🎙 Speaker: Lightman · Founder of JR Academy
🎟 Free · Registration required · Limited to 30 seats
This time, Lightman won't just talk — he'll build a real product live, in front of you
Most AI courses, no matter how good, ultimately teach you to "work better for someone else" — automate a few hours of busywork, or land an AI engineer offer. All useful, but the destination is still working for others.
The AI Solo Founder Bootcamp is the first and only JR Academy course built around one idea: don't just get a job — build your own thing. Make your own product, sell it, get paid compliantly in Australia, and claim your R&D spend back as a government grant. One person, leveraging AI, running a business that used to need a whole team.
This open class, we won't just explain it — we'll do it, live.
🛠 What makes this session different: you'll watch a product get built from scratch
A lot of people are skeptical that "one person + AI can build a real product" — it sounds like a slide-deck story. So this time, Lightman opens his laptop and, using Cursor / Claude Code / Lovable / v0, takes an idea and builds a working product on the spot — then connects Stripe to take real payments.
You'll see the whole path play out:
- From zero to running: an idea → a lean PRD → AI turns it into a product you can actually open and use (not screenshots, not a demo toy)
- How you get paid: connecting Stripe / Lemonsqueezy and taking your first real, compliant payment in Australia
- The real blockers, solved live: ABN verification failing Stripe, deployment not connecting, domains — the small things that trap solo founders, and how to get past them
- What AI does for you: engineering, design, copy, marketing — watch AI pick up the parts you can't do
🧑💼 This session is especially for
- People who've seen the course page but want to see with their own eyes that one person really can ship a product before deciding
- Lawyers / accountants / consultants / designers / PMs who want to productise their expertise with AI — instead of selling time by the hour
- Engineers tired of working for others, who want to build their own product but are stuck on "how do I sell it and get paid compliantly?"
- Small business owners who want to rebuild their business with AI and figure out Australian grant / tax incentives
- Anyone drawn to the "one-person company" idea but held back by "I have no startup experience / I'm not technical"
What happens on the day
- Positioning — why "don't just get a job": how this differs from every other AI course, and what a One Person Company really means in the AI era
- 🔴 Live build — a product from zero to taking payments: the main event. Lightman builds and monetises a product live, explaining each step as he goes
- The 11-week path — 4 phases: Build & Sell → AI Marketing system → Australia Operations (ABN / GST + RDTI 43.5% R&D tax incentive) → Demo Day
- Graduation requirements: $1+ real payment, ABN registered, grant submitted, product live online, Demo Day — why we make it this strict
- Cohort economics: why your classmates are your future customers, partners and referrals
Q&A + open networking
After the demo, open Q&A with Lightman — ask anything about the bootcamp or about building your own product with AI. Followed by free networking to meet like-minded people in the room.
