The webinar
Start with evidence. Decide what’s worth testing.
No coding experience required. A laptop is recommended for the hands-on exercise.
We meet businesses where they are. Bring one real challenge inside your own business or venture—customer experience, operations, scheduling, service delivery, marketing, outreach, internal coordination, improving a current website, launching an offer, or something else entirely.
Talk with customers, staff, users, partners, or other affected stakeholders to separate evidence from assumptions. During the guided AI exercise, use those discoveries to explore a fit-for-purpose output: a landing page or website concept, a workflow, a useful internal tool, or a simple prototype. The goal is a concrete first step worth testing, not a guaranteed full app; sometimes the insight is what not to build. Free AI credits are not promised.
Optional prework
Bring one challenge and what you learned.
Prework is encouraged, not required. If feasible, start before the webinar so the hands-on exercise can be grounded in real business needs.
1. Identify one real challenge
Choose one challenge inside your own business or venture, whatever stage you’re at.
2. Seek 1–3 relevant conversations, if feasible
Talk with customers, staff, users, partners, or other affected stakeholders. Ask how they experience the challenge, and listen for evidence that supports or challenges your assumptions.
3. Log what you learn, if you’d like
If desired, use your own account at readinessintelligencelab.com, the separate Readiness Intelligence Lab software platform, to record your learning. Account setup is separate from webinar registration; no account is created automatically. You can participate without completing this step.
4. Bring your discoveries to the guided exercise
Bring whatever you learned to shape a fit-for-purpose output—a landing page or website concept, a workflow, a useful internal tool, or a simple prototype—and decide on a first step worth testing.
