Founding Cohort 01 · 14 to 25 September · 50 seats

Build an AI workforceyou actually own.

Six live sessions over two weeks. You leave with your business encoded, your first AI department running real work, and a SkillTree that lights up only when a job gets done. Files on your machine. Yours forever.

You bought the AI subscription. You wrote a few prompts. And you still do almost everything by hand.

The problem was never the model. Nobody has shown you the full list of jobs it can already do, handed you the files that do them, or stood next to you while you got them running. That is this cohort. You are not bad at AI. You are missing the system under the tools.

The worldview

Human companies vs agent companies.

A human company

Re-explains itself every day.

  • Every new hire, every freelancer, every chat window starts from zero.
  • The founder is the memory, the manager and the bottleneck.
  • AI is a tab you paste into. It forgets you the moment you close it.
  • Growth means hiring another person to re-explain things to.
An agent company

Is encoded once.

  • What you sell, who buys, how you sound, how the work gets done, written into files every agent reads first.
  • Agents do the jobs. Humans approve the sends, read the ledger and decide what gets built next.
  • Every department you add inherits the same brain. Train the workforce once.
  • Growth means deploying the next department, not the next hire.

You do not need to replace your team to run one. You need one department that works, then the next. That is what these two weeks are for.

Your AI workforce

This is your operation a few months from now.

One AI workforce, encoded once on how your business actually runs. Specialist agents handle outreach, content, delivery and admin in the background, and nothing goes out without you saying so. You build the first department live in the cohort. Every one after inherits the same brain.

You pick your first department in Session 1. Outreach is lit here because 48% of audited businesses named it the bottleneck. Yours might be content, delivery or admin. Every department after the first deploys onto the business you already encoded.

Share of respondents naming each pain. Self-reported by respondents.

Half of them are the whole workforce. Most are agencies, SaaS founders and consultants. They put a median $100k a year on the work they would hand to agents if they knew where to start. If you sell a service, make content, or run a small team, and you are tired of being every department, this is built for you.

The whole stack

  • A laptop. Mac or Windows.
  • A Claude account. About $20 a month, paid to Anthropic, not us.
  • Two hours, three times a week, for two weeks.
  • No engineer. No code. You open a terminal once, paste what we tell you, and talk.
What you walk out with

A workforce. Not a subscription.

01

20 OS tools

CRM, Creator, Billing, Finance, Project Management, Second Brain and more, each with its own local dashboard. Deploy the one your bottleneck needs, then the next.

02

5 encoded workspaces

Complete agent companies to learn from and build on: growth, YouTube, LinkedIn, clipping and service operations, fully encoded end to end.

03

200+ pre-installed skills

Proposal writer, lead sourcer, carousel designer, invoicing, follow-ups and more. Ready to run on your business the day you install.

04

SkillTree business mapping

The map of your agent company: your departments, roles and workflows, built from your own business. A node lights when the job actually ran. Not installed. Earned.

05

6 live sessions, recorded

Two weeks, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 14 to 25 September. Build your first department live, recordings the same day.

06

Community and recordings

Private community and WhatsApp group, every session recording, and 90 days of bi-weekly support after demo day. Files on your machine, yours forever.

It interviews your business, then knows it.

This is the part nobody else gives you. When you install SkillTree, Claude interviews your business and builds your second brain, the company knowledge base.

Then every agent plugs into that brain. They know your offers, your clients, your voice. That is the difference between an AI org that knows your company and a folder of generic prompts.

1

Install in minutes

One double-click installer sets everything up, or drop the folder into Claude Code.

2

The interview

Claude asks about your offers, clients, and voice. Type it or voice-note it for as long as you want.

3

Your second brain is built

Everything you said becomes your company knowledge base, the brain at the center of the tree.

4

Your AI org is live

Every agent plugs into your second brain and does its job in your company's context, with new drops landing every month.

And the dashboards they run on.

Every agent reports up. Six command centers show the whole operation, pipeline to finance, exactly as the executive sees it. This is the real thing, live below.

The two weeks

Six sessions. One department, end to end.

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 1 to 3 PM Eastern. Live, recorded the same day.

Session 01Mon 14 Sep

Foundations

Human companies vs agent companies. Why agents work from the terminal, not the chat box. Watch a finished agent company run live. Install SkillTree in one double-click, get your business-mapping repo, and let the onboarding interview build your company context from your own files. Pick your department.

You leave with: SkillTree installed, your context built, your department chosen, and homework: the ten things it will do for you.
Session 02Wed 16 Sep

Your workspace

Set up the editor (Mac or Windows) and GitHub. Unlock the department library. Choose your runtime. Learn what the agent reads first and what lives where. Turn your ten things into the roles and skills of your department.

You leave with: both repos open, the library unlocked, your department scaffolded.
Session 03Fri 18 Sep

Encode your business

Drag in your site, a proposal, your pricing, a call transcript, the work you already do by hand. The system reads it, drafts your company files, reads them back and asks what it got wrong. Your department learns from your real examples.

You leave with: your business encoded and versioned, first real run logged.
Session 04Mon 21 Sep

Deploy your department

Your department running end to end in the terminal. See it on your SkillTree. Put a dashboard on it, connect your real tools (CRM, inbox, calendar, sheets), and click through your own data. This is the session people talk about.

You leave with: a department running on your machine, on your data, on your tools.
Session 05Wed 23 Sep

Put it on a clock

Turn the repeat work into workflows. Schedule them. Assign jobs from your phone, approve them in the morning. Agents draft, you send. Work starts running while you are not looking.

You leave with: three to five jobs on a schedule, ten or more lit nodes.
Session 06Fri 25 Sep

Demo day

Show your department running end to end. We stress-test it live and fix what breaks. Then you learn exactly how to do the next department yourself.

You leave with: a working department, or the guarantee applies.

Webinar before we start: Human companies vs agent companies, date announced to the list. Private community and WhatsApp group throughout. 90 days of bi-weekly support after.

Who teaches it

Learn it from the founder companies pay to build it.

Ahmed Alassafi, founder and CEO of Altari

Ahmed Alassafi

Founder & CEO, Altari
Creator of SkillTree
Previously at Relevance AI, Deel & Red Bull

Ahmed runs Altari, the AI growth partner shipping production AI systems for companies like Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Deel and PPS. Every engagement starts the same way the cohort does: audit how the business runs, put a number on what each process costs in hours and dollars, rank what to automate by payback, then build. The cohort is that method, taught live, on your business.

Behind the work: 600+ businesses consulted, close to 10,000 people trained to build with AI (including teams at AWS), and systems shipped across dozens of industries on several continents. Before Altari he was a certified expert and founding GTM at Relevance AI, the AI workforce platform, after two years in sales at Deel finishing well over target. He built SkillTree in public in front of 66k+ people, and 14,000+ businesses have taken its audit.

600+ businesses consulted ~10,000 people trained 14,000+ audits taken 66k+ watching the build

On every session and the webinar, live. What worked, what broke, and what he leaves alone.

Client reviews

What those companies say.

The same method the cohort teaches, delivered by Altari for its clients. In their words.

“Twelve years of points knowledge lived in my head. Now it lives in one company brain the whole team can ask. It answers from our own files, turns call notes into finished follow-ups, and runs 24/7 without us touching it.”
Steve HuiFounder · The Flights Club
“Five years of institutional knowledge and project history lived in files we had to manually search. Now it’s a single system the whole practice draws on. It answers from our own work, holds our standards, and never forgets a thing.”
Brett Roake-BarefootPrincipal · Ministry of Architecture + Interiors
“As an executive recruiting firm, we needed outbound that felt strategic and relationship-driven. Altari built us an AI-driven outreach engine, adaptive and repeatable. In the pilot, we built real pipeline and closed a new client.”
Sarah TelgarskyPrincipal & Sales Lead · Impact Partners
“Lead research & qualification used to manually take hours each day, and now it’s done in the background. Altari has completely changed how we do this. Research quality is better too, less errors.”
Nick RooseSales Manager · Deel
“Our team was buried in spreadsheets and manual campaign matching. Now, Altari handles everything from pairing creators to repurposing content that actually performs. Engagement rates have never been higher.”
Paul Ryan JonesFounder & CEO · Oriri Marketing
“We had revenue leaking across accounting, invoicing, and our CRM, with no clear view of it. Altari built dashboards that surface it in real time and automated the reconciliation behind them. We’ve recovered over $100k that was quietly slipping through the cracks.”
Divjot SahniDirector · EZYE Consulting Services

Questions

Read this first.

Do I need to be technical?+
No. You need to open a terminal once, paste what we tell you, and talk. The installer does the rest.
Mac or Windows?+
Both.
Is this replacing my team?+
No. It is giving you departments you do not have. Agents do the jobs, you manage them. Nothing is sent, posted or paid without a human saying so.
What do I actually own?+
The files. The kit, your company files, your departments, your roles, your map. They stay on your machine after the cohort and after the 12 months. Access to the department library, updates and support run for 12 months and can be renewed directly.
Is this a subscription?+
No. One payment for the cohort. The only recurring cost is your Claude account.
What if I miss a session?+
Recorded the same day. Missing sessions does void the build guarantee.
Why not just hire Altari to build it?+
You can. That is the agency, it is done for you, and it starts at five figures. The cohort exists so you can build your first department yourself, with Ahmed live, at a fraction of that. Same method, your hands on the files.
Can I bring my team?+
This cohort is built for one person: you, on your machine. Your files live in a private repo, so a teammate can be added later. If you need a shared, multi-user setup for a whole company, that is what the agency does. Ask us.

Your move. Build the workforce.
