Team Access

Your best developers are already using AI tools. But they're all using them differently.

One person swears by Cursor. Another won't touch anything but Copilot. Someone figured out a prompting pattern that works great, but they've never shared it. Meanwhile, the team has no shared vocabulary for talking about AI-assisted development, no consistent practices, and no way to evaluate whether the AI output actually meets your standards.

You've probably sent people to a conference talk or two. Maybe bought some Udemy courses. But nothing has stuck because nothing was designed for experienced developers working on real systems together.

Your team doesn't need an intro to AI. They need a shared operating system for professional AI-assisted development.

The Team Transformation

After completing the workshops I offer on this site (or virtually), your team will have:

• Shared mental models. Everyone understands token economics, context management, and probabilistic reasoning at a level where they can make informed architectural decisions. No more "I don't know, the AI just does that sometimes."
• Consistent practices. Prompt architecture patterns that work across the team. Code review standards for AI-generated code. Security practices everyone follows. A shared language for discussing AI-assisted work.
• Tool fluency. Not just knowing which buttons to click, but understanding which tool to use when, how to configure them for your workflow, and how to evaluate new tools as they emerge.
• Agentic capabilities. The ability to build MCP servers, architect multi-step workflows, and create systems where AI does real work—not just autocomplete.

Pricing

Your team gets full access to this site and all future updates. They will learn on their own schedule, revisit material as needed, and have full access to me whenever they have a question.

Best for: Distributed teams, self-motivated learners, ongoing reference material.

How this works

Just send me an email and I'll get you set up with a custom invoice for you and your team. Once completed, I'll ask you for a CSV with names and emails for your team, and whether they want to receive the newsletter (the default will be "no"). I'll load them, up, and off we go.

Virtual Training Sessions

I offer AI training for teams of any size, from startup to enterprise, and I customize it for your tech stack and individual challenges. Some teams are using Gemini, others Claude Code. Some use Cursor only, others prefer Copilot. No matter the need, I can tweak the content as you need.

The price for virtual training is $750/seat  with a 10-person minimum. This will be delivered in a 3-hour session, but can be increased/decreased as needed.

Includes:

• 3-hour live workshop via your meeting system of choice
• Pre-workshop team assessment
• Examples customized to your stack
• 30-day follow-up email support
• Full site access for all participants

Best for: Teams that want guided learning, specific customization, or need to train together for cohesion.

In-Person Deep Dive

This session is two days of intensive, hands-on training at your location. All content will be customized to your team, and your team's experience. We work with your actual codebase, review your architecture, and build real agentic workflows together.

The cost for the in-person workshop is $1,500/seat  with a 10-person minimum, plus all travel expenses.

The workshop includes:

• Two full days on-site
• Hands-on exercises with your codebase
• Architecture review of one real project
• 30-day follow-up email support
• Full site access for all participants

Best for: Teams making a serious investment in AI capabilities, organizations that want maximum impact.

About Me

I spent 3 years on the VS Code team at Microsoft, specifically working on Copilot strategy. Not marketing - the actual implementation decisions about how to make these tools useful for professional developers.

I've trained thousands of developers on AI adoption. Internal engineering teams at Microsoft. Corporate teams at companies you'd recognize. The kind of developers who ask hard questions and don't accept hand-wavy answers.

I currently train teams on Copilot and Claude Code full-time. Not webinars. Actual workshops where people interrupt and say "that's great but how do I handle our legacy Java codebase" and I have to have a real answer.

I've been training developers since 2005 and I know how to listen and communicate, and I can help elevate your team to help them transition in this amazing time.

FAQ

You might have a few questions, so feel free to reach out to me at any time.

What if some team members are more experienced with AI than others?

The content on this site is for developers of all experience levels, but is best suited for people with 5+ years of experience. I have beginning AI workshops as well as advanced, with The AI Pro.

Can you customize for our specific tech stack?

For virtual workshops and in-person intensives, absolutely. I'll do a pre-workshop assessment and tailor examples to your languages, frameworks, and toolchain. The self-paced course uses broadly applicable examples but covers patterns that transfer to any stack.

What about enterprise security requirements?

Security with AI is incredibly important, and each tool has a way to limit what gets sent to the LLM. With Copilot, you would use a .copilotignore file with globs (just like a .gitignore) in order to identify what files and directories are off limits. Claude Code respects a .gitignore but you can also set up individual permissions.

There are other concerns and issues as well, and yes we get into security.

Do you offer volume licensing or enterprise agreements?

For teams of 50+, let's talk. Email rob@bigmachine.io and we'll work out something that fits your procurement process.
