Frequently asked questions
What exactly is in each tier?
101 is free: ten lessons on how to think about AI systems, free with an account. The builder course is $379: all 25 modules from the setup lab through the capstone, plus the downloadable prompts, memory files, skills, agents, workflows, and starter code.
Is this for me if I'm a non-builder role?
Start with the free 101 track if you do not write code. The builder course uses a terminal and coding agents, so expect to complete technical exercises even if you have no prior programming experience. The capstone (Module 25, the last one) lets you pick a use-case track that matches your role: business, personal, content, domain intelligence, internal tooling, ops, or research.
What do I need before starting?
A computer you can install software on, and accounts with the AI provider and tools the course walks you through in the free setup lab. Prior programming experience is optional, but comfort with a terminal and technical exercises is required. Beginner syntax instruction is outside the course. The exercises spend real API credits: budget a few dollars of API usage per module, and check current rates on your provider's pricing page. Running a local model is optional; every exercise has a path that does not require installing one, and anything you choose to install is your call after your own research.
When does access begin?
Immediately after checkout. All modules unlock at once; there is no drip schedule. Provisioning usually completes within a minute or two of payment. If access has not appeared, refresh the welcome page or email hello@codewithvibes.com.
What support is included?
Email support for access, billing, and refund issues: hello@codewithvibes.com. The course itself is self-paced text with no live calls, office hours, or community membership.
Can I buy from outside the US?
Yes. Checkout takes international cards and prices are in US dollars, so your bank may add its own conversion fee. The amount shown at checkout is what gets charged. Depending on where you live you may owe local tax on a digital purchase that is not collected at checkout, and settling that is on you.
Will this teach me to fine-tune?
No. Fine-tuning is mostly the wrong tool for the jobs covered. Module 7 covers fine-tuning embedding models as a last resort; for LLMs the honest answer is almost never. Most of what people reach for fine-tuning to fix is solved with better prompts, structured output, RAG, or a smarter routing layer, and the course shows how.
Will the included workflows work for my business out of the box?
No, by design. The skills, agents, workflows, and memory files are working systems, but none of it is one-size-fits-all. They run against a worked example business; making them yours means personalizing them to your business, your bottlenecks, and how you actually work. The work on these is never done: you keep updating, improving, and tuning them for as long as you run them. The course teaches you that habit, and it is the fun part.
Do I get updates?
There is no subscription and no renewal. Hosted access runs for as long as the course is offered, and if it is ever discontinued you keep the materials in downloadable form. When v1 content is revised you see the current version. A v2, if it ever happens, would be a separate product.
What's the refund policy?
Refunds are reviewed case by case within 14 days of purchase. Email refund@codewithvibes.com with your order number and what did not work, and a person reads it. How much of the course you have already worked through is the main thing that weighs against approval; there is no percentage cutoff in either direction. An approved refund ends your access and your licence to keep using the downloaded materials from that purchase. After 14 days, purchases are final. UK and EU consumers have a statutory 14-day right to cancel, which checkout asks you to end in exchange for immediate access; the refund page explains how that works and how to keep the full 14 days instead.
What is Code With Vibes?
Code With Vibes is a paid, self-paced AI coding agents course for building working software with Claude Code, Codex, or a similar terminal coding agent. Across 25 modules, the course moves from the first API call through data, retrieval, agents, evals, safety, and a capstone. All modules unlock when you buy.
How long will it take to finish?
Plan for 60 to 80 hours, including the capstone. At 6 to 7 hours a week, that is about 10 to 12 weeks.
