In one day your team builds its first own tools

Everyone brings a task that's still done by hand and builds a tool for it with Claude Code. No coding skills needed.

One day · €1.500 for up to 4 people

Your team can ask AI questions on its own, building is the hard part

An agent that finishes a task on its own has to be built. Companies come to us for that, usually with one of these three questions.

For owners and directors

A company OS and a company brain

One system your company runs on: your knowledge, your folders, your skills and your agents. You leave with a working foundation, an OS blueprint and a roadmap of what you build yourself and what you outsource.

For teams already building software

Your developers and designers build with agents on your own product

Every developer and designer works on a task of their own, in your own code or design system. We build security requirements and IT limits into the design of the day up front, with fallbacks ready.

For teams with no software background

Your own tooling for your field

Everyone takes over one manual job, in a shared environment where the rest can use it. Along the way you capture your craft knowledge, as a bonus.

How the day runs

Most build days run like this, with times we fit to your day.

  1. 1

    Beforehand

    The intake

    With you as the owner or AI lead we choose the jobs your team builds on. If it is not in the intake, it is not in the programme.

  2. 2

    09:00

    Agreements and a demo

    What does each person want to have in hand at the end of the day? Then a short live demo: this is how you build with Claude Code.

  3. 3

    09:45

    Choose and feed

    Everyone picks their job and writes down what the tool needs to know and how you can tell it is right. We also explain what skills are and how to use them.

  4. 4

    10:30

    A warm-up

    Everyone does the same small assignment and has something that works within fifteen minutes.

  5. 5

    11:00

    Building on your own job

    The biggest block of the day, with lunch. You build on your own work, within the limits of your IT. Once something works, you share it with a colleague.

  6. 6

    15:30

    Demo

    Everyone shows their tool running, to the team and to you.

  7. 7

    16:00

    The roadmap

    You put all ideas on a matrix of impact against effort and choose together what you build next and who picks up what.

  8. 8

    After six weeks · with Keep building

    The return day

    We come back for half a day. We look at what you have built on your own since, finish what was left and choose the next job together.

What your team can do after the day

After most AI trainings you go home with a decision. After the build day, with tools and skills your team built itself, and this:

  • ✓Build and adapt a tool with Claude Code yourselves, without a programmer
  • ✓Turn a job that is now done by hand into an assignment for an agent
  • ✓Judge what AI does well and badly in your work
  • ✓Choose which job you tackle next

What you need: a laptop and at least Claude Pro per participant.

Who runs the day

Tim van den Bosch runs the build day. He has worked in digital for twenty years, including as co-founder and CTO of the digital agency a friend of mine, now part of DEPT®. He builds with AI agents himself every day, from quotes and bookkeeping to complete client platforms.

He taught development teams at KPN, Booking.com and RH Marine, among others, to work with agents. He's a Build ambassador, part of the SpaceXSI Community. He always worked towards the same goal: that the team can do it themselves afterwards.

Who the build day works for, and who it does not

It works if

  • You pay hundreds of euros for a software package and use only 10% of it
  • Your team would rather spend its hours on clients than on repetitive work
  • You want to change what you build yourself, without a quote or an outside party that takes ages
  • You use systems that can be connected, like your accounts, your webshop or your CRM

It does not work if

  • You are looking for a course in writing prompts
  • You mostly want AI to write your texts
  • You only want to keep working with Copilot
  • Every step has to go past three managers first
  • You would rather have it built for you. That is what Sitelane, strategic web & systems agency does

What business owners say about it

SammyFrietboutique Sammy & Pebbles
“You walk in with a list of things that have been lying around for years, and you go home with something that actually works. You don't have to be technical: we run a fries and ice cream shop, we're not programmers.”
Bart LacroixFounder of GoodUp
“Learned more here than from all those podcasts.”

On the team day your whole company comes along

AI makes people uncertain. Some pull ahead, others would rather stay with the old work. On the team day you sit down with your whole team and not just with the management. You book it on its own, or with everything else in The whole company.

  • ✓Who is moving along and what each person needs
  • ✓Which work disappears, which work arrives
  • ✓A quarter card your team runs itself

Custom programme for teams and full rooms

For organisations that want to go further than one team we make a bespoke programme: several build days, a session for a full room or a track per department. We design it around your licences, your IT and the different levels in the room. We have done this before with teams at KPN, Booking.com and RH Marine.

What owners and AI leads ask us

What happens to our client data?+

We build with your real files and connect to the systems you already use. So you go home with tools that make your work faster the very next morning. Beforehand we switch off "train on my data" together, and you agree with your IT what is and is not allowed. Before AI touches real data, we make a backup.

Does our data stay in Europe?+

By default Claude runs outside Europe, and Anthropic stores your data in the US. If you want your data to stay in Europe, you can use Claude on AWS in an EU region. That takes more setup, and you pay per use instead of a fixed subscription. The provider is still American. Fully European is possible too, with Mistral for example, but your team builds less well with it for now. That is why most teams choose the standard route. Not sure? We work it out together beforehand.

Which Claude plan do we need?+

At least Claude Pro per participant, which includes Claude Code. If your team keeps building a lot afterwards, Claude Max is more practical. Turn off "train on my data" in the privacy settings. We go through that together beforehand.

Do my people need to be able to program?+

No. The team at energy label consultancy PKW had no software background and built 17 tools in five months.

What about security?+

Your team learns to work with agents within a safe stack we propose, and we build everything to fit your situation. If you keep building with us afterwards, we check at the monthly check-in that everything still happens safely.

And if my team is sceptical?+

Then it gets a different programme. The team first sees measured results and hears honestly what the model cannot do.

What do we need to arrange beforehand?+

A laptop, a Claude account and access to the systems you build on, for example a link to Exact. We set that last part up together beforehand, because on the day itself it often gets stuck.

What happens on the return day?+

About six weeks after the build day we come back for half a day. You show what you've used since. Then we finish what was left and build the next task on your list. The return day is part of Build and keep building and of The whole company.

What is the monthly check-in?+

A short conversation with you as the owner or AI lead. What is going well, where do you get stuck and what do you build next? If you get stuck in between, you email us.

How is this different from the team day?+

The build day is for a team that wants to learn to build itself. The team day is for when AI unsettles your team. That day is about who does what and what changes in your business model. On its own it costs €6.500 for your team of up to 20 people. The whole company includes both, plus a year of keep building.

Can I come on my own?+

Yes. The build day also works for one person, at the same price: €1.500 excl. VAT. You spend the whole day building for your own task, with us next to you.

What does it cost for my team?+

The build day costs €1.500 for up to 4 people. Each extra person costs €250, up to 8 people (€2.500). Build and keep building costs €4.500 for a team of up to 8 people. All prices are excl. VAT.

Why do I pay upfront?+

Then you know exactly what it costs and our time goes into your tools. Build and keep building runs for a year. Every month your team builds something new, and that's how it learns to carry on without us. Whatever you build stays yours.

What if it doesn't work for us?+

That can happen. About half the teams don't manage it on their own. That's why we give two guarantees. If at the end of the build day you feel it wasn't worth the money, tell us and you get everything back. And if six weeks later nobody is using a tool they built themselves, with Build and keep building we come back at no cost until they do.

Our core team is larger than eight people. Is that possible?+

Yes. Then we design a bespoke programme, with several groups or a day for a full room. Ask for it and we'll work it out together.
