Charlottetown, PEI · beginner-friendly · hands-on
A focused 2.5-hour workshop where you turn an idea into a working project using Claude, Codex, and a modern delivery workflow. We hand you the rod, not the fish.

What to bring
Built for independence
You do not need traditional coding experience. You need the willingness to make something, break it, fix it, and leave knowing how to do it again without us.
The session is designed so you leave with skills that compound, not slides you forget. Every block is oriented around building your own capability.
You will start with an idea and leave with something working, deployable, and yours to keep improving.
Prompting, iterating, debugging, and steering AI tools without getting lost in the chaos.
We work side-by-side in the room, so questions turn into momentum instead of browser-tab spirals.
You will understand what to do next when you want to build the second version on your own.
This seminar is led by Kyle McCullough — a geospatial AI researcher, simulation director, and production engineer whose career spans DoD research, Hollywood, and applied AI. Now farming in Hazelbrook and building the Brookside Agroforestry Research Center (thebarc.ca).
Production agentic systems, spatial AI chatbots deployed at major airports, led engineering across distributed systems and applied AI.
Directed multi-million dollar DoD research across AI agents, computer vision, and synthetic environments. 16 peer-reviewed papers, two Best Paper Awards.
Creative Director for Transference (shipped with Ubisoft). Built mobile games with 300K+ downloads including an Apple Game of the Day.
Shipped products
Interactive narrative game with branching storylines. 187K+ units on the App Store.
Local Apple Silicon toolkit for image generation, LLM inference, TTS, ASR, video, and model serving.
Camera tool that reimagines photos through AI-powered alternate reality filters.
Plus a dozen more shipped apps across iOS, web, AI, and CLI.
Every part of the seminar is built around getting from vague idea to working build before the energy drops.
Pick something small but real, define the outcome, and frame the prompt so the tool has a fighting chance.
Create the initial app, wire up the features, and learn how to keep the AI pointed at the actual job.
Tighten the UI, fix problems, and ship a working version instead of stopping at a prototype.
Leave with a reusable process so your next app starts with less hesitation and more speed.
The seminar is designed to remove hesitation, not add more ambiguity.
The seminar is for founders, makers, curious beginners, and working developers who want a practical AI-assisted workflow for turning ideas into shipped software.
No. The session is beginner-friendly and hands-on. You need a laptop, a willingness to iterate, and either a problem to build around or a prompt to start from.
Bring your own laptop and access to Claude or Codex. The seminar is built around using modern AI coding tools to generate, refine, debug, and deploy a real project.
You leave with a working project, a repeatable build workflow, and six months of access to the Sawfwair digital materials library.
Join the list and we'll send the next seminar announcement, early bird openings, and location details as soon as they're ready.
