AI Ops Accelerator

"Overclock was a complete mindshift for me despite my 10 years at high growth startups. [[You learn to think AI-first in a way that would take years of self-learning to do otherwise.]]"

"Overclock pushed me to go farther with AI than I would have otherwise. I now build things only larger companies with huge budgets could have before."

"Overclock has been the most meaningful professional experience of my career. I left making things I didn't know I could make."

"The AI world is nuts right now. Overclock gives you the knowledge and courage to [[navigate the chaos]]."

"Professionally, it's unlocked a concept and framework that I have been working on for years and helped my confidence. In a new world riddled with AI hype, crap and confusion, it's still people that matter. And the instructors and classmates at Overclock were a good reminder of this."

"Since Overclock, I've been able to create meaningful products that make my work more efficient, and I've been able to help other people build and learn. It's fast-paced and lots of time spent building vs passively receiving information."

"Overclock accelerated my ability to build my own business, develop and refine new products, and validate ideas. I am using it currently to create a new kind of life insurance company built around earlier detection and treatment of cancer and cardiometabolic disease. The instructors are terrific and especially good at getting the best out of the cohort!"

"Things that used to take hours or days - now take minutes. I built custom tools and processes for repetitive data work, and already gotten positive feedback. Overclock meets you where you are, super engaging, and supportive. The community makes it special!"

"The impact of this program showed up almost immediately. I’d been stuck on a problem doing it manually too long. Using what I’d learned, I was able to build a system that solved it. The biggest shift was internal. I was nervous walking in, not sure I’d keep up. I came out confident in my AI acumen in a way I didn’t expect."

"Overclock broke down complex AI concepts into what actually matters. The most enduring lesson was this: AI amplifies both good decisions and poor ones. Without rigorous scope, discovery, and business alignment upfront, you’re not accelerating transformation, you’re accelerating drift. Now more than ever, "the work" before the work is the work."

"Even coming in with prior AI experience, I was surprised by how much faster I learned to move. The accelerator helped me go from “knowing the tools” to actually thinking in systems and building with much more speed and clarity."

"I’d let my work speak for itself. This program is challenging, hands-on, the instruction and support are top-notch. This course is engaging. There wasn’t a moment I wasn’t plugged in. I looked forward to every class. I’ve gained the confidence to interview for roles at companies that would have been far fetched otherwise."

"The unlock in my productivity from what I learned has been exponential. It's moved from “how can I use AI to move faster” to "how do I prioritize all the amazing ideas that I KNOW I can easily execute with my newly upgraded capabilities." Those I work with are regularly amazed at what I’m producing."

"As someone who was pretty skeptical, I think now is the most important time to be both critical and embracing about AI. Overclock doesn’t waste time with the branded chat bots and off the shelf AI solutions. You pick up a mindset shift that positions this technology agnostically so you are left feeling empowered to build something for YOU."

"I was laid off two months into the accelerator, so I used what I was learning to build a job tracker that brought structure to my search. With zero prior coding experience, I created a tool I used every day and a working solution I could point to in interviews. I believe it played a big role in helping me land my next job! I presented it as my capstone and even have other people using it now!"

"AI is moving incredibly fast, but at most companies there is still hesitation because of distrust, unclear policies, or a lack of real projects. Outside of work, it is hard to find dedicated time and structure to explore it seriously, so it keeps getting pushed aside. Overclock creates that space. It covers both the fundamentals and more advanced concepts, but more importantly it gives you the time, structure, and push to actually build and experiment. The instructors are accessible and act as real sounding boards, not just lecturers. If you know AI is going to reshape how we build but have not had the right environment to really lean in, this gives you the momentum and support to do it properly."

"I was learning slowly on my own, piecing things together. With tons of AI tools available, it was often confusing to know what to learn or which tools were actually the best to use. Overclock compressed months of trial and error into weeks. The biggest difference was learning the complete AI workflow—the nitty-gritty of how everything fits together—and understanding which tools truly help reduce my work and effectively support what I’m building."

"If you think you understand AI, most of us are barely scratching the surface. Overclock completely changed that for me, it opened my eyes to an entirely new level of capability and introduced me to powerful tools and workflows I never knew existed. If you want real leverage in AI engineering, this program will blow your mind and accelerate your skills fast."

"Overclock Accelerator teaches you how to successfully use AI in your life. From learning how to vibe code, to prompt engineering and creating your own agents, they cover it all. I came into this course basically knowing how to use AI for essentially autocomplete or helping answer some coding questions. I walked away knowing how to effectively use AI and create my own multi-agent application."

"After taking the accelerator, I feel fully confident which is a complete 180. I feel confident reading new insights, picking up new tools quickly, and being able to structure new projects that a few months ago would have never been a possibility for me."

"I use Ai for everything now. Before I would use Ai 1 or 2 times a week (minus tab completion). But now! I use it at least 3-4 hours a day. I used Claude code to write my RFCs at work. I used Claude and Cursor to create new features for my Shopify app. I coded features that would have taken me months to complete (if I didn't abandon it due to boredom) to finishing features in 2 weekends. Its so wild!"

"Prior to Overclock, I would spend 80% of my time wrestling with the code... Now it's the reverse. 80% of my time actually solving problems, shipping code to production. Overclock reignited my passion for coding, because I'm not dealing with as much of a headache as I once was."

"With some of the technologies I’ve worked with professionally in the past, I kind of felt like I was in a weird niche of SWE. But since learning these skills, I’ve had recruiters contacting me, people reaching out to me asking for my advice, which is very humbling to me, I never would have expected to get that kind of attention. It’s the first thing that recruiters notice is the Overclock Accelerator before even my full-time role."

"It’s the best decision you’ll make in terms of self learning right now for anything tech related! I got the confidence to talk about projects I’ve built and I knew what was going on. In my interviews for the current company I’m working at, I talked about these projects for each round and they loved how confident I was and how I knew exactly what I built."

"I have developed more and better work in 11 weeks than I have in the past 9 years. There is an immediate value I bring to my current role in my company's push to adopt AI into their product lifecycle."

"It's a great space to hone your AI skills with like-minded builders and keep current on a space that's evolving at breakneck speed. In my first or second week I decided that I would build a long-running idea I had but never had the time to build it how I wanted. I used my time at Overclock to build my app and have a really fun product at the end that I was proud of and will continue to build!"

"Going through this first cohort is one of the first times I’ve felt truly creative in a long time. Which I know is odd to say for a technical course — but the way that the course material is laid out is more like a set of Legos — i.e., you’ve learned about these 5 bricks/pieces in the AI ecosystem — now you can assemble them in any way you want to build something amazing."

"Honestly, this program makes it feel like anything is literally possible, no matter your skill level. After the first two weeks, I was fully confident in my ability to create anything."

"The accelerator just made me realize that I've been working way too hard. Something that would have taken me months—probably a year or two—to get updated features done in... an hour? It's insane."

"Earlier, when people talked about AI, LLMs, all of that —i t was a black box for me. Now I feel confident talking to my team or leadership and saying, ‘This is what I know — and this is what we could build.'"

"If you’re serious about actually building agentic AI products (not just calling an API and calling it “AI”), Overclock is worth it. The biggest mindset shift is realizing AI isn’t just a tool, it’s a collaborating team you architect and manage. If you want to be ahead of the curve instead of reacting to it later, this is a fast way to get there."

"Overclock felt different because the curriculum hit that perfect 'Goldilocks' zone between not being too basic for existing engineers and not assuming too much or getting too into the weeds. I thoroughly enjoyed that the entire class it’s completely hands-on. You get exposure to AI from every angle. Each week you work through real development projects with a clear roadmap and step-by-step guidance. By the end, you’re not just using AI tools, you’re building AI-powered products and agent workflows directly into applications in ways that expand what your software can do."
