Don't just learn AI.
Ship with it.

The AI studio residency where you build real products — not exercise apps. 10 weeks with a working studio team. Leave with live products, a professional portfolio, and proof that you can build.

Other programs give you certificates.
We give you proof.

Every bootcamp teaches you skills. None of them let you ship real products with a real studio team. That's the gap. We fill it.

Learn Fundamentals

AI literacy, prompt engineering, frontend and full-stack development using AI tools. Not just “how to use ChatGPT” — how to build production software with AI.

Not this: “Watch 40 hours of video lectures and pass a multiple choice test.”
🔨

Build Real Products

Get assigned to a Cynea studio product team. Ship features on live projects under mentorship from studio leads. Daily standups, sprint planning, code reviews.

Not this: “Build a to-do app clone that nobody will ever see or use.”
📦

Leave with Proof

Live products with your attribution. A professional portfolio case study. A personal reference letter. Priority access to paid contract work.

Not this: “A PDF certificate and a handshake.”

10 weeks, three phases,
one goal: ship.

Front-loaded with fundamentals. Back-loaded with real production work. Every phase builds toward live products in your portfolio.

Weeks 1–3

Foundations

AI literacy, prompt engineering, frontend development, full-stack basics. By week 3, you can independently build and deploy a web application.

  • How AI models work (and don't)
  • Build with Cursor, Claude, v0
  • HTML/CSS/JS → React → Next.js
  • APIs, databases, authentication
  • AI-assisted debugging
Weeks 4–7

Build Sprint

Join a Cynea product team. Ship features on real projects under mentorship from studio leads who've shipped products used by thousands.

  • Assigned to a real product team
  • Two 2-week sprints
  • Daily standups & code reviews
  • Ship to production
  • Feature ownership
Weeks 8–10

Capstone

Polish your work. Build your portfolio case study with our design team. Present at Demo Day to the tech community, employers, and partners.

  • Product polish & QA
  • Portfolio case study
  • Personal brand & LinkedIn
  • Demo Day presentation
  • Community launch

Builders come from everywhere.

No coding experience required. What matters: you're motivated to build, you can commit 10 weeks, and you have a laptop and internet. Fully remote across UK, US, and Europe.

Recent Graduates

You have a degree but no portfolio. Employers want proof you can build — not just that you attended classes. This gives you that proof, fast.

🔄

Career Changers

You're in marketing, finance, or operations — but you want to build technology. AI tools have lowered the barrier. We'll get you across it.

💻

Developers

You can code, but AI is changing the game. Learn to build 10x faster with AI tools and add real studio experience to your portfolio.

The same tools professional builders use every day.

You won't just learn about them. You'll ship production code with them.

The Cynea Builder Package.

Every graduate receives these. Not promises — deliverables.

Live Product Attribution

Your name credited on real, shipped products. Not exercise apps — actual products used by real people, linked from your portfolio.

Professional Case Study

A polished portfolio case study co-written with Cynea's design team. Problem → Process → Result — the way hiring managers want to see it.

Personal Reference Letter

A personalized letter from studio leads assessing your skills, work ethic, and contribution. Not a template — a genuine endorsement.

Priority for Paid Work

Proven builders get first access to paid contract opportunities on future Cynea projects. The program is your audition for ongoing work.

Built by a studio that ships.

Cynea isn't run by educators. It's run by builders. Our studio leads ship products every day. You'll learn directly from people who do the work — not people who teach about it.
