AI Startup Workshop: Validate, Research, Prototype

AI Startup Workshop: Validate, Research, Prototype

Tue, May 19, 9:00 AM
From AI Startup Club

This is not a networking night and it’s not a passive talk. AI Startup Club is a working session for people with an app, website, SaaS, or AI business idea who want real progress, not just opinions. The format is roughly 50% discussion and 50% doing. We’ll workshop ideas together, challenge weak assumptions, use AI to sharpen concepts, and actively test whether an idea is worth pursuing. During the session, we’ll use AI live to generate better versions of ideas, explore positioning, create early roadmaps, and critique business models. We’ll also do practical market research to look at competitors, see what already exists, and figure out whether the opportunity is strong enough to keep going. If the idea holds up, we may move into rough prototyping or mapping out an MVP. This is for people who want direction, honest feedback, and hands-on guidance using modern AI tools. You do not need to be technical, but you should be ready to participate and work on an idea in the room. Come if you want to leave with more clarity, better questions, stronger ideas, and ideally something concrete started before the event ends. If you want, I can also turn this into a shorter Meetup-style version with a stronger hook at the top.
