Shunka AI · AI agent training for teams

We train your team to design, build, and deploy production AI agents in-house — so you stop paying agencies on repeat and own the capability for good. Led by the educator who took a team of teenagers to the ANA Avatar XPRIZE, and shipped a production AI agent solo.

Most companies rent their AI. Then they're stuck.

You hire an agency. They build you one agent. The moment you need a change, you're back in the queue — paying day rates, waiting on someone else's roadmap. The skill never transfers. You stay dependent, and every new use-case starts the meter running again.

There's another way. Your own people learn to build and ship agents. Once that capability is inside the building, every future agent costs you time, not another invoice.

I spent 30 years teaching people to do hard things for themselves. That's the entire job here. Your team walks out able to build — not just able to file a ticket with a vendor.

Two teams qualified in England. One was a university. The other was teenagers.

Out of every team in England, only two made it through ANA Avatar XPRIZE qualification. One was a team of University of Sheffield lecturers. The other was Catalyst AIX — one science teacher and a group of 14–18 year-old students, working out of a school. We were invited to Phase 1A. Then COVID lockdown closed the schools and the run ended there.

That's not a story about lucky teenagers. It's proof that the right teaching makes non-experts ship expert-level work. If I can take 14-year-olds to XPRIZE qualification, I can get your team building production agents.

What your team walks away able to do.

Three ways to bring it in-house.

01
Team Workshop
1–2 days
Foundations, plus a working prototype your team builds alongside me. The fastest way to see whether this is right for you. Best first step.
02
Build Programme
Multi-week
We ship one real production agent for your business together, while your team learns by doing. You finish with a live agent and the skills to build the next one.
03
Advisory
Ongoing
Retained support as your team builds out its own agent roadmap. On call for design reviews, unblocking, and the hard problems.

I don't just teach this. I've shipped it.

Darwin is a production AI agent I built solo — prompts, tools, n8n orchestration, WhatsApp delivery, the lot. Talk to it and see what one person can build. Then picture your whole team able to do the same, for your business.
