Bring AI into how you and your team actually build.
I teach, coach, and advise on shipping with AI — as a product builder who works with models, agents, and the systems around them every day. Invite me to speak, bring me in to train your team, or have me alongside while your startup finds its first real AI bet.
01 · speak
Keynotes, panels, and fireside chats on agentic AI, AI-native product building, and what actually changes for a product team when the agent writes the first draft. Practitioner talks — I bring the demo, not just the deck.
02 · train
Hands-on workshops and 1:1 coaching on building with Claude Code, agents, evals, and orchestration — for PMs, founders, and teams who need to ship with AI rather than talk about it. Half-day primers to multi-week builds, on your stack and your real backlog.
03 · advise
0→1 product strategy, go-to-market, positioning, and early product marketing for AI-first startups — the same work I do with incubator founders, after 10+ years of shipping zero-to-one in SaaS.
Maven · with Hamza Farooq
Build AI-native products with Claude Code — skills, subagents & agent teams.
Six real applications, end to end: CLAUDE.md files that work, reusable skills, specialised subagents, coordinated agent teams, evals for AI output, and a deployable product by the last session.

Build and deploy actual AI agents that drive real business impact.
Find the high-impact use cases, design and evaluate production-ready agents, and learn orchestration, memory, retrieval, and guardrail patterns well enough to lead the initiative yourself.

The same curriculum, tailored to your stack and your team’s actual backlog. We build something you keep — a working agent, an eval harness, a CLAUDE.md your repo deserves — rather than a slide deck you file away.
▶ learn from the conversations
Hallway conversations with the people building the tools you use — 66+ episodes on AI, product, and growth, and a good chunk of what I teach was first worked out on this show.

Aishwarya AshokAI Product Builder · Teaching Agentic AIAug 2026 · 🌐A few product + AI musings I’ve been sitting with lately and wanted to write down: 📌 Systems thinking is more than ever crucial, especially building and working with AI agents. Being able to think in steps, understand every order of operation, and knowing the overall architecture behind, and finally how all of these are interconnected, will get us in the right path with agents. 📌 A lot of product building is going to exist in the boundaries — whatever we call today as loops, graphs, harness, and the next pressing thing that’ll be highlight, all point back to a way boundary can be defined and applied.…see more63 · 18 commentsAishwarya AshokAI Product Builder · Teaching Agentic AIAug 2026 · 🌐Building an ‘agentic system’ is now a task in everybody’s list. It sounds simple: give an agent a goal, some context, and let it work. But while building one inside Rue Des Arts, I realised that the agent itself is only one small part. Crafting the layers around that agent is what makes it work: → A contract/spec that defines what it should do → A harness that helps it do the work → Rubrics (evals) that define what “good” looks like → Memory that carries useful learning forward → Boundaries that protect what must stay true → State that records where the work stands.…see more36 · 1 commentAishwarya AshokAI Product Builder · Teaching Agentic AIAug 2026 · 🌐There’s a special kind of joy that you get when you share what you’ve been building with fellow enthusiasts. Hamza and I recently put together an FDE series with four focused sessions all around what FDE roles are about, how to use context engineering in building prototypes and RAG systems, and system design for agentic AI product building, and we had a phenomenal response with every session. Now that everyone is aware what they could build with AI, I’m glad the discussions were more intentional, and questions that participants had were all around reliable AI systems and how to build and maintain them.…see more46 · 3 commentsAishwarya AshokAI Product Builder · Teaching Agentic AIAug 2026 · 🌐I’ve been playing around with creative AI tools since 2023, and dug a lot into AI filmmaking as well. Ever since I started building agentic AI systems for work, building a creative system around my art project, Rue Des Arts, kept coming up in my mind. In the last 6 months, I’ve had the most joy building layer by layer what constitutes a ground-up e-commerce store (everything from payment gateway to emails is natively built and integrated), mockups engine, guardrails and evals around image generation and performance, and every loops for testing and feature addition.…see more42 · 1 commentAishwarya AshokAI Product Builder · Teaching Agentic AIOct 2024 · 🌐Exploring how tech, creativity, open source come together: I had a great time at Google Developer Groups Chennai last Saturday, talking about the concepts I’m learning — one great reflection is the possibilities the future is opening us up to. Thanks to my fellow panelists who shared a great perspective about open source models, training and deploying LLMs, hardware development, and building a business from India for AI. Thoroughly enjoyed coming up with the deck for Prompts to Pixels and literally screening movies at a conference.…see more289 · 18 commentsI’m a product builder who crossed over from telling product stories to shipping them, and then from shipping products to shipping them with agents. What I teach is what I do the other six days of the week.
