This summer, build your own AI staff.
Eight live sessions. Two operators. You build a working staff of AI employees that does your real work, then learn to lead the change at your company before the year resets. Beginner or advanced. You leave with it running.
Take your seatTaught by John Brewton and Wessal Khader, operators who run real companies, not professors or coders. Built across Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Summer cohort kicks off July 21, 2026.
AI is changing what your job requires. Most operators are bluffing.
The people who can direct it are moving faster and getting noticed for it. The people who cannot are starting to feel it in meetings they used to lead.
Most operators are bluffing. They open the tools, paste in a prompt, get something generic back, and close the tab. They tell themselves they will learn it properly later.
Later keeps moving. Q4 planning lands. The new hire already builds this way. The gap stops being a skill gap and starts being a career gap.
You have one clean window before the fall. The summer. Before the kids go back to school. Before the calendar fills and the year gets away from you. A few focused weeks is all it takes to go from watching AI to operating it.
This is the summer of AI fluency. This is where you begin.
Fluency is not something you watch. It is something you build.
You do not get fluent by reading threads or saving videos you never reopen. You get fluent by building real tools, on your real work, with people who already operate this way standing next to you.
You do not need to be technical. You do not need to write code. You do not need a developer. You need two operators who do this every day, a clear sequence, and a room that keeps you moving.
That is Oper(AI)te. Not a course you watch. A build you finish.
You walk out with a staff of AI employees that do real work for you.
You open a blank chat and hope. You write the same emails, reports, and updates by hand. When you do use AI, you sound like everyone else, and people can tell.
You have a built AI staff. One employee that writes in your voice. One that runs your research. One that preps your meetings and builds your decks. One built for the part of your job only you know.
This is the difference between using AI and operating it.
A week, once you are fluent.
Three weeks from now, in the actual job
Eight live sessions, a working room, and a staff you keep.
Six Live Build Sessions
- Beginner or advanced, you build at your own level
- Real answers in the room, not a library you watch alone
- Every session ends with something working that you keep
- Miss one and the recording and build file are in Slack
Two Operator Build Labs
- Bring whatever is stuck or specific to your role
- We work it on screen with you until it runs
- Where the builds stop being demos and become yours
- Two full sessions of get-it-done time with both of us
The Private Oper(AI)te Slack
- Direct access to John and Wessal for the full course
- Every recording, replay, and build file in one place
- A working channel beside operators at your level
- Drop in between meetings, after hours, or from your phone
An AI Staff That Does Your Work
- AI that writes in your voice and runs your research
- Preps your meetings and builds your decks
- Built around your real role, yours to keep
- The skill compounds. Build a new one any time
We cut everything you do not need.
No history of the models. No theory you will never use. No nice-to-knows.
Every session is only the part you actually use, implement, and execute, in the most concise form we can teach it. You leave each one with a real change in how you work. Less time on the repeatable. Higher quality output. More done in the same day.
The agents are not off the shelf. They are not the generic ones everyone else runs. We build each one around your work, your inputs, and the calls you actually make. You leave knowing exactly how it works, so you change it yourself. When the week shifts, you update the agent in minutes. Every time you run it, it gets sharper.
Foundation: Get Fluent Fast
Your first session removes the confusion. You get the language, the platforms, and the mental model operators actually use, plus the AI Fluency Glossary so every term clicks. No filler. You leave already building.
Your Voice Employee, and Your Brand
This is the complete build, not the one-hour version. If you came to the free class, you built the starter. Here you train it on your real writing, build separate registers for email, posts, memos, and executive updates, add a self-audit so it catches its own misses, and wire it into your daily workflow so it produces at volume. It writes like you so well that no one can tell you used it. Then we go further. You build your own visual branding skill, so everything you make from here looks like a full design team touched it before you sent it. Meeting notes, client presentations, proposals, posts. This is how John makes all of his content, and how everything you are looking at right now, these pages and our emails, was built. In seconds, not hours, with no Canva and no manual design work. The days of making it look good yourself are over.
Your Research Employee
Build an AI that researches, synthesizes, and briefs you on anything. Market reads, competitor checks, and decision prep, done in minutes instead of hours. You bring the questions you answer at work. It learns to answer them.
Your Meetings and Presentations Employee
Build an AI that preps your meetings, drafts your decks, and turns your thinking into clean presentations you would actually send. You stop starting from a blank slide.
Your Operator's Choice Employee
This one is yours. The cohort decides what we build, based on who takes their seat. You bring the real problem from your own role. We design and build the employee for it, live, in the room, together. The most fun session, and the one no other course can copy, because it is built around the people who showed up.
Fluency and Leading the Change
You leave able to lead this, not just use it. How to bring AI into your team, how to talk about it with authority, and how to turn this skill into real market value and standing at your company.
Operator Build Labs
On top of the six builds, two live, technical, get-it-done sessions with both of us. You bring whatever is stuck or specific to you. We build it with you on screen until it works. No one leaves a session with a half-finished employee.
Plus one more session we are not announcing here. Cohort members will find it on the calendar.
- A staff of AI employees, built around your role and yours to keep
- An employee that writes in your voice
- A visual branding skill that makes everything you create look professionally designed
- A research and analysis workflow that briefs you in minutes
- A meetings and presentations employee
- The AI Fluency Glossary and platform playbook
- Every session recording and build file in Slack
- The skill to build the next ten on your own
Two operators. Zero theory.
You are not learning from people who studied this. You are building with operators who run companies on it.
Economist, then operator. Harvard and Chicago trained, then a decade inside a B2B industrial company, from the sourcing desk to CEO. He grew it from $27.5M to $75M and sold it in 2021. Today he runs two AI-native companies and builds AI systems for operators in engagements that run $50,000 to $250,000. In this room, he leads every build on screen, step by step. You do not need to write code. You build alongside him in real time.
Four-time entrepreneur with 20+ years building and exiting companies, most recently a high eight-figure SaaS exit. She has run teams of hundreds and built award-winning, best-in-class cultures everywhere she has led, the direct result of the values and ethics she operates by. In this room, she leads the human side. She translates every build into plain operator language and makes sure you walk out using it, leading with it, and turning it into standing at your company.
You get John's build and Wessal's follow-through in the same room. Neither one works as well alone.
We teach across every major platform.
Oper(AI)te does not bet on a single tool. You learn to work across the major AI platforms and move between them as the field shifts.
Everything you get when you take your seat.
A single AI consultant builds one system for you and bills $10,000 and up. Oper(AI)te puts both operators in the room with you, teaches you to build the whole staff yourself, and sends you out able to build again for anything that comes next.
One price. Paid in full.
One payment, paid in full at enrollment. All sales are final. You are buying a live seat in a small room with two operators, and that seat is held for you.
Take your seatWhat operators say about working with John.
John doesn't give you advice. He gives you clarity. Every sentence landed. Five insights. All actionable. No filler.
He shows up, pays attention, and is an active listener. He has the curiosity and business chops to help you develop a promising operating strategy. Layer on a very sophisticated understanding of how the world works at the tech and AI level, and you have an advisor you look forward to speaking with, because every conversation advances your agenda.
There are a lot of people who can talk a big game, but few can back it up like John. A powerhouse operations leader with a track record scaling a firm from $25M to $75M.

This is built for operators.
For you if
- You are an employed manager, director, or executive who wants to direct AI in your role this year
- You are an owner-operator or founder who runs lean and wants real leverage
- You are non-technical and ready to build, not just watch
- You want to be the most capable operator in the room by fall
Not for you if
- You want to watch videos and never build
- You want a done-for-you service you stay out of
- You are an engineer looking for deep model architecture. This is operator fluency, not machine learning.
Bringing a team instead of yourself?
The cohort makes one operator fluent. This makes your whole company fluent, together.
The same method John runs in his $50,000 to $250,000 advisory engagements, scaled to your group. No slide deck, no logins. We build live with your people, on their real work, until they are operating with AI instead of guessing at it.
- Built on your tools and your actual workflows, in the room with you
- For leadership teams, sales, operations, finance, and professional services firms
- The cost of staying unfluent shows up every week, on every desk
Half-day
One team or function. Built around your highest-friction work.
Full-day
Deeper build across roles. Agents running, not notes.
Multi-day
Larger groups or multiple departments, staged live.
Virtual or in person
We come to you, or run it live on screen.
