Dedicated path

The deeper path when the work needs more room.

Build Studio is for serious builders who were recently beginners and are ready to follow through on one product, service, workflow, or prototype across eight classes. The 3-seat cap creates room for setup, structure, implementation support, tool decisions, review cycles, and practical instructor feedback.

Set up one serious path.

Plan, build, and review.

Keep the loop repeatable.

Eight-class path

Eight classes, three seats, one dedicated build path.

The exact work adapts to the student and the build. The rhythm below is how the studio moves: set up, plan, build, review, connect, and decide the next move.

01

Class 1

Set up the build

Review the project direction, source-of-truth docs, repo/GitHub needs, accounts, folder structure, and student-specific prep notes.

02

Class 2

Shape the path

Name the audience, workflow, feature set, constraints, and first useful version.

03

Class 3

Prepare the working materials

Turn goals, examples, prompts, and decisions into a build rulebook the project can keep using.

04

Class 4

Build the first useful pass

Use AI-assisted implementation in bounded passes with instructor guidance.

05

Class 5

Review and tighten

Inspect what came back, improve weak spots, and clarify what needs to change.

06

Class 6

Connect tools and services

Think through third-party tools, integrations, infrastructure, and service decisions.

07

Class 7

Prepare the next version

Refine the build direction, reduce friction, and define the next useful pass.

08

Class 8

Close with decisions and next steps

Capture what was learned, what remains open, and what should happen after the studio path.

Example build directions

Build Studio gives one real direction more room.

The deeper path is still scoped through examples, fit, and review. Public proof waits for real artifacts and consent.

Guided Build direction

AI research assistant

Create a repeatable research loop for comparing sources, extracting useful details, and spotting weak claims.

Possible artifact

A source-checking routine or research brief

Review question

Which claims need verification before they can be trusted?

Guided Build direction

Simple event or community page

Shape the purpose, audience, copy, and structure for a small public page that explains what is happening.

Possible artifact

A page outline, draft copy, and implementation checklist

Review question

Does the page promise only what is real?

Studio direction

Plain-language prototype plan

Turn a product, service, or workflow idea into a practical prototype plan with boundaries and review steps.

Possible artifact

A scoped build plan with microtasks

Review question

What belongs in the first useful version?

Curriculum examples stay intentionally plain until real sessions create real artifacts, feedback, and consent.

Fit and readiness

Good fit for serious builders with a real build direction.

You do not need to arrive as an expert. You do need enough readiness, schedule space, and follow-through to work across the full path.

Product or service builders

You want to focus on one real product, service, workflow, or prototype instead of sampling many small exercises.

Founder/operator types

You are trying to turn a workflow, offer, internal process, or service into something more usable.

Students ready to go deeper

You have tried AI and want stronger structure, project setup, feedback, and practical build guidance.

Beginner and ready to follow through

You may need prep before Class 1. That is fine if the fit call shows this is the right path.

Fit call

The first step is making sure this is the right path.

  • Skill readiness
  • Build direction
  • Schedule and budget readiness
  • Support expectations
  • Prep needs
  • Founder approval

Before payment

Start with a fit call before payment.

Build Studio starts with context. We learn where you are, what you want to work through, whether the pace is right, and whether prep material or setup notes would help before Class 1. If it is aligned and you want a seat, payment details and refund policy come after that conversation.

What you leave with

A build path, working assets, and a completion record.

  • 8 guided build classes
  • 3-seat builder lab
  • Class 1 setup for docs, repo, accounts, and project structure
  • Student-specific prep notes when useful
  • Working materials for the product or service path
  • Reusable prompt patterns
  • Build packet and session notes
  • Planning and implementation support
  • Tool and service decisions
  • Review cycles and next-step decisions
  • Prep material when useful before Class 1
  • Completion note after the full path when attendance is met

Students who complete the full path may receive a SoftFrame Certificate of Completion showing the class attended, hours completed, and skills practiced. It is not a license, degree, accredited certification, or employment guarantee.

Choose the right lane

Build Studio is the deepest class path in the current ladder.

Choose the lane that matches the support level, timing, and readiness of the work. The fit call keeps that routing clean before payment.

Questions

A few things to know before requesting a fit call.

Do I need to attend Free Meetup or Guided Build first?

No. Those paths can help, but Build Studio can start directly after the fit call if the level and timing are right.

Do I need to be advanced?

No. Build Studio is still beginner-aware, but it is for serious builders who can commit to a focused eight-class path.

What does the fit call check?

We look at readiness, build direction, budget and schedule comfort, support expectations, prep needs, and whether this is the right level of help.

Do I pay before the call?

No. Payment details are sent only after the consultation, alignment, and refund policy review.

What if I need prep before Class 1?

If Build Studio is otherwise aligned, Dante can send prep material before Class 1 so you can catch up on what you need to know.

Is Build Studio done-for-you?

No. It is instructor-guided build support. You should expect to participate, review, make decisions, and keep moving between classes.

Do I receive a certificate?

Students who complete the full path may receive a SoftFrame Certificate of Completion showing the class attended, hours completed, and skills practiced. It is not a license, degree, accredited certification, or employment guarantee.

When are dates scheduled?

Paid class dates are added after real student scheduling is ready. The public calendar shows free meetups first.

How is this different from Guided Build?

Guided Build teaches the judgment and repeatable habits. Build Studio is the 3-seat hands-on lab where serious builders apply those habits to one real build.

Share the product or service path.

This starts the fit check. If the level, timing, budget comfort, and build direction align, payment details come later.

Build Studio

For serious builders ready for a 3-seat hands-on product, service, workflow, or prototype lab.

Step 2

Contact

Enough to reply clearly when dates, class details, or consultation next steps are ready.

Optional. Example: MacBook, Windows laptop, Chromebook, not sure yet.

Step 3

Build consultation

No pressure and no payment here. The point is to understand your level, your goals, and whether the paid path is actually useful for you.

Describe the workflow, service, product, feature, prototype, concept, or business direction in plain language.
This helps make sure the paid path matches what you actually need.
Share likely availability, timing constraints, or when you would want to start.
Payment portal and refund policy are only sent after consultation and alignment.

If the path is aligned and you want a seat, you will receive the payment portal and refund policy before payment. If you are too early, we can send prep material first.
