Thursday's live session: Claude Code + MCP against your own data

Bring a real dataset. We will wire an MCP server to it, let Claude Code work against it, and ship one small tool by the end of the hour. Recording goes in Classroom the same night.

Shipped: a browser agent that files my expense receipts every Friday

Took three runs to get the login step stable. The trick was giving it a saved login instead of asking it to type the password each time. Run history and credits screenshot attached, ask me anything.

Mock interview debrief: the FDE loop is all about scoping

Did the mock interview with Tai last night and the feedback was blunt in a useful way. I kept jumping to architecture before asking what the customer actually measures. Posting my notes for anyone prepping.

About

Watching isn't the proof. The work is.

TAI Labs is a clubhouse for people who ship with AI. Rooms by topic and by city, live sessions every week, career tools, browser agents that do real web work, and a leaderboard that only counts what you built. Companies run their custom programmes inside the same clubhouse, in private rooms, with the same mechanics.

"Bring a real problem to Thursday's session and leave with something running. That is the whole format."

Dr. Aki WijesundaraHost · careers, evals, readiness

"Course completion isn't capability. We measure what people can do on Monday morning, and we show it."

Bring your team

A private clubhouse for your company. Same pull, same mechanics, plus a readiness ladder your board can read.

Custom AI upskilling, AI readiness assessment and transformation consulting, run as a 12-week live cohort on your own workflows inside tailabs.ai. It ends in working systems and an executive outcomes summary, not a certificate wall.

Companies we've trained

Executive summary, in one paragraph

Your people join a private room with the same feed, sessions, points and levels as the public clubhouse. We measure where each role sits on the readiness ladder, run four live sessions on your stack, and hand you a week-12 summary that says who can now do what, with the shipped workflows as evidence.

Why teams buy

The six things we hear on the first call, in the words we hear them.

The operating loop

Six stages, and the sixth is the point. It runs again next quarter without a new procurement cycle.

  1. 01MeasureReadiness assessment by role, before anyone is taught anything.
  2. 02PrioritisePick the workflows where AI moves a number you already track.
  3. 03EnableLive sessions on your stack, your data, your roles.
  4. 04ApplyAssignments are real work. Office hours unblock it.
  5. 05ProveDemo day. Shipped workflows as the evidence, not a quiz.
  6. 06RepeatThe room stays open. The next cohort starts from the ladder.

The readiness ladder

Five levels. Every participant is placed in week one and again in week twelve. Managers see the movement, never the conversations.

  1. 1Aware
  2. 2Active user
  3. 3Workflow practitioner
  4. 4Workflow builder
  5. 5AI champion

The 12-week format

Custom AI Training, as it runs inside the platform.

  1. WEEKS 1 TO 2Discovery and AI-readiness assessmentInterviews, workflow audit, ladder placement.
  2. WEEKS 3 TO 10Four custom live sessions on your stack and rolesRecorded into your private classroom. Assignments are your own work.
  3. WEEK 11Demo dayEveryone ships.
  4. WEEK 12Executive outcomes summaryReadiness movement, shipped workflows.

Throughout: two office hours with the hosts, and the private room stays open after week 12.

Custom AI Training

Scoped on a call · 12 weeks

Priced by cohort size, 5 to 51+ participants. Includes the readiness assessment, four live sessions, office hours, demo day and the executive summary. Community membership for every participant is included.

Not surveillance software. No raw AI conversations, no private coaching content, no personal career plans, ever visible to managers. Managers see evidence: assigned-activity completion, readiness evidence, submitted workflows and aggregated team patterns.
