Got an AI idea but stuck in “demo” mode? Canvas Builders Program is a 2-week, YC-style sprint that turns your rough concept into a live, production-ready agent.





👋 Hey Product Hunt!
I’m Himanshu Kalra, CEO of Canvas AI, and today we’re launching the first cohort of our AI Builders Program: a 14-day crash course on building production-ready AI agents. This two-week sprint distills nearly two years of our team’s experience shipping multiple AI agents for both enterprises and startups. It also offers a glimpse into Canvas, our no-code platform that allows you to build and deploy AI agents effortlessly.
Think Lovable but for AI agents!
Who it’s for:
Founders, solopreneurs, and product managers willing to commit approximately 6 hours per week to build a product-ready AI agent. You’ll learn the fundamentals and delve into the nuances of GenAI. This is a hands-on, practical sprint, not just a theoretical overview, ensuring you’ll know exactly how and where to apply your new skills.
Why we designed this program:
We fundamentally believe that solid design patterns for creating reliable AI agents have begun to emerge. We’ve been fortunate to be at the forefront of learning and implementing these patterns. This unique position allows us to share practical, cutting-edge knowledge.
The program is a win-win for both participants and us. You’ll get hands-on experience using Canvas, our no-code tool, to build AI agents that can be shipped immediately. In return, we receive valuable initial feedback.
What you get:
The cohort will include five 1-hour group sessions, two one-on-one sessions with our mentors to help crystallize your project, and early access to our tool. Additionally, you’ll dedicate approximately five to six hours to building your own agent.
PH-exclusive perk 🚀
We’ve priced this at $50, for which you’ll receive equivalent credits to cover your AI agent build cost. However, for the Product Hunt community, use this link to register, and we’ll waive this cost for you.
@hkalra16 A much needed initiative. Will be there.
I’m genuinely excited about the Canvas AI Builders Program. This isn’t just another launch—it’s the result of nearly two years of hands-on research and learning, packed into a powerful 14-day sprint.
Can’t wait to see what people build and the creative agents that will come out of this program. The possibilities are endless—excited for the journey ahead!
This program offers a focused, YC-style sprint that’s perfect for turning AI ideas from rough demos into real, production-ready agents in just two weeks. A strong boost for creators ready to launch.
@supa_l Thank your for the comment Supa. Would love to figure out how we can continue disrupting / democratising this space.
@anoushka_srivastava1 Thanks Anoushka!
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
So excited to see our AI Builders Program out in the wild! As CTO at Canvas AI, I've seen firsthand how building truly production-grade AI agents goes way beyond just stringing a few API calls together. It’s about architecting for reliability, thinking through the nuances of agentic workflows, and ensuring you can iterate efficiently.
That’s the engineering DNA we've meticulously woven into this 14-day program. We didn't just want to share our learnings; we wanted to structure it like a focused engineering sprint – iterative, practical, and laser-focused on a shippable outcome. You'll get to apply these principles directly using Canvas, our platform designed to handle a lot of the underlying complexities so you can concentrate on crafting intelligent agent logic.
From a technical leadership perspective, my biggest thrill is empowering other builders. I'm genuinely keen to see how this hands-on experience helps you bypass common development hurdles and accelerate your journey from idea to a robust AI agent.
Would love to hear your thoughts, especially from those deep in the build process! What are the toughest nuts you're trying to crack in AI development? Let's chat! 🛠️
Hi, this product looks very interesting! I’m looking forward to trying it out
@vedantaparikh Thanks Vedant - look forward to getting the product into the hands of users soon.
🚀 Massive kudos to the Canvas team. You nailed the pain points that hold most AI projects back. 🙌
“From hallucination to iteration”—Canvas gets what it takes to build real AI tools. Been following the team for a while — they always deliver. This sprint is no exception. If you’re a founder trying to get into AI but don’t know where to start — this is it.
@vengal_rao Thanks Vengal
