AIRA
The Open Ladder

Every tier. Every price. Before you pay a cent.

The industry's favorite trick is the hidden upsell — a $1k course that springs a $4k tier after you've bought. We publish the entire ladder up front. Start at $38. Ascend only if you want to.

The Honest Guarantee

Ship your first deliverable or get every dollar back — one click, 30 days, no hoops.

We watched the whole industry weaponize refunds (one program makes you send 250 cold emails a day just to qualify to ask). We did the opposite. If AIRA-1 doesn't help you ship your first working AI asset, request a refund from inside your dashboard — one click, 30 days, no questions, no 'complete every lesson first.' We also guarantee the deliverable, never an income number. Anyone promising you guaranteed dollars is lying.

The Anti-Thesis

10 industry sins. 10 guarantees we build.

Drawn from first-party research across 20+ AI programs and thousands of buyer complaints. Each failure became a product mechanic — not a marketing claim.

Recycled content
Free YouTube info repackaged and sold for thousands.
A Living Curriculum — versioned, dated, updated monthly, with frameworks you can't Google.
Refund traps
Refunds engineered to be unclaimable (one program: send 250 cold emails a day to even qualify).
The Honest Guarantee — 30 days, one click, no hoops, no 'finish every lesson first.'
Hidden upsells
A $1k course that springs a surprise $4k 'elite' tier after you've paid.
The Open Ladder — every tier and price published before you spend a dollar.
Income fantasy
'$5,000/month guaranteed' — then no income, no refund.
We guarantee the deliverable (a working AI asset), never an income number. Anyone promising dollars is lying.
Phantom mentorship
'Unlimited 1-on-1' that turns into an overcrowded group call.
A written support SLA: 24/7 AI concierge + a real human within the hour. We publish the response times.
Worthless certificate
A certificate of attendance even the issuers admit nobody respects.
A credential you earn by shipping real work — verifiable by anyone, with a public proof page.
Theory, no building
Lectures and quizzes; you finish having made nothing.
Every lesson ends in a build. You learn by shipping, because that's what actually sticks.
Ghost-town community
$99/month for a dead forum nobody posts in.
Live cohorts, first-week wins, leaderboards and rituals — a room that's actually alive.
Fake proof
Rented mansions, stock screenshots, deepfake testimonials.
A founder who builds real AI companies in public and shows his work. Real proof, or none.
Censored criticism
Complaints deleted; critics banned from the group.
Unfiltered public reviews and an honest 'who this is NOT for.' We'd rather you self-select out.
Radical honesty

Who this is NOT for

We'd rather you self-select out than refund later. If any of these are you, save your $38.

  • People looking for passive income with zero effort — AIRA is build-work, not a lottery ticket.
  • Anyone who wants a guaranteed income number. We guarantee the deliverable; the dollars are on you.
  • Get-rich-quick chasers. The leverage is real, but you still have to do the reps.
  • People who want to watch videos and feel productive without shipping anything.
Straight answers

Every question, answered honestly.

Is this just recycled YouTube content with a price tag?+

No — and we'll prove it. AIRA is a Living Curriculum: every module is versioned and dated, updated monthly as the tools change. You get frameworks, rubrics and worked builds you won't find scattered across free videos. And every lesson ends in something you actually make.

Is the certificate actually worth anything?+

It's worth what you can prove. Most 'certificates' are attendance trophies nobody respects. AIRA is earned only when you submit a real deliverable that passes the rubric — then it's issued with a unique ID and a public verify page anyone can check. It signals you can do the work, because you did.

What if it's not for me? How hard is the refund?+

One click, 30 days, no questions, no hoops. We built the exact opposite of the industry — some programs make you send 250 cold emails a day just to qualify for a refund. If AIRA-1 doesn't help you ship your first AI asset, you get every dollar back from inside your dashboard.

Do I need to know how to code?+

No. AIRA-1 is for complete beginners. By AIRA-4 you'll use agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Replit) that let you ship real software without being an engineer — we teach you exactly how.

I've been burned before. Why trust this one?+

Because the founder builds real AI companies in public and shows his work — no rented mansions, no fake screenshots. We publish an honest 'who this is NOT for,' we don't delete criticism, and we guarantee the deliverable, never a fantasy income number.

How much time does it take?+

AIRA-1 is about 6–8 hours, self-paced, with lifetime access. Most people get their first AI win in the first 60 minutes — that early momentum is by design.

What's the catch with the $38?+

There isn't one. $38 gets you the full AIRA-1 program and your first verifiable credential. Its job is to earn your trust, not our margin. The bigger Pro Accelerator (ranks 2–7) is published openly on the pricing page and only invited after you certify — never sprung on you.

Is support real, or a ghost-town community?+

Real, and in writing. A 24/7 AI concierge answers instantly; a Certified Associate replies within the hour; Shayne reviews top-tier escalations himself. Our community runs on live cohorts and rituals, not an empty forum.

How old do I need to be?+

AIRA is built for ages 14 to 100. The 16-year-old and the 68-year-old learn the same way: by building something small, then something real. (Under 18, just loop in a parent or guardian.)

Will this be obsolete in six months?+

That's exactly why it's a subscription-backed Living Curriculum, not a frozen video dump. The field moves weekly; so do we. Members get every update.

Stop watching people get rich with AI. Become one.

Your first credential is one weekend and $38 away. The Honest Guarantee has your back — 30 days, one click, no hoops.
