Claude turns your ideas into a real, working website
This course is for you if you’re:
A founder starting out
You need a professional website for your new business, without hiring an agency or learning to code.
Stuck with an outdated site
Your business has grown, but your website hasn’t. Learn to redesign it yourself and keep it fresh.
A coach, consultant or creative
Your site is your storefront. Make it look as considered and premium as the work you deliver.
A designer who wants to build
Go beyond mockups. Use Claude to turn your designs into live, custom websites for your clients.
You’ll get results if you learn with us
A working design studio
Applet Studio designs websites and templates every day. You’ll learn the same workflow we use with real clients.
Made for non-technical founders
No jargon and no prior experience needed. Every lesson starts from zero and builds step by step.
One tool, learned properly
We focus on Claude, in depth, so you leave with a process you can repeat, not a pile of tips.
You own everything
No agency lock-in. You finish with a site you built, understand and can update yourself.
Design taste, not just tech
AI can build anything. We teach you what to ask for, so the result looks custom, not templated.
We turn founders into confident website builders
We won’t waste your time on made-up perks. Here are the advantages we can stand behind, the ones that set this course apart.
Designer’s eye, AI speed
Claude writes the code, but good websites start with good decisions. You’ll learn both the design thinking and the AI workflow.
Lessons are taught by Olga Kolgusheva, designer and founder of Applet Studio.
A practical format
Short video lessons, ready-to-use prompts, homework and a final project. You build your own site as you go.
No fixed schedule. Watch lessons whenever suits you and book calls when you need them.
Real feedback
Fast, honest and specific feedback is what makes learning stick, so it’s where we put the most care.
We’re genuinely invested in every student launching something they’re proud of.
