Software Academy Live

AI writes the code.
You design the system.

SamKis Software Academy teaches builders in the AI era what AI doesn't replace — architecture, data modelling, security, UX and product craft. The judgment that turns a prototype that demos beautifully into a product that survives its second user.

Curriculum

Eight tracks, from first principles to deployed.

Every system design course on the internet is preparing you for an interview. This one prepares you for your second user — architecture, process digitization and product craft applied to code that already exists and has to survive real people.

01

Foundations

How software actually runs — what your AI tools are doing under the hood.

02

Core Engineering

Data structures, algorithmic thinking, git and testing — the craft under the craft.

03

Full-Stack Web

The request lifecycle, React, APIs and databases — understood, not just generated.

04

System Design & Architecture

Scaling, data at scale, and the event-ledger pattern behind trustworthy systems.

05

Business Process Digitization

Reengineer a real process, then translate it into software — the step most builds skip.

06

Design & Product

UX, UI craft and polish — why some products feel world-class and most don't.

07

Advanced & AI-Native

Security, DevOps, RAG and agents — shipping systems people can bet a business on.

08

Ship It: Zero to Deployed

Follow a real app from empty repo to deployed — auth, a database you can trust, payments and a live URL. Your choice of two projects.

How it's taught

Built for how adults actually learn.

Every module works four ways — because you're learning between meetings, on drives, after the kids sleep.

READ

Read it

Concise, precise lessons — written for adults with real jobs, not CS undergrads.

HEAR

Hear it

Every section narrated. Learn on the drive, the walk, the wait.

WATCH

Watch it move

Animated system diagrams — watch requests, events and data actually flow.

PROVE

Prove it

Checkpoint quizzes with instant feedback. Progress you can see and certify.

Who it's for

Anyone can prompt an app into existence now.

Few can make it survive real users. Every builder hits the same walls — and none of them are about typing code.

AI-era builders

You already build with Cursor, Claude or v0. Learn the architecture, security and design judgment that makes your next build the one that lasts.

Professionals digitizing their own work

Accountants, operators, managers, owners: you know the process — now learn to turn it into software, taught in business language you already speak.

Complete beginners

Track 1 assumes nothing. Every concept is explained in plain language — often through business and accounting analogies, because that's how the founder learned it himself.

Anyone who's been burned once

No ledger, no audit trail, no idempotency — and the first payment retry double-charges. Learn the patterns that stop it happening twice.
