This cohort builds the team to deploy agentic systems  giving product, operations, and technology leaders the hands-on depth to architect, evaluate, and ship with confidence. 

What your team builds

1

A working agentic system

Every participant ships something real. A research agent, an automated workflow, or a production-grade system with evals – built using Claude Code, OpenClaw, and Azure AI Foundry.

2

Technical fluency that holds up in the room

Spec agentic systems, evaluate vendor claims, and hold engineering teams accountable – grounded in six levels of progressive AI concepts, not slides.

3

A shared language across every function

Sales, operations, finance, and technology aligned on what agentic AI means in practice. Change management has derailed more AI transformations than technical failures ever have.

4

A framework for evaluating AI investments

Build vs. buy, KPIs, eval methodology, production readiness criteria. The decision-making toolkit your team needs to move fast without getting it wrong.

Program syllabus

Six weeks. Six live sessions. Three build labs. The curriculum follows a deliberate progression from conceptual grounding to production readiness.

How it runs

Hybrid. Live sessions with Mahesh are held over Zoom, 3 hours each. Async content is self-paced. All elements are adjustable to your team’s calendar and time zones.

Live sessions

0

3 hours each, taught by Mahesh on whiteboard with real examples from shipping agents at Google, Meta, and AWS.

Hands-on labs

0

Every lab ends with a working artifact. Not a tutorial. Participants build and keep their own systems.

Async lessons

3 hours each, taught by Mahesh on whiteboard with real examples from shipping agents at Google, Meta, and AWS.

What past participants say

  • “Top notch course for anyone truly wanting to get into Agentic PM. Not a vanilla course - a full deep dive to get you day 1 ready. Mahesh has really built the application and experiential learning with labs and office hours very well.”

    Nitin Rathi

    Product Portfolio Director, DELL

  • “I joined after already launching a GenAI product at work, thinking I had some understanding. The depth far exceeded my expectations - the kind of insight I might have picked up only after launching ten different products.”

    Ioana-Rebeca Glitia

    CPO, FINNX

  • “Mahesh has worked in AI chips, MLops, PyTorch, AI services and AI agents - just that makes it worthwhile. He guided me to where to apply and how to get in. I received an AI PM offer within weeks of completing.”

    Brijesh Kundu

    Principal Product Manager, SecurityScorecard

  • Mahesh is both incredibly knowledgeable and a fantastic teacher, I’m not only impressed with him in the context of other AI courses, but also relative to higher education programs I’ve been through Mahesh stands out. This course is fantastic.

Meet Your Instructor

Mahesh Yadav

AI Lead, Early Agents · Google, Meta, AWS · Founder, Agentic AI Institute

I've spent 20+ years building production AI systems at Google, Meta, AWS, and Microsoft - not teaching about them. I architected early agentic infrastructure, including an AWS Bedrock agent featured in Andy Jassy's CEO keynote, and hold 12 patents in AI training and computer vision. Portfolio companies don't need another certification. They need their leaders aligned on what matters: build vs. buy, production readiness, and where AI creates durable margin versus technical debt. I'm the highest-rated AI PM instructor on Maven, 4.8 across 459 reviews, now in my 9th cohort.
