About Event

Use AI to hit your goals at 100x speed.

The work that used to cost thousands and take weeks, now costs pennies and takes 24 hours.

During this members only session, Toli Marchuk and Jason Graber will show you how to use AI to build the things you would normally pay thousands to outsource. A website. An app. A research report that reads like a senior analyst wrote it. An ad campaign. We will walk you through, at a high level, exactly how to go from an idea in your head to a real, working product using the right AI tools, with AI agents doing the heavy lifting. Then we will build something live, in front of you, so you can see the entire process end to end.

This is the clear, no-jargon overview most people never get. You will leave knowing which tools to use and when, the difference between chatting with AI and directing an agent to do real work, and how people are now producing ten times the output with ten percent of the effort.

What is Goalmaxxing?

Goalmaxxing is using AI agents to go from goal to reality at 100x speed. You do not write the code, design, or research yourself. You direct the agent. You bring the understanding of your problem, you turn it into a clear plan, and the agent does the building.

In 2026, all the tools exist to increase your output by 10x with 10% of the effort. The people who learn to use them move faster than their competition and their coworkers. This session shows you how that actually works, in plain terms, with a real build you can watch.

How work is done in 2026

Before: For years, getting a website or an app built meant one path:

  • Hire a developer or an agency

  • Pay $5,000 and up before you see anything

  • Wait weeks on back and forth

  • Get something built to their understanding, not yours

  • Pay again every time you want a change

In 2026: You work with your agent to get things done:

  • You and your AI agent, side by side

  • Plan, Research, Build together

  • Reusable skills for everything you make next

What to expect from this session

This is an intro built to show you what is possible and then prove it, live and unedited.

Your hosts are two builders who actually ship. Toli Marchuk has spent fourteen years building across software, community, and commerce, now run on AI agents, and his developer tool GoalBuddy has been starred on GitHub by figures that include the CEO of Shopify. Jason Graber took a ten-year-old software company fully AI-native, where agents now handle work that used to take a team. This is not theory from people who read about AI. It is how they work every day.

What you will walk away with

  • A straight answer to which tool to reach for and when: ChatGPT versus Claude, and what a local agent like Codex or Claude Code actually does for you

  • The real skill, directing AI agents instead of writing code, so the agent does the heavy lifting

  • Having watched a real product get built live, front end to back end, with nothing hidden behind a slide

  • A clear sense of what becomes possible: websites, apps, expert research, SEO, and ad campaigns you can run yourself, the work that used to cost thousands

What to bring

  • One idea you have been wanting to build. The more specific, the better.

  • Your real questions about AI, agents, and building.
