Community Update: Cohort 1 is underway, guest slots and 1:1 mentorship now open
Six weeks. Real projects. Founding builders. Your chance is coming next.
Hey AgentBuilders,
I wanted to share some updates about the community with you.
1. AgentBuild Circles Cohort 1 has officially kicked off
For the next 6 weeks, a group of members that showed interest will be:
Building practical agentic workflows together.
Uploading working demos to the AgentBuild GitHub.
Showcasing their work in the newsletter and on LinkedIn.
A concrete portfolio piece to share in interviews, resumes, or posts.
Direct recognition as a Founding Circle member.
👉 Why does this matter?
Because Cohort 1 is the start of something bigger. These members are building real, portfolio-ready agents, and their names will be attached to the first public projects from this community. Learning AI is just a by-product.
If you missed out: don’t worry.
I’ll be announcing Cohort 2 registrations soon.
That will be your chance to join the next 6-week sprint and build alongside the community.

2. 1-to-1 Mentorship Slots
For September, I’m opening a limited number of one-to-one sessions with community members.
You can book a slot to:
Get unstuck on a technical project or career challenge.
Discuss career transitions into AI and data roles.
Get mentorship on where to start with AI/agents.
Explore strategies for building a personal brand in tech.
Or anything else you need a sounding board for.
📅 Book your session here: 1-to-1 Meetings with Sandi
Slots are limited, and they will go fast.
3. Guest Author Contributions
I am also opening up guest author slots for the AgentBuild newsletter. If you are good at technical writing and want to publish to a technical audience, here’s your chance.
We’re looking for articles on topics like:
Agentic AI 101 - learn Agentic AI step-by-step
Multi-agent orchestration
Evaluation & monitoring challenges
Data governance in AI workflows
Security & risks (e.g., prompt injection, jailbreaking)
Contributors will get:
Their work published under AgentBuild’s banner
Visibility across LinkedIn + the newsletter
Recognition as a community thought-leader
Featured on my LinkedIn posts
👉 If you are interested, send an email to support@agentbuild.ai with a short bio and prior examples of writing (blogs, articles, etc.)
⚡ What’s Next
This community is moving fast:
Circles are building.
Newsletter slots are opening.
1:1 coaching is available this month.
Future cohorts will expand opportunities for builders, writers, and contributors.
Stay close, reach out, engage. We are together in this.
Thanks,
