management for every stakeholder.
ScaleUp One
On-site IT engineer management platform built in 48 hours
An IT managed services company needed to manage on-site engineers in real time. We built a complete field operations platform with live ETA tracking, ticket management, parts inventory, rosters, time billing, and integrations with Xero, remote access tools, and advanced dispatch workflow automations.
You're not getting a template.
You're getting a solution built around you.
Every AI by Design engagement is shaped around your specific business, workflow, customer, and use case. We work with you 1-on-1 to understand what you are trying to build, where the real opportunities are, and how AI can support your goals without forcing you into a one-size-fits-all system.
Antonia
Co-Founder & Client Experience Lead
Antonia bridges the gap between what business owners need, what customers actually care about, and what technology can deliver. She leads every client engagement with a focus on clarity, relevance, and practical outcomes — making sure the solution being built is not just impressive, but genuinely useful.
As Google's official partner in training SMEs in Indonesia to use Gemini, she brings 20+ years of marketing experience and a deep customer empathy lens to every engagement. The result is an AI product built around what customers actually need, not assumptions.
Trevor
Co-Founder & Technical Lead
Trevor is the founder of both vCloud Group and The Tech Support Experts, and has built and scaled technology businesses across multiple industries. With 40+ years in software, database and website development, and cloud computing, Trevor brings enterprise-grade architecture thinking to every SMB challenge.
Trevor's strength lies in bridging the gap between complex technical systems and real-world business needs. He understands that SMBs require solutions that are robust, scalable, and secure, without unnecessary complexity.
Vicki
Client Partner & AI Framework Advisor
Vicki started as a SME owner running a property cleaning services management business, she identified an opportunity to make the property market fairer for tenants and landlords alike, and built Next Level Property Engine with us.
Her approach, using intensive AI-driven brainstorming, rapid framework testing, and iterative building, is exactly the mindset we look for in every client.
Vicki is now part of the AiD team, and is the first step to getting your business system built following her process.
Transparent pricing.
No surprises.
Compare this to hiring an agency (AUD $15,000–75,000+ for a custom build) or attending a generic AI course (AUD $500–2,000 with no product to show for it).
