About Vibe Coding Academy

The listing sets out a 21-day path: automate with OpenClaw, find an app idea, build the V1 with Claude Code and put the app live.[2] Membership includes a Grok Bot Masterclass and live bootcamps, a Claude Code Masterclass, live coaching and weekly calls with Finn, app templates and starter kits, technical support and lessons on getting first customers.[2] As of September 2026, the academy's website named a Hermes Agent Bootcamp as its flagship, covering setup, memory, skills, automations and delegation, and said members also get the full OpenClaw bootcamp.[1] Its customer module covers documenting a build, posting about it on X and collecting signups.[1] The site says the academy is not for anyone looking for a get-rich-quick scheme, and that it has no affiliation with Anthropic.[1]

The site calls Finn an AI coding YouTuber and the solo builder of Creator Buddy, a product the owner's Skool bio also lists.[1][2] Finn's YouTube channel teaches Claude Code, Codex and other AI tools to beginners and covers AI news, tutorials and master classes.[4] Finn also writes a weekly newsletter of beginner-friendly guides on improving life with AI.[3]
