Bangalore · In-person · Limited seats
One weekend. A room of nervous first-timers. You leave with a deployed AI workflow — or we failed, not you.
You've tried tutorials. You've tried motivation. You haven't tried 24 other nervous people and a deadline that doesn't have a snooze button.
Not a Zoom call. Not a Discord server. A physical room in Bangalore where you can't alt-tab away. You build next to other first-timers, with a coach at arm's length. Awkward at first. Unstoppable by Saturday afternoon.
"I copy-paste these 40 rows every Monday." That's your project. If you can describe a repetitive task in plain language, you can ship an AI workflow that handles it. We prove it on Saturday morning.
No certificate. No "completion badge." You leave with a URL that works — a deployed workflow someone can open and use. Your builder profile goes live after the weekend, because now you actually have something on it.
Sound familiar?
Different lives, same knot in the stomach: everyone else seems to be building with AI, and you're still watching.
Final-year or early-career. Your LinkedIn is full of shipped apps and you're still bookmarking tutorials. You don't need another course — you need one artifact a recruiter can actually open. You'll build it Saturday.
Marketing, ops, or sales. You live in spreadsheets and copy-paste hell. You've watched your engineering friends use AI to move faster and felt like the non-technical person at the technical company. Bring your most annoying task. Leave with it automated.
You know more about AI than most people in your circle — and you've built exactly nothing. Every tab is a promise you broke to yourself. This weekend, someone sits with you until v1 exists. No more "I'll start tomorrow."
The weekend
Saturday morning
No lectures. You arrive, describe a real task you want to automate, and start building with AI tools — guided by a coach. By lunch, your workflow has a shape.
Saturday afternoon
Your project goes from "kind of works" to "actually runs." You deploy it to a live URL. Other people in the room test it and give feedback. It gets real.
Sunday
Sunday is a surprise module that every past participant has called the highlight of their weekend. We're not going to ruin it. Just show up.
Monday morning
A deployed project with a shareable URL. A builder profile on Anek. Access to the alumni community. And if you want to keep going — the 30-day cohort.
Secure your spot before this batch fills.
“I came in with zero projects on my resume. I left with a live workflow I demoed in an interview two weeks later. The interviewer spent 10 minutes asking about it.”
“I've been copy-pasting the same report every Monday for eight months. I built an automation for it on Saturday afternoon. My manager asked me to present it to the team. I am not an engineer.”
“I had 14 AI tool subscriptions and nothing to show for any of them. The room changed everything — you literally can't leave until you've shipped. Best money I've ever spent.”
“Saturday was incredible. Then Sunday happened and I still can't believe that was included in the workshop. I've told everyone I know.”
Most AI education is built for people who already ship code. If you’re a student staring at placement season, an operator buried in spreadsheets, or someone who’s consumed a hundred AI demos without building once — nobody made anything for you. We started Anek because that felt wrong.
We’re not a coding bootcamp. We’re not a passive course. We rent a room in Bangalore, fill it with nervous first-timers and a few coaches, and nobody leaves until something is deployed. The format is the product. Screens are supporting actors.
Your builder profile goes live after the weekend — because that’s when you actually have something worth showing. The 30-day cohort is for people who want to keep shipping. But the workshop alone is designed to be worth ten times what you paid. That’s the bar we hold ourselves to.
