A DayLight Creative Technologies practice

We run a company on AI.
We'll teach yours to do the same.

Most AI training is slideware and prompt tips. We do the opposite — we ship a real production app and run a multi-industry business with Claude and Claude Code as the workforce. Then we show your team exactly how.

Why training, not magic
AI is a tool. And like any tool, it's only as good as the person using it. We make your people exceptional at using it.
— the premise behind every Daylight AI engagement
Why learn from us

We don't demo it. We run on it.

Everything we teach, we use every day to operate a real company. That's the difference between a workshop and a working method.

Engineering
2 people

A fleet of agents ships real software

A production app across six sports and four TV platforms, built by a custom agent fleet behind a 100%-quality gate — the exact workflow we'll set up with your team.

Automation
~40 CLIs

AI operates the business by API

Custom harnesses wrapping Stripe, Supabase, Cloudflare, Sentry, Gmail, Slack and more — so agents drive the real tools, safely and on command.

Range
7+ fields

The method travels

The same approach delivers across software, marketing, research, operations and compliance — for engineers and business teams alike.

Engagements

A ladder, from audit to advisor.

We land with a focused assessment, transform your team in an intensive, then build alongside you and keep you current as the tooling evolves. Priced by the outcome.

01 · START HERE

AI Readiness Audit

from $2,500

A half-day deep look at how your team works today. We map your workflows, find the five highest-ROI places to insert AI, and hand you a roadmap. Credited toward your program if you proceed.

Core program
02 · THE TRANSFORMATION

Team Intensive

$15,000 – $25,000

Two to three hands-on days. Your team doesn't watch slides — they build. Everyone leaves with their own working agent workflow or custom harness running against your real stack, plus a playbook tuned to your risk posture.

03 · DONE WITH YOU

Build Engagement

from $8,000

We build your first production harnesses and agent pipelines alongside your team — your Slack bot, your inbox triage daemon, your internal-API CLIs — so the capability is yours to keep and extend.

04 · STAY AHEAD

Fractional AI Advisor

$2,000 – $5,000/mo

The tooling changes monthly. On a light retainer you get office hours, review of your agent setups, and rollouts of new capabilities — so what you learned in Q1 doesn't go stale by Q3.

Why not just one workshop? Because AI moves too fast for a single class to stick. Training creates demand for building; capability outpaces adoption. The audit lands the work, the intensive transforms the team — and the build & advisor tiers are where the real, durable value lives.

What we teach

A shared foundation, then your track.

Everyone starts with the same mental model. Then engineers and business teams split into role-specific tracks — and reconverge on building custom harnesses that connect AI to your real tools.

  • C4
    Safety & governance baselinePermissions, least privilege, idempotency, audit trails, and cost awareness.
