Apply for the Claude Code Program

A new group starts the first Monday of every month. We confirm fit on a free 30-minute intro call before any money moves.

New group every month

Next start: November 2, 2026

Programs start on the first Monday of every month. Apply any time, we confirm fit on a free 30-minute call, and you join the next start date.

Our guarantee

Launch your app in 8 weeks, or we keep coaching free until you do, up to one extra month.

No paperwork. We keep meeting with you weekly at zero extra cost until your app is live for real customers.

We do this together. You show up to your sessions, try what we suggest between calls, and tell us when you're stuck. We check in every two weeks so no one drifts quietly. If life happens, we pause and pick up where you left off.

How the program runs, week by week

Eight weeks for a small product to go live, twelve weeks for a medium one to go live and harden. Every group starts on the first Monday of a month and ends with a live app real customers can pay for, plus the habit and setup to keep shipping on your own.

  1. Weeks 1 to 2
    360 review and plan

    We review what you have (or what you want to build), produce a written 360 plan covering security, function, and legal data handling, and you leave week 2 with a one-page roadmap. You also have Claude Code installed and your first changes saved.

  2. Weeks 3 to 6
    Build with weekly coaching

    You drive Claude Code (or the AI tool you prefer). We coach weekly. In 1:1 + Build + Deploy we also review every update you make, and we sit side by side on the trickiest features. By week 6 your app handles real users on a private test link.

  3. Weeks 7 to 8
    Going live and hand-off

    We take your app live with you, set up hosting, your domain, automatic backups, and alerts when something breaks, and lock in the habits in your code so the same bug never ships twice. You ship the next feature without us.

What happens after you submit

  1. 1

    Confirmation email, within one business day

    Zoho automation sends you a confirmation with the cohort start date and a link to schedule the 30-minute intro call. If you do not see it, check your spam folder and search for 'IB Group'.

  2. 2

    30-minute intro call (free)

    We confirm fit. You confirm fit. No money moves on this call. If we are not the right match for your project we will tell you, and we will recommend who is.

  3. 3

    Payment is direct, after the intro call

    Bank transfer or Wise. No Upwork escrow on this product. You pay the first month, you start on the next monthly start date, and you can cancel after any month with no penalty.

  4. 4

    Kickoff: the first Monday of the month

    First weekly call on the calendar, Slack channel open, your AI coding setup installed in your code within the first 48 hours. Your seat is held for 5 business days from application.

Common questions before you apply

What if you decide we are not a fit?

We tell you on the 30-minute intro call. Nothing moves to payment. We will also recommend an engineer or agency that fits your situation better, so the call is never wasted time.

What if my product is bigger than 2 months?

We continue beyond month 2 at the same monthly rate. You keep cancelling at the end of any month. Most products that need a third month are heavy on integrations rather than core scope.

Can I switch from Class to 1:1 mid-cohort?

Yes. You pay the difference for the months you spend in 1:1 and we add the missing deploy and system-install scope to your remaining weeks. The reverse (1:1 to Class) only works at month boundaries because the cohort group seats are sized in advance.

What if I need to drop out mid-program?

Cancel at the end of any month. The setup we installed in your code is yours to keep. You also keep every artefact we produced together: the end-to-end review document, the launch scripts, and your operational runbook.

When do I start?

On the first Monday of the month after your intro call and first payment. If that date is less than 5 days away, you join the following month. Your price stays the same for as long as you stay in the program.
