// sound familiar?
You have the idea.
Now where do you click?
You've seen what AI can do. But choosing a tool, setting it up, and making it do your thing? That's where the questions start. Here, we slow it down and work through the steps.
01SEE WHAT WE'RE MAKING.
02FOLLOW THE STEPS AND TRY IT.
03SHARE WHAT WORKED. ASK WHERE YOU GOT STUCK.
(Nobody needs another tab full of things they'll learn someday.)
// what's inside right now
A place to get started.
Start a business.
Have an idea but no idea what to do with it? Start with short lessons and practical workbook activities. Work on your own idea, or build alongside your kid.
- Identify the problem you want to solve.
- Work through your name, mission, goals and pitch.
- Put your thinking into a simple business snapshot.
- Bring your questions to the community as you go.
Weekly guided builds.
A live group session to work through the steps, ask questions, and move a build forward. You can be learning for your job, starting something of your own, or helping your family try an idea.
- Thursdays, 6:30–7:30pm CT: the Weekly Guided Build.
- 2nd & 4th Sundays, 7:30pm CT: live Q&A.
- Check the Skool Calendar for each session's topic and host.
- Ask questions and share your work between sessions.
More things to make.
Creative AI and useful systems are part of where we're headed. These courses are coming soon; they aren't a finished library today.
- Cartoon Studio: characters, scenes and animated stories.
- UGC Content: creator-style product videos.
- YouTube Creator: planning and making your own videos.
- Build With AI: websites, simple apps and tools for everyday work.

// some things we've made
Built at the kitchen table.
The family builds are part of our story. With dad helping, the kids took ideas into the world. These projects show what's possible with practice and support; they aren't a promise of earnings.
BROOKS · a useful business idea
Texas Power Search
A confusing electricity bill became a project to help people compare Texas electricity plans.

Hey, we're Victor & Maureen.
Makes complicated tools make sense.Victor Cuevas
I'm an accidental instructional designer. I learn complicated systems, figure out how people actually use them, and teach the steps. I've taught business systems, Power BI, AI and creative tools. I still love the moment someone says, "Oh, I can do that."
My Michael Management profile lists 15 courses, 1,246 students and a 4.7 average rating. See my teaching history →

An entrepreneur who's done the work.Maureen Cappallo
Maureen founded and runs Momentus Real Estate Group. She brings the experience of running a real business to the questions behind the build: what problem you're solving, who it's for, and what to do next.
There's room for your idea.
You don't need a technical background. You might want to make something creative, use AI in your work, try a small business, or help your kid build. Start where you are.
We teach and practise together. We don't promise income, a new career, or a finished business in one sitting. You bring the curiosity and do the work. We'll help with the next step.

// a note from Victor
Bruce Wayne job by day. Dad of four the rest of the time. I know what it's like to have a head full of ideas and a calendar that says "good luck with that."
I love learning this stuff, and I love helping someone else figure it out. That's why the Jar is here. You don't have to know all the tools. Just start with something you want to make.
If you're not wobbling, you're not growing.
