The short version
The Towards AI Mentorship is an ongoing support program for AI engineers. It combines live access to senior engineers, direct asynchronous help, architecture and project reviews, career feedback, production resources, community access, and industry events. It costs $99 per month or $899 per year. The monthly plan can be cancelled at any time, and the yearly plan includes a 30-day money-back guarantee.
- The Towards AI Mentorship gives individual AI engineers direct access to a team of senior AI engineers for architecture, implementation, and career questions.
- Members receive two live sessions each week, asynchronous support, production resources, career feedback, community access, and monthly industry events.
- The program is built for people who are learning or shipping without enough experienced AI engineering support around them.
Writing the code is rarely the hardest part of AI engineering. The hard part is knowing whether you are solving the right problem.
A chatbot rarely stops to say, “I do not know enough about your system to answer that.” It may confidently recommend a new framework, a different model, fine-tuning, a team of agents, or all of them at once. When you are the only AI engineer on your team, that confidence can sound a lot like expertise.
That is why I am genuinely excited to make this announcement today: we are launching the Towards AI Mentorship for AI engineers.
It is the support system I wish more engineers had while they were learning, changing careers, or trying to ship a serious AI product on a deadline. Instead of making every important decision alone, you get a senior AI engineering team behind your project and your career.

Why we built the Towards AI Mentorship
Companies do not hire our team because their developers cannot code. They bring us in because someone needs to challenge the architecture, find the real bottleneck, and tell them when the confident answer is solving the wrong problem.
That second opinion matters. Should the product use retrieval, fine-tuning, a workflow, or an agent? Is the evaluation measuring something users actually care about? Is a framework helping, or is it hiding the failure? Could a simpler system perform better with less cost and latency?
Inside a funded company, those questions can involve several engineers, managers, and a consulting budget. A solo engineer often has a deadline, a chatbot that agrees with almost everything, and the hope that a decision will hold up in production.
We wanted to make the kind of guidance companies normally hire us for available to individual engineers.
One mentorship, two things you are building
You are building two things at once:
- The AI project you are building.
- The career you are building it for.
You need both. A strong project without a clear explanation can disappear in a crowded portfolio. A polished resume cannot compensate for shallow technical decisions. We help you build better systems and make the judgment behind them visible.
The project side: senior AI engineers on call
Members receive two live sessions every week for architecture reviews, implementation questions, project feedback, and technical problem solving. The sessions rotate across time zones and are recorded.
You also get direct asynchronous access to our AI engineering team. You can bring the problem that is blocking you now: a retrieval pipeline that keeps missing the right evidence, an agent that will not stop looping, an evaluation that rewards polished nonsense, a deployment tradeoff, or a framework decision you no longer trust.
We help you identify the actual problem, compare the tradeoffs, and understand the decision well enough to own it afterward. A tool recommendation without that judgment would leave you stuck again at the next fork.
Members also receive production resources built from our work. The first production blueprint walks through the agent setup and practices our team uses, including the judgment calls and wrong turns that do not fit into a clean demo.
The program also includes monthly live events with founders, hiring leaders, senior engineers, and guests from the field. These sessions are meant to expose members to how experienced builders make decisions, not just show another finished result.
The career side: feedback from people who hire
The second half of the mentorship focuses on the career behind the project.
We review resumes, LinkedIn profiles, repositories, project descriptions, and portfolios. The feedback comes from senior AI engineers and managers who know what hiring teams notice, what they discard, and what evidence makes a candidate easier to trust.
That support also includes a members-only community, a weekly curated AI job digest, and opportunities for standout members to work alongside our production team through internships. The goal is to help you present stronger evidence, get closer to real work, and stop guessing what your application is missing. The program does not promise employment.
Who this is for
We built the mentorship for people who are capable of building, but do not have enough experienced AI engineering support around them:
- The only AI person at a company.
- The freelancer whose client assumes a whole team is behind the work.
- The software developer moving into AI engineering.
- The junior AI engineer making production decisions for the first time.
- The graduate student with courses completed, projects started, and no clear bridge into the industry.
You do not need a perfect question every week. The core still arrives during a quiet month, and you can lean in harder when a launch or career move makes the questions urgent.
If you are starting from zero and cannot yet write Python, begin with the foundations first. The mentorship becomes much more useful when you can already build enough to encounter real decisions and bring them to the team.
What is included
The current mentorship includes:
- Two live sessions every week for architecture, projects, resumes, and career questions.
- Direct asynchronous access to the AI engineering team.
- A members-only community for discussion, networking, and peer support.
- Production resources and blueprints based on real engineering work.
- Monthly live events with industry leaders.
- A weekly curated AI job digest.
- Internship opportunities for standout members.
- The LLM Fundamentals and Beginner Python courses from day one, plus discounts on larger and upcoming courses.
The price is $99 per month or $899 per year. The monthly plan can be cancelled at any time, and the yearly plan includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. The official page remains the source of truth if the offer changes.
Your AI career does not have to be a solo project
I have spent the past six and a half years building AI systems, teaching engineers, and seeing the same pattern repeat: smart people lose weeks because they do not have someone experienced enough to challenge the first plausible answer.
This launch matters to me because it lets our 15+ engineers and mentors offer that second opinion to the person who would otherwise have to choose and hope.
If that person is you, join the Towards AI Mentorship. Bring the project on your desk, the role you want next, and the decisions you do not want to make alone.
FAQ
What is the Towards AI Mentorship?
It is an ongoing mentorship program that gives AI engineers access to live sessions, direct asynchronous help, project and architecture guidance, career feedback, production resources, community support, and industry events.
Who is the Towards AI Mentorship for?
It is built for solo AI engineers, freelancers, developers moving into AI engineering, junior AI engineers, and students who already have some technical foundations and want experienced guidance while they build projects and a career.
Is the mentorship one-to-one coaching?
Not exactly. Live sessions are group based, while asynchronous support and feedback are direct. This gives members personal access to the team without the price of private consulting.
What happens if I cannot attend a live session?
Sessions are recorded, and members can still submit project, architecture, resume, or career questions asynchronously.
How much does the Towards AI Mentorship cost?
The monthly plan is $99 and can be cancelled at any time. The yearly plan is $899 and includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. Check the official mentorship page for the latest offer details.
