  • You on the cover, in your name
  • Five parts, one per letter of S·T·A·R·T
  • One page of work after every class

Beyond the classes

Three months of classes.Six months of never being alone.

Learning stops when the classes end, unless someone stays beside you. So four things come with the classes.

  • The founders' private WhatsApp community

    100+ founders in one group. Build together, become each other's customers, find partners. Nobody from outside gets in.

  • Sabbir Ahmed's second brain, 24 hours a day, 6 months

    Stuck anywhere? Write it in the group. It sees where you are and tells you the next step right away. It does not stop when the classes end.

  • 12 online support sessions

    They run after the 12 main classes. Bring whatever problem you have and solve it in the session.

  • A playbook made in your name

    Step by step, for your work and your level, in one book.

After you apply, your plan shows what each of these would cost on its own.
