A 12-week live program for kids 10-16
Raise a kid who commands AI, not one who copies from it.
AI didn't level the playing field. It split it. Some kids are becoming directors: briefing AI, judging its output, shipping real things. The rest are becoming consumers. FutureMaster is a 12-week live program that trains the first kind, with weekly expert sessions, weekly demo days, and a crew of builders.
Week 1 they name the thing. Week 12 they defend it live, laptop closed.
Founding families get first seats and founding pricing. No spam, ever.
What we actually teach
Command, don’t consume
Most kids use AI like a vending machine. Ours treat it like their first employee: brief it, review its work, reject the sloppy draft, own the result.
Real artifacts, not worksheets
By week 12 your kid has a portfolio of real, live, defended projects. Demo days run on links, not slides. If it isn’t live, it doesn’t demo.
Judgment is the curriculum
AI is confidently wrong every day. We train the reflex that catches it, and the taste to tell good from almost-good. Those are the skills that survive every model release.
The loop every kid runs: Spark → Tools → Ship → Share
Twelve weeks, one engine. Every week lives in one phase of the loop, and every kid runs the full loop at least twice.
01
Spark
Find the thing they actually care about. Nobody masters tools they don’t have a reason to use.
02
Tools
Learn to direct AI like a staff: brief, verify, reject, re-brief. Command, not copy-paste.
03
Ship
Put it in the world. A URL, a product, a published thing. Real is the standard.
04
Share
Present it, defend it, teach it. Moving humans is the skill AI can’t replace.
The 12 weeks
Not a video library. A live program with a rhythm: one expert session, two build blocks, one demo day, and one laptop-closed defense. Every single week.
Phase I: Spark
Weeks 1-2- →A one-on-one coach session to find and name their spark
- →The “before” Dinner Table Test, on camera
- →AI reframed as their first employee: the management loop starts
Phase II: Tools
Weeks 3-6- →The verification instinct: catch the machine lying, log every catch
- →Context packs and one-shot mission briefs: directing, not prompting
- →Midpoint gate: pitch the one problem worth solving, defend the choice
Phase III: Ship
Weeks 7-10- →First real ship: the smallest live version, public by demo day
- →Taste reps: raise the work a full grade and log every human decision
- →Rehearse the 2032 interview: a problem, an AI, twenty minutes
Phase IV: Share
Weeks 11-12- →Ten real outreach messages to professionals in their lane
- →Final demo day in front of parents and outside judges
- →The defense: explain everything, laptop closed. The “after” test
Week 1, we record your kid explaining their latest project with the laptop closed. Week 12, we record it again after their final defense. That difference is the product.
What a graduate can do
No grades on output. The machine makes output free. Everything we measure is judgment, ownership, and shipping.
Selects problems like an owner, and says no to the nine not worth solving
Manages AI like a direct report, not a vending machine
Verifies by reflex: sources, seams, sanity-checks
Ships in public: three or more live, defended projects
Holds a personal standard AI output has to meet
Presents, teaches, and leads the humans around them
