AI for your job

What AI can take off your plate.

AI isn’t just for technical roles; it’s for repetitive work. Pick your function and see the three levels we train you through: save time, handle more work, then find what you’d miss.

Sales Sell more. Type less.

Research, follow-ups and CRM admin eat the hours you should spend with buyers. Hand them to AI and get back to selling.

Applied AI Bootcamp
Level 1 –
Save time
  • Account researchA one-page brief on any prospect before the call.
  • Follow-up emailsPersonalised follow-ups drafted straight from your call notes.
  • Proposal draftsA first draft that already speaks the client’s language.
Level 2 –
Handle more work
  • Lead qualificationScore inbound leads against your ideal customer profile.
  • CRM hygieneKeep deals updated from emails and meeting notes.
  • Objection prepRehearse the hard questions before the buyer asks them.
Level 3 –
Find what you’d miss
  • Pipeline riskSpot the deals that have quietly gone cold.
  • Win / loss patternsSee why you actually win, and where you keep losing.
  • Forecast checkPressure-test the number before it goes upstairs.

Where you’ll build

Not just a programme. A building.

Most AI courses teach a tool that is replaced in six months; we teach you to build AI systems, with practitioners who ship them every day and a curriculum updated every cohort. Inside Hatch Works, Sri Lanka’s leading tech and startup hub, founders and operators are your peers from day one.

Your instructors

Still in the field.

They’re not career teachers. They’re engineers and architects who happen to be exceptional at explaining the work they do.

FAQ · Our bootcamps

What people ask us first.

We run the Agentic AI Pathway for builders, the Applied AI Bootcamp for professionals, and the Enterprise AI Bootcamp for working developers. The answers below cover all three.

Which programme is right for me? +

Not technical and want AI doing the repetitive work in sales, finance, marketing, HR or operations? The Applied AI Bootcamp, no coding needed. Want to build production AI systems as a graduate, A-level student, career-changer or developer? The Agentic AI Pathway. Already a working developer building enterprise AI on Google Cloud or Microsoft? The Enterprise AI Bootcamp.

What is the Applied AI Bootcamp? +

An 8-Saturday, in-person cohort at Hatch Works, Colombo, for professionals who want to apply AI in their day-to-day work: finance, HR, sales and marketing, operations, team leads, managers and founders. You build a personal AI stack and seven real deliverables across the cohort.

Do I need a technical background for the Applied AI Bootcamp? +

No. There is no coding prerequisite and no prior AI experience needed. If you use a laptop for work, you are qualified. We set up and build everything together in the room.

When does the Applied AI Bootcamp run and what does it cost? +

The October 2026 intake starts Saturday 3 October: one session every Saturday for 8 weeks, 2pm to 6pm, in person at Hatch Works, Colombo, with the Week 7 hackathon build run online. LKR 65,000, including materials, tool access and your Certificate of Completion. The July 2026 intake has closed.

What is the Agentic AI Pathway, and when is the next intake? +

Two stackable, in-person bootcamps, LKR 120,000 each. Foundations gets you building real agentic AI applications (basic Python or JavaScript needed); Advanced takes them to production and ends with Demo Day in front of hiring companies. The next intake is the Advanced Bootcamp, starting November 2026, on Saturdays, 2.30pm to 6.30pm, at Hatch Works, Colombo. The next Foundations intake is to be announced.

Are jobs guaranteed? +

No. The Priority Placement Pathway guarantees your place in front of hiring decision-makers at the Advanced Bootcamp Demo Day, plus coaching to convert. Eligibility: 80% attendance, all assignments and all projects completed.

Can I pay in instalments? +

Instalment options available. Reach out for more information on WhatsApp (+94 76 925 6780) and we will walk you through them.

What do I walk away with? +

Applied AI: seven portfolio-ready capstone builds, a personal AI stack plus a library of 1,000+ tools, a peer-reviewed 90-day roadmap, a Certificate of Completion and access to HatchX, our graduate community. Agentic AI Pathway: production projects you present on Demo Day.
