Frequently Asked

Common questions

Do I need prior experience with AI tools?
No. The Academy is designed to bring you from zero to fully operational — we start with the fundamentals of AI tools and build from there. If you already have experience, you'll move through the foundations quickly and go deeper in the advanced modules.
What software and tools do I need?
Most of the tools covered have free tiers or are low-cost. You'll need access to a computer, a camera or smartphone, and accounts with a few AI platforms (we walk through setup in Module 01). Full tool list and pricing breakdown included in the course.
How long do I have access to the course?
Lifetime. Once you enroll, the course is yours — including all future updates. As AI tools evolve, so does the curriculum. You'll always have access to the most current version.
Can I upgrade my tier after enrolling?
Yes. You can upgrade from Studio to Director or Executive at any time — just pay the difference. Contact us and we'll make it seamless.
What's the Notion OS and how do I access it?
The Notion OS is a set of 12 pre-built Notion templates that form a complete operating system for your creative business. They're delivered via Notion's share link — you duplicate them directly into your workspace and they're ready to use.

Building a data strategy for creative AI

8:21 Module 01 · Ep 02 Foundational

AI is the fuel that powers all creative capabilities and use cases — but first, you need a data strategy. In this lesson, Tommy explains why having clear creative inputs is the foundation of any productive AI workflow, and why most creators fail because they skip this step. You'll learn what "creative data" actually means, how to build a personal prompt library, and what it takes to prepare a consistent brief for AI production.
