We didn’t test this on strangers. We ran it on ourselves.
Lasha Gorgoshidze trained the Axel team on AI — not in a seminar, but across real product work. The result: 5+ products built and shipped with AI at the core, in a single week. We learned what sticks and what gets forgotten by Friday.
Axel is an angel investor network where tech is real — not buzzword-level, but working-product level. This training is how we operate internally. We built this offering to share what we know with teams that want the same shift.
Products built with AI — in 1 week
Trainer. Lasha, who built all of it with us
Max cohort size — intentionally small
Two hands-on days
Build with Claude on your laptop, on your actual work.
Your tools, your tasks
We rebuild your real workflows, not generic demos.
A month of follow-up
WhatsApp group, weekly tips, and remote support for everyone.
Before & after
Short surveys now and later, so change is visible.
Not awareness. Skill.
Most AI training is a one-hour session followed by silence. This program is built to change how the team actually works — across two facilitated days and the month that follows. Here’s why it sticks.
Hands-on from hour one
Laptops open throughout. Claude installed live. First real prompt inside the first session — no lecture-then-lab.
Built around the team's real work
Every exercise uses tasks pulled from the intake. Generic demos don't transfer; your own workflows do.
Measured end-to-end
Self-assessments before and after, plus a capstone where each participant demonstrates one workflow they'll keep using. Leadership sees the aggregate shift.
What changes — and how you see it.
The program targets specific, measurable shifts. Numbers below are our baseline expectation for a group of 15 at Arci’s level of prior AI exposure. Pre/post data confirms what actually happened.
For leadership, within 4 weeks
- Aggregate pre/post report (individual answers stay private)
- Capstone recordings, opt-in per participant
- Written recommendation: where AI fits in Arci's workflows, where it doesn't, and what to try next
- Weekly-usage adoption rate for the cohort
Numbers are targets from prior cohorts and Arci’s intake-adjusted baseline. We report the actual delta after Week 4.
How it runs
- Now
Intake survey
2 minutes. Tell us about your role, your AI comfort, and what you'd like to get out of this.
- Day 1 & 2
The two days
On-site or off-site. Setup and first use → practical workflows with your own tasks → a capstone where each person walks through one workflow they'll actually use.
- Weeks 1–4
The month after
Small WhatsApp group with updates tailored to your level. Remote support open to every participant. No mandatory check-ins.
