This is not a course with a comments section. It's a room full of vibecoders becoming AI Directed Engineers, shipping real software, and holding each other to a real standard. Join free. No credit card. No trial clock. No catch.

Free usually means a teaser. A preview module and a paywall. That's not what this is. Three complete tiers of the CADE curriculum are free for every member, forever.
The complete 13-layer CADE fundamentals. Frontend, APIs, databases, auth, hosting, security, and eight more layers of real engineering discipline. 13 study guides. 13 timed exams. Pass all 13 and you earn the Associate Builder credential. Not a sample. The whole foundation.
Industry-specific AI Directed Engineering. EdTech, Construction, Healthcare, Real Estate, Government. How the 13 layers apply when the software has to survive a real industry with real rules.
You built a rocket. Now it's time to launch it. Business operations for builders: how to turn the skills into income. Pricing, clients, positioning, running the thing like a business.
Zero to revenue for $0. Learn it. Build it. Launch it. No credit card required.
Builders from Kenya, Kuwait, the Cook Islands, the Philippines, the UAE, and dozens more countries. People finishing the full certification because the content hits that hard. Graduates already working on real projects. Daily builds, peer feedback, and accountability from people who are actually shipping. Here's what they say, unprompted:
The quizzes actually test understanding instead of just memorization. It's clear a ton of thought went into this.
It showed me what I needed to upgrade on my app ASAP. I was able to close some security gaps and other items as I was going through the modules.
I was testing my knowledge by reviewing items in my own technology, and it definitely prepared me for my capstone.
Man, you have put a TON of work into this. I am super impressed.
I remember asking if you'd mentor me. You pointed me toward this community instead. Now I understand why. The amount of knowledge, experience, and energy here is incredible. You've unknowingly helped me build something I never thought I'd be capable of building.
I'm getting pretty darn good at making apps work now. Got my first two paying customers recently, and they absolutely loved what they get. A lot thanks to Matt's knowledge.
A senior ML engineer, a builder who patched his own security gaps mid-course, the first graduate on the planet, and a 35-year software veteran. That's the room you're walking into.
This community is gonna be huge!!
You're building something great here, man. I'm glad to be a part of it.
Great community. Love the content so far.
Thank you for this amazing community and videos. You are a huge help during my development process.
Mil here from the Philippines. Love the insights I'm learning here. Would love to connect with fellow action takers.
The community is the engine. But the resources alone justify showing up.
Four battle-tested playbooks: the 30-Day AI Prescription, Bertha (your AI chief of staff), the Staff AI Hackathon, and the Vibecoding production stack. All free.
Not Murphy's Law, roughly 49,500 words, #1 release in Information Systems on Amazon. Free PDF, right here.
Three videos a day from the 13-layer framework. The curriculum, broken into pieces you can watch between builds.
Every framework came out of real deployments across five technology cycles. Tested, broken, and rebuilt before it reached you.
Thirty years in technology. Five cycles: Y2K, Cloud, Mobile, Social, and now AI. Software shipped to 55+ countries, 3,000+ businesses served, and one conclusion at the end of it all.
The biggest opportunity in the AI era isn't another tool. It's the people who learn to direct the tools.
The Faction is the Computer Learning Center of 2026. The place where anyone, from anywhere, can walk in and learn a profession that didn't exist three years ago. That's why T1 is free. A mission this size doesn't fit behind a paywall.
The free path takes you from zero to revenue. Builder Access takes you to the professional credential. $77 a month unlocks T2, T3, T4, T6, and T8: advanced engineering, the capstone, security deep dives, agent orchestration, and the full Certified AI-Directed Engineer path. Regional pricing keeps it accessible worldwide.
