The course
What is the Aextra Creator Course?
A free online course on the whole AI product pipeline: a project brief, the agent build, deploy, an admin back office, docs, browser testing, a demo video and the launch. AI agents do the work and you make the decisions. Most courses stop once the app is built. This one also covers everything after the build. See every lesson on the course map.
Who is it for?
Solo founders and indie makers launching one product, agencies and freelancers who want a repeatable pipeline for client work, creators who want a steady stream of build-and-launch videos, and anyone comfortable with tools like Airtable or Notion who has never written code.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. The agent writes the code. You learn enough about the terminal, repos and keys to set things up and follow what the agent is doing, and Part 1, Background knowledge, covers how coding agents work before you build anything.
What will I build?
A product of your own: a live web app with sign-in, an Airtable database and admin back office, branded emails, docs and a demo video. The capstone takes you through planning, building, recording and publishing it. The home page shows Parkuj, a parking-space marketplace our agents built with the same process.
How long does it take?
There are 68 lessons published so far, about 26 hours of lessons in all, and each lesson shows its own time on the course map. New lessons appear there as soon as they are published. Your own builds run while you are away: the agent built Parkuj, shown on the home page, in about an hour.
Cost
Is it really free? How?
Yes. The lessons, prompts, starter kits and setup checklist are free with a free account. Some tool links are affiliate links: if you sign up through one, we may earn a small commission or account credit, at no extra cost to you. Lesson 0.2, How the course is free, explains it.
Which tools and accounts do I need, and what do they cost?
The main tools are Claude, Cloudflare, Airtable, VibeKit, Wispr Flow, ElevenLabs and OBS Studio, with GitHub, the Gemini API and Google Workspace in support. Claude Code needs a paid Claude plan. Cloudflare has a free tier that covers most course projects, and OBS Studio is free. The tools page shows what each tool costs, the plan we use and any free alternative. Prices change, so check the sign-up page before you pay.
Do the affiliate links change what you recommend?
No. Affiliate payments never decide which tools we teach. We only recommend tools we use ourselves, and where a free alternative exists the tool’s card says so. VibeKit is made by Aextra, the team behind this course, and we say so wherever it appears. Read the affiliate disclosure.
Your set-up
Which computer do I need?
Windows or Mac. Lessons show the steps for both, and the site remembers which one you use. Lesson 0.4, Hardware and software check, lists the minimum and the recommended set-up. A second screen helps when you record demos.
Do I need an account to start?
You can read the course map, the tools page and these answers without one. The lessons, prompts, starter kits and setup checklist need a free account. You sign in with Google or a one-time code sent to your email, so there is no password to remember.
How does the course keep my data and keys safe?
The Security part comes before the build skills. It covers what anyone can see in a web app, how to keep your idea and your data safe, and why every build in the course goes through a proxy, so your database keys never reach the browser. The lessons also show where secrets belong. Never paste a password or API key into a chat.
Demo videos
Can I make a demo video without filming myself?
Yes. Track B makes a launch video for any product, not only one built on this course, from screenshots: an AI presenter and voice from ElevenLabs, narration in one take, and animations timed to every word. No camera and no screen recording.
