Developed and launched first app in three days and landed first AI client

Before coming to the AI Mastery 2026 program, I was working as a solo consultant, taking on tasks which required me to investigate very niche markets which no one had ever previously written reports about. There was information out there but it was very fragmented and needed pulling together and analyzing in a way which was credible. I started using AI for this purpose but I knew I was using it badly. I was spending a lot of time iterating with AI in a way that I thought was wasting my time and which was getting me quite discouraged and frustrated but I just kept continuing. It was while doing that that I was invited to attend the AI summit. While listening to the trainers for AI Mastery, I realized this course was exactly what I needed so I signed up immediately. I believed that the key value in this course would be in showing us how to actually do AI, rather than teaching theory. I was not disappointed at all. Thanks to this program, I not only learned how to structure and use AI in a way that has now enabled me to develop and launch my first ever app in three days using a combination of Claude code and Claude co work, but also completely changed my mindset. I've now also landed my first AI client in the United States. A small company with big ambitions in the Sandusky area of Ohio And now my mind has been blown wide open to the range of possibilities out there, from using AI to create children's stories with my daughter in multiple languages (including Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish) to using AI with industrial companies and creating new workflows for clients to enable them to streamline their operations and become more efficient. At the same time I've also become aware of the way in which AI can be used as a democratizing force, not the sort of scary force that it's been portrayed in some media outlets. Now I'm really looking forward to the way in which AI is helping me to be more creative, not only with my clients but also in my private life, and to using it to enhance my own personal creativity in ways that I've never even considered before.
