Become an Elite Operator, or Be Replaced by One

For the last few weeks I have written about a single idea: AI now does the typing, and your edge is the judgment to catch the entries it gets confidently wrong. That is the defensive skill, and every firm needs it now.

This post is about the offensive one. Because catching AI's mistakes is where you protect your value. Building your own AI agents is where you multiply it. The people who pull ahead this decade will not be the ones who rent a few clever tools. They will be the ones who can look at any task that eats their week and build the machine that does it, with the review step baked in. We decided to teach that, end to end, and to put real weight behind it.

So here is what we built, and who is teaching it.

One enrollment, two programs

The offer is simple. One enrollment. One thousand dollars, one time. You get two things, and they are built to work together.

1. The AI Agent Sprint, a live, hands-on program where you build working agents alongside an instructor, with lifetime access.
2. The Black Belt course (AI Workflow Engineering), a $1,000 value, included. Our complete self-paced methodology, nine belt levels, yours to keep. It is the foundation that makes the live build click.

Here is the value math, plainly. The Black Belt course is worth the full one thousand dollars on its own. Your one thousand dollar enrollment covers it, and the lifetime live Sprint, three weeks every month for as long as you want, is included on top. Two programs, one price.

Who is teaching it

This is the part I am most excited to announce. The Sprint is led by Steve Cunningham.

If you do not know Steve, here is why it matters. He has spent fifteen years as the founder and CEO of Readitfor.me, turning the world's best business and personal development books into beautiful short-form videos and workshops for organizations around the world. He is the founder of Simple Academy, the number one AI productivity company, and the founder of the AI ROI Association. In other words, Steve has spent his entire career on one question: how do you take something complex and teach it so people can actually use it on Monday morning. The AI Workflow Engineering method is the product of that career.

Most "learn AI" programs give you one half of the equation. They hand you a technologist who has never closed a month, or a CPA who has never built a workflow. The Sprint gives you both. Steve leads the build. I am in the room as the accounting brain, so that anyone working on bookkeeping, tax, or accounting agents gets them built right for the actual work, not just clever-sounding prompts.

Included: the Black Belt (AI Workflow Engineering)

This is the complete methodology, from first principles to mastery, and it comes with your enrollment. Nine modules take you from using AI casually to thinking like a workflow engineer, Grey belt through Black:

1. The AI Productivity Toolkit (Grey): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/1-foundation-concepts-grey-belt
2. Understanding Generative AI (White): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/2-core-principles-white-belt
3. Goals and Action Plans (Yellow): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/3-workflow-design-yellow-belt
4. Adaptive Learning (Orange): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/4-advanced-workflows-orange-belt
5. Critical Thinking (Green): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/5-system-design-green-belt
6. From Role Ownership to Process Ownership (Blue): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/6-system-integration-blue-belt
7. Creating AI Workflows (Purple): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/7-advanced-orchestration-purple-belt
8. Multi-Role Processes (Brown): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/8-enterprise-patterns-brown-belt
9. Reverse Engineering Tools and Deliverables (Black): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/ai-workflow-engineering/9-complete-mastery-black-belt-1

Work through it and you will understand AI and workflows at a level most people in your field do not. That is the thinking. The live Sprint is where you turn it into agents you build yourself.

The AI Agent Sprint: lifetime access, live with Steve

Here is the live program, plainly. For your one-time enrollment you get lifetime access to a class that runs three weeks of every month, every month, for as long as you want to come back.

• Live and instructor-led on Zoom with Steve.
• Monday through Thursday, one hour a day, with daily homework so you actually ship.
• Three weeks every month, forever. Enroll once, attend as many times as you like.
• Each Monday-to-Thursday week is a full build cycle, so you can join any week and still walk out with a working agent:
  • Monday: pick the task that eats your week.
  • Tuesday: write the intake and the prompt that drives the agent.
  • Wednesday: build it and test it on real data.
  • Thursday: add your review step, ship it, and demo it.

You do not watch someone else build. You build, with help, until it works on your own files. And because lifetime access means you can run the live class three weeks a month for years, the value of a one-time price keeps compounding long after you enroll.

The next cohort starts Monday, July 6. July sessions run July 6 to 9, July 13 to 16, and July 20 to 23.

Who it is for

Anyone who wants to become an operator. You do not need to be an accountant, a coder, or technical. If you have ever thought "a machine should be doing this," this is where you learn to build that machine. Accountants, bookkeepers, tax pros, and firm owners get an extra edge, because I am in the room to make sure the accounting is sound. But the Sprint is for anyone in any role who is ready to stop doing the busywork by hand.

How to join

1. Enroll in the AI Agent Sprint and join the July 6 cohort with Steve. Your enrollment includes the full self-paced Black Belt course (a $1,000 value): https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/sprint

3. Trade notes with people already doing this in our free community: https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/community

AI does the typing. You make the judgment calls. And now, if you want it, you can learn to build the whole machine. Become an elite operator, or be replaced by one. We would rather you became one, and we will teach you how.
