Build Your First AI Agent - No Coding

Turn a recurring task into a reusable AI workflow. Build and test one focused prototype with Raven Majia Williams. What would you like AI to help you with on a regular basis? Researching a topic and putting together a brief? Turning your ideas into content drafts? Writing client follow-ups from your notes? In this small-group lab, Raven Majia Williams will walk you through building one focused AI agent prototype. You'll write the instructions in plain language and build it on a supported no-code platform. You'll learn how to: • Pick a specific job your agent can realistically handle. • Define what information it needs and what it should produce. • Write reusable instructions and give it reference material. • Set up a workflow that produces its output and then checks it. • Test how it handles missing information, mistakes, and unclear requests. • Decide what needs your review before it goes anywhere. Pick one starter project: • Content drafting assistant • Research-and-briefing agent • Client follow-up drafting assistant You'll work toward leaving with a working prototype, written operating instructions, and three test cases you can keep using to improve it. To be clear, this is a guided build. It isn't a promise of a fully autonomous business system. Account connections, scheduling, and external actions depend on the platform we use and the permissions you have. Who it's for: People who are already comfortable using AI and refining its responses. Take the beginner workshop first, or come with equivalent experience. What to bring: A charged laptop, your charger, one recurring task, and some sample material that isn't confidential. Free accounts are all you'll need. We'll share the software and account checklist after you register. No purchase is required, though we may recommend optional tools. Included: Live instruction, guided build time, an agent-planning template, and a testing checklist. This is a 3-hour session with a short break.
